    The sound of the guitar when he bends the strings at 4:18 gives me goosebumps!!
    Always thought Bruce got undeserved criticism for his guitar playing style. He ain't no Mark Knopfler, who's a god on the guitar, who plays it completely different and with more "finesse". But the thing is, Bruce plays with passion and intensity, which is expressed in his solos. Bruce plays it like there's no tomorrow. I'd say he's an underrated guitar player, and incredibly fast in those young years. Love this!

    *** 'But if dreams came true, oh, wouldn't that be nice' ***
    On this day in 1978 {June 2nd} Columbia Records released Bruce's fourth studio album, 'Darkness On The Edge of Town'...
    It peaked at #5 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart...
    Two tracks were released as singles; "Prove It All Night" {it peaked at #33 on July 16th, 1978} and "Badlands" {reached #42 on September 17th, 1978}...

    Back in the day Bruce played a Les Paul with a Marshall stack and that guitar was thunder!! He played rhythm and lead guitar and was known as 'Alvin Lee By the Sea'. He's since toned down that amazing crunch and reduced the role of the power guitar in his music. You had to be there to believe it, his playing alone gave you the 'chills' - incredible.

    • @sparkspark2314

    There is no one like Bruce. I like classic rock. I like Motown. I like opera. I like jazz, John Coltrane and Charlie Parker. I like some rap. Still, Bruce is unique. Melissa Etherige called Springsteen Shakespeare set to music. He is my favorite. I thought he was finished until he had his PBS interview with Charlie Rose. Then, Bruce came out with The Rising, which is excellent. My favorite song of Springsteen, New York Serenade.

  • @oipbhakeld
    @oipbhakeld 15 років тому

    right on brother. you are not a brainwashed "subject" of springsteen who thinks that just b/c he made the song it has to be spectacular. way to keep the faith and look at things objectively. how could ne one beat the 78 tour or the 75 hammersmith show? he was a God back then. his performances in those early years will never be matched by anyone again. dont worry about peeps givin u thumbs down either, they are all idiots. and btw, i envy you so much. i wish i could have gone to early shows

  • @oipbhakeld
    @oipbhakeld 15 років тому

    nah son, im saying that bruce is a great guitar player and deserves recognition as such. its like this, clarence clemens isnt the best sax player ever, but in my opinion he plays sax for the best band ever, which makes him great, b/c he contributes to the best music ever made, in my opinion. thats all im saying. i love pre 1980 springsteen, especially the hammersmith show. seriously, watch saint in the city from the hammersmith show. first time i saw that, it changed my life.

  • @GrafficGuy
    @GrafficGuy 15 років тому

    I'm sorry but I am also a guitar player and have been playing for many years. If I played you some files from Bruce's late 60's early 70's Les Paul/Marshall stuff you would be totally surprised - and I don't mean the crap that keeps getting posted on UA-cam. He's actually a great guitarist - maybe not technically the 'best' , but he plays with a lot of feeling that most players never get - no matter how many years they play. His early stuff-think Winter, Clapton, Stills, Hendrix, but very edgy.

  • @GrafficGuy
    @GrafficGuy 15 років тому

    Yes, and to all the 'expert' guitar players (who totally overlook Bruce in their 'who's great' discussions), I challenge you to create this kind of energy in your playing. Bruce has a very distinctive raw style, his bends and his 'feel' for the guitar are simply amazing. Max uses mainly Bruce's guitar to monitor every concert - Bruce even makes his rhythm playing look effortless - he routinely nails complicated rhythm parts without even a glance at his axe.

  • @pvd5019
    @pvd5019 15 років тому

    Listen to Racing in the Street from 78 and then listen to it from 08. The e street band of 78 didn't know how to handle a song like racing in the street, springsteen barked the words and try to get the end to be anthemic, where as now the band allows the music to build as it should. Are they as good now? No, but they're a different band. They're much more mature now. These old shows were all about energy, and while they were great the band didn't know how to pump the brakes.

  • @plofus
    @plofus 16 років тому

    all the versions of this from that legendary 78 tour are fantastic and different in their own way, iv'e only been able to read about that tour over the years,it's so cool to see this stuff on you tube,i think every song except badlands which was the first song from the passaic show is available on youtube,you can easily find the setlist from that show and practically watch the concert on yt the songs not available in full like backstreets you can get from another show on that tour like landover.

  • @crowdpub
    @crowdpub 12 років тому

    If I am not mistaken I was at that concert if it was at Gammage ---- which incidentally was the last time they let a rock concert perform there ---- the back balconies were shaking ------ I had front row tickets - and I saw him two nights in a row ---- I worked at Diamonds - which had a ticket outlet ----- I was first in line .

  • @oipbhakeld
    @oipbhakeld 15 років тому

    i just watched his 2000 nyc performance of prove it all night. i was so discusted i had to come here to listen to the song as it should be played and sung. im so happy this video exists. it brings me joy everyday of my life to be able to see the boss back when he was the boss ripping that shit up on guitar. and all the energy, omg, i just cant live w/o it.

  • @GrafficGuy
    @GrafficGuy 15 років тому

    ...and BTW - he NEVER plays like that anymore, and I don't know why. For a while he was known as THE hot guitarist at the Jersey Shore - and they had some excellent players in some of those Shore bands. He gave it up and sticks to very simple expressive lines now - whatever - this 'guitar greats' stuff is all so subjective anyway. Stevie and Jimi were great, no doubt.

  • @oipbhakeld
    @oipbhakeld 16 років тому

    ive listened to a lot of bruce from his different years. and i have to say, the biggest dissapointment ive ever had when it comes to bruce is when i saw him live in 2005. but his voice, in my opinion, sounded best in 1978. omg what id give to see this concert live! but thats just a dream. to reiterate- he sounds like shit now, sounds awesome back then, when he was the BOSS

  • @MzSunnyJeep

  • @plofus
    @plofus 15 років тому

    i agree that alot of the older songs thunder road in particular just don't sound as good live now,but he nails the newer stuff from the rising on,but who could sound as good thirty years later,i'm intersted to see what he does at the super bowl.

    I was a rock critic during Bruce's heydey and his Dec. 15 SF Winterland show is my second favorite of all time (833 shows). This video brings back such great memories! I took another critic friend to Bruce that night (he'd never seen them yet) and he spent the whole time on the way to the show saying "I just don't see what you guys see in him" I let him write the review, and still have a copy. He concluded "This was the greatest rock concert I've ever seen!" Bruce could do that to you. Thanks!

    Look at how young these guys were. I was 17 when they did this. Look at Max Wienberg the drummer doesnt look the part of a late 70's Drummer (Bonham, Moon, Pert... to name a few drummers of his era). Just a great great band

  • @sparkspark2314
    @sparkspark2314 2 роки тому

    One of the best solos I’ve heard from him on this. He did a bunch of improvisational things, mixing up what he was doing, noise, counter point, melody line variations, flash licks, emotional bends, varying quite a bit from the records mid break solo section…all this varying from most of his standard approaches to soloing in this tune live. I was quite surprised. I really wish he hadn’t shelved the guitar god bit. Him and Miami Steve would have been truly legendary in this area if they had really cut loose. But they pretty much left a lot on the table in that regard. Oh well…

  • @oipbhakeld
