Watch Bruce send Giants Stadium off to meet the wrecking ball with an appropriately timed cover of one of The Rolling Stones’ earliest hits.
Simultaneously morbid and mirthful, “Cadillac Ranch” bears surprisingly deep substance beneath its rollicking veneer.
In a historic one-off performance, Bruce joined Ringo Starr, Billy Preston, Nils, Clarence, Levon Helm, Dr. John, and more for the All-Starr Band’s first live performance of “Get Back.”
Fierce, fresh, and irresistible, The Bishop’s Daredevil Stunt Club revitalizes and electrifies Bruce’s greatest hit.
The tale of “Johnny 99” is an ironic one: on vinyl, it’s one of Bruce’s finest songwriting achievements, but on stage it loses power as it gains relevance.
Almost a quarter-century after Bruce’s legendary show in East Germany, Bruce honored his Berlin audience’s history by opening his Wrecking Ball show with Wizz Jones’ 1973 classic.
Achingly beautiful and deeply sad, the folks behind Scary Pockets deliver a gorgeous arrangement of “Born in the U.S.A.” that will have you hearing the song in an entirely new light.
Part work song, part call to action, and one of Bruce’s best and most Springsteenian songs, “Shackled and Drawn” is also Bruce’s best show opener ever.
Too many team-ups! “Mustang Sally” is one of those songs you just gotta play with someone else, I guess, because the list of Bruce’s “Mustang Sally” guest spots is a long one.
