Bruce tends to write a LOT of songs, polish them THEN select songs that best fit his album's theme. I think this song was written around the time of Born in the USA album. It would have fit in with its hometown life theme. Also not sure why he didn't put it out as a B-side to one of the singles.
There was only so much room on Born in The USA. When pressing a vinyl record, too much audio on one side causes the overall sound to suffer. And this song wouldn't have fit on Tunnel of Love.
agree it's a great tune especially live, of course, which is why its live versions are better known than any studio version. My guess he didn't include it is that the song is too long (it would have been the longest song on Born in the USA, from whose sessions the song came about) with lots of rocking out that's more appealing in a live setting. It's also somewhat monotonous and the era's production techniques don't in my mind mesh well with the song; the gated drums and synthesizers characterizing many of the songs on Born in the USA have no place in this raw tune.
This is when this band is at it's best. Playing on a small stage, in a small, crowed bar, and they are all close together on stage. Just like the 70's.
"So you keep a little secret down deep inside your dresser drawer For dealing with the heat you're feelin'- out on the killin' floor No matter where you step you feel you're never out of danger So, the comfort that you keep's a gold-plated-snub-nose-thirty-two WELL, I heard you got a job downtown, man that leaves your head cold !" This is JUST SCREAMING purgatory, doom, and destruction..... He fucking kills it.
Steven Hodgson I caught Bruce at the stone pony one night ....was sitting at the end of the bar with his hat tucked low when all of a sudden he stood up grabbed a guitar and played a hour and 45 minute set Best 2 hours of my life
Both Bruce and Elvis are Kings of Music; each in their own very unique and fabulous ways. How can you compare one human being to another or one great musican to another? Just enjoy them.😊
I don't know why this wasn't on Born In The USA. It's a great album, make no mistake, but if this had made the cut, it would have been his first #1 single. Guarantee that. It's beyond ass-kicking. I am glad we got to hear it, though. He could have just as easily kept this gem in the vaults forever. Makes me wonder what else from those sessions that didn't make the cut. Let's hear 'em, Bruce!
I had to wait 25 years to finally see and hear the song "Murder Incorporated". it to me is some of his most passionate work. The beat, guitar licks/ solo and drumwork in conjunction with everything else-makes it a monster driving and action song.
What was wrong with the opening theme to 'Sopranos'? It seemed perfect and so well threaded to the landscape being passed through, providing so much information and context for what viewers were about to see. The series included murders but was about corruption, arrogance, cynicism, greed and criminality as joint causes at work.
"The comfort that you keep's a gold-plated snub nose .32" is one of my favourite Springsteen lines. Along with almost every line in "Badlands". This is a great, GREAT song, really underrated
this song kills coming from a guy who's played metal all of his life and love's all music from Hagard to steely Dan and not particularly a boss fan but when a song is strong you just have to tip your hat!!!
I play this song everyday to warm up ..first thing. It kicks ass. Fun as hell and easy. Neighbors aren't all digging it but they need to get out of bed...it's 5 am for God's sake 😅
To make such a powerful rock and at low revolutions is one of the virtues of bruce. He did it also in the lp of darkness and in many other great songs. He is the best !!
On this day in 1995 {February 21th} for the first time in seven years, Bruce Springsteen performed live with the E Street Band, the venue was the Tramps Nightclub in New York City... "Murder Incorporated" would be the first song performed in a thirteen song set... Thirty-five years earlier in 1960 Peter Falk would receive a 'Best Supporting Actor'* nomination for the movie 'Murder, Inc.'... * Lost to another Peter; Peter Ustinov for 'Spartacus'...
2024 - Clarence Clemens, RIP, he was a real talent and sorely missed. I got a real appreciation for him when he played with Jerry Garcia Band,,,Stellar Stuff ❤❤❤
Bobby's got a gun that he keeps beneath his pillow Out on the street your chances are zero Take a look around you (come on now) It ain't too complicated You're messin' with Murder Incorporated Now you check over your shoulder everywhere that you go (oh yeah) Walkin' down the street there's eyes in every shadow (oh yeah) You better take a look around you (come on now) That equipment you got's so outdated (come on now) You can't compete with Murder Incorporated Everywhere you look now, Murder Incorporated So you keep a little secret down deep inside your dresser drawer For dealing with the heat you're feelin' out on the killin' floor No matter where you step you feel you're never out of danger So the comfort that you keep's a gold-plated snub-nose thirty-two I heard that you You got a job downtown, man, that leaves your head cold (oh yeah) Everywhere you look life ain't got no soul (oh yeah) That apartment you live in feels like it's just a place to hide When you're walkin' down the street you won't meet no one eye to eye Now, the cops reported you as just another homicide But I can tell that you were just frustrated From living with Murder Incorporated (Murder) Incorporated Everywhere you look now, Murder Incorporated Come on now, baby Murder Incorporated Everywhere you turn, it's Murder Incorporated Come on now, darling
If like this song then check out "Further on down the road" from "The Rising" album - it's this song on Meth. And there is a brilliant live version of "Further on Down the Road" recorded in Dublin (2006) that's more Folkey, but just as good. Various postings on UA-cam.
Murder Incorporated Is A Killer Kick-Ass Song By Bruce Springsteen And The East Street Band It Totally Rocks Needs To Be Fully Cranked Up All The Way Up To Full Maximum Volume.
Кто со мной в 2024 году, слушает Брюса? Шикарная песня!!!!!!!!!
One of the best Bruce songs ever I don't know why it was never released the first time. Still get chills when I hear it.

