On this date: Bruce releases The Rising, his first E Street Band album in 18 years. Watch the day’s festivities inside. Plus: the premiere of “All the Way Home” in 1992, reggae versions of “Born in the U.S.A.” and “My Hometown,” and more.
No other highlight from this date can top our lead story: Bruce’s legendary East Berlin show in front of 300,000 energized, galvanized Germans.
