This tour in my opinion marked the highpoint skill wise of the band.They were so tight after so many tours and recording tigether.They did some cool versions of songs and seemed to experiment more..Im obviously not saying it was their best tour because it definitely wasnt....I mean Darkness and BTUSA are two of the greatest tours in the history of Rock period, Right up there with the Stones in "69 & '72 Zeppelin in '73 and '75.The Who in '69 to name a few.The band was playing at such a high level that they had to stop for a full decade to let everyone else catch up
This came out along the 70's on a bootleg, triple album live...that i was lucky enough to buy in Paris, illegally of course, but Bruce never said anyrhing about bootlegs, and let people edit what they want LOL
Now my ma she fingers her wedding band And watches the salesman stare at my old man's hands He's tellin' us all 'bout the break he'd give us If he could but he just can't Well if I could I swear I know just what I'd do❤
So this is the count-in I've been hearing at the end of "Trapped", the version I've been listening to since 1985 on the We Are the World album. Good to know...
Tunnel of love marked my las year of carrer (Medicine) in Venezuela. Was also the las year of stability. A milestone. One of the greatest songns ever. Thanks.
Bruce was indubitably aided on his road to fame by having the excellence of the musicians of the ESB, but the reverse is true - the ESB benefited from Bruce’s strong frontman skills and his songwriting skills. Together they were and still are unique. How many in the audience pause to remember that this song was part of The Rising LP which was written in response to 9/11. It is great sing-along to, but Bruce has the audience in his hands and can quieten them easily so that the verses are not overwhelmed by their enthusiasm. Rule on ,Bruce and the band.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As usual Bruce’s cover is excellent. I remember the 1963 recording by the Phil Spectre group The Crystals.Iit takes me back to my teenage years. I wonder if Bruce and whichever group he was leading sang it in the clubs of Asbury Park. I can see him singing it there with all the girls going wild! I love these old songs.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I know Bruce didn't like the band recordings of the Nebraska songs, but Highway Patrolman really sounds great with discrete band contributions! It sounds somewhat halfway between the '82 outtake A Good Man Is Hard To Find (the closest we can get to an "E Street Band Nebraska") and future '87 songs like Walk Like A Man or When You Need Me due to Bruce's voice that clearly matured in '84 compared to '82 and was leaning towards his late 80s singing style! Brilliant performance, I love the more intimate, depressed studio version but this live version is just thrilling!
❤excelente bruce e a banda sempre arrasando todo dia no meu trabalho tenho prazer de ouvir essa musica e outras musicas o dia todo parabéns pelo sucesso deus te abençoe