This song reflects the state of 🇺🇸
in 2020.
Think about it.
Your thoughts here..................

Immenso
Exactly.
One of my favorite Bruce songs! Can listen to it over and over and it never gets old.....
He’s dead fool
Yeah, not a big boss fan, but this could be his best song.
REAL Americans playing kick ass rock and roll.
"So you keep a little secret down deep inside your dresser drawer

This is JUST SCREAMING purgatory, doom, and destruction.....
He fucking kills it.
You forget that Bruce Springsteen is more than music.
Have seen Springsteen several times, but always in arenas or stadiums. In a club like that must be incredible.
It is unreal in a club
I have seen him at the stone pony when he just showed up unreal it can not be described
Steven Hodgson I caught Bruce at the stone pony one night ....was sitting at the end of the bar with his hat tucked low when all of a sudden he stood up grabbed a guitar and played a hour and 45 minute set
Best 2 hours of my life
@@ftankpyle7253 you're lucky!

One of Bruce’s best decisions was bringing back Van Zandt and retaining Nils
Bruce decided? Friends like that it's more like Stevie showed up at the bosses house started playing again,
Can you believe that the Boss is 71 years old
95
This is one of my favorite Bruce Springsteen song next to Human Touch and Tunnel Of Love
For those that say that there isn't a God, I'd tell them to watch this!!!!! The Boss!!!!! Can't wait to see him for the first time on Sunday!!!!
@thomasmorgan9365, with a lawyer! My name is Lewis Robert Burton Jr!
@thomasmorgan9365 you sure can't trust a cop in Thomasville Georgia! My name is Lewis Robert Burton Jr!
Imagine catching those very early performances of Bruce and Clarence and the Band in those Jersey shore clubs????
Springsteen is a fucking Poet.
WAS a poet. Prior to that dismal The Rising album.
Both Bruce and Elvis are Kings of Music; each in their own very unique and fabulous ways. How can you compare one human being to another or one great musican to another? Just enjoy them.😊
- Bruce "The Boss" Springsteen 🎵🎼🎶🎤🎸😎👊
I miss Clarence, RIP Big Man.

...what a blistering preformance of this song...this would have been an amazing show to go to...
"out on the street your chances are zero"........my favorite line
@brainsick213 In your house now too! ZERO CHANCE! My name is Lewis Robert Burton Jr!
I had to wait 25 years to finally see and hear the song "Murder Incorporated". it to me is some of his most passionate work. The beat, guitar licks/ solo and drumwork in conjunction with everything else-makes it a monster driving and action song.
Pure high octane gut punch rock and roll
🎸 🔥
such an under rated track - love it, my fave
The ultimate song reflecting today's world and what's coming...
Just the right sound , and on the ball .
You can see the future?
@@bensmyth450 i have premonitions sometimes.
@michaelburland7932! It's right here right now! My name is Lewis Robert Burton Jr!
Should have been the the opening song for the HBO's Sopranos...especially with Steven Van Zandt being playing a role in the show..
SO TRUE.
What was wrong with the opening theme to 'Sopranos'? It seemed perfect and so well threaded to the landscape being passed through, providing so much information and context for what viewers were about to see. The series included murders but was about corruption, arrogance, cynicism, greed and criminality as joint causes at work.
Spot on
That's why he is " The Boss"!
This is Bruce's 2nd best guitar work, Prove it all Night solos from the 70s #1
how can, seriusly, someone be that good? I'll never find the answer
"The comfort that you keep's a gold-plated snub nose .32" is one of my favourite Springsteen lines. Along with almost every line in "Badlands". This is a great, GREAT song, really underrated
Best live version of this song I've ever seen, in da club !!
This song would hit even hard with a saxophone
When I hear this song, my volume must go right up! It accurately reflects the current state of our world.
This song is even more relevant these days
Bruce is not called the BOSS for nothing, really great song!
this song kills coming from a guy who's played metal all of his life and love's all music from Hagard to steely Dan and not particularly a boss fan but when a song is strong you just have to tip your hat!!!
You're dead on right there.. when the music moves you.. you know it, you feel it.. 💜✌️
Fell in love with this song after first hearing it on the NYC Live DVD 🤘
probably my fave springsteen song
Mine too! It's Been the one for years...
95
Just plain old good rockin around.
I can't live even a day without the song. Thank you Bruce!
Back when Bruce looked and sounded jacked!
Love this song. Period. Nuthin else to say. 💜✌️
One of the top 8 idk it's great last night
Just got cooler and cooler as time went by...and continues to to this day!
Unbelivable that less than a million people have watched this video. We've got to make up for that!
Done!
One of his most underrated tracks that's for sure
I play this song everyday to warm up ..first thing. It kicks ass. Fun as hell and easy. Neighbors aren't all digging it but they need to get out of bed...it's 5 am for God's sake 😅
This music will be remembered in centuries
To make such a powerful rock and at low revolutions is one of the virtues of bruce. He did it also in the lp of darkness and in many other great songs. He is the best !!
Incomparable !! I love Bruce !!
95
One of his top 10 songs
Take note, music wannabes, this is what a legend looks and sounds like.
Great work. Should be played more. Springsteen at his best!!
This is why he is the BOSS
Still a killer song in 2020
It’s the best when Bruce yells - Murder incorporated !
On this day in 1995 {February 21th} for the first time in seven years, Bruce Springsteen performed live with the E Street Band, the venue was the Tramps Nightclub in New York City...

This song should have been left on the Born in the USA album.
my all time fav song... everywhere you look life aint got no soul..🏅
Magnificent.
BRILLIANT GOOD ON YA MATE
Max Weinberg: most underrated drummer in rock n' roll?
Probably. The best that has ever been. The life, soul & rythym of the band. Mass
ive respect for him.
The whole fucking band is underated
New York Minute by Joan Jett sung by Don Henley is about the first guy.
@@sunspotdawn1261 Joan Jett?
The Mighty Max
This song was always sooooo good!
Uno de mis temas favoritos de Bruce
A truly Bruce song if there ever was one!

SO Fu*****ing GREAT !!! :D
God made man
Broooooce made music
Bobby's got a gun that he keeps beneath his pillow
Out on the street your chances are zero
Take a look around you (come on now)
It ain't too complicated
You're messin' with Murder Incorporated
Now you check over your shoulder everywhere that you go (oh yeah)
Walkin' down the street there's eyes in every shadow (oh yeah)
You better take a look around you (come on now)
That equipment you got's so outdated (come on now)
You can't compete with Murder Incorporated
Everywhere you look now, Murder Incorporated
So you keep a little secret down deep inside your dresser drawer
For dealing with the heat you're feelin' out on the killin' floor
No matter where you step you feel you're never out of danger
So the comfort that you keep's a gold-plated snub-nose thirty-two
I heard that you
You got a job downtown, man, that leaves your head cold (oh yeah)
Everywhere you look life ain't got no soul (oh yeah)
That apartment you live in feels like it's just a place to hide
When you're walkin' down the street you won't meet no one eye to eye
Now, the cops reported you as just another homicide
But I can tell that you were just frustrated
From living with Murder Incorporated
(Murder) Incorporated
Everywhere you look now, Murder Incorporated
Come on now, baby
Murder Incorporated
Everywhere you turn, it's Murder Incorporated
Come on now, darling
Incredibile!Grande.Boss.
Gorgeous!!!
One of my very fave songs!
jeannie arnold Such s great song, it's 1st on my playlist

Very Expendable lyrics,Totally brilliant and true.
Badd ass song from Bruce, just love it
Saw him in Coventry last night. Phenomenal, my favourite song
