More detailed info: click
DETAILS:
ONE show, triple bill, with the 5-member BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN BAND headlining. The support acts were acoustic trio NASH, LARGE & ROSS (who opened) and SUNNY JIM. This was an afternoon, outdoor show orchestrated by Tinker West's Blah Productions. Garfield Park is located at the intersection of Broadway and Ocean Ave, near the ocean.
The above-mentioned 10-song, partial setlist is culled from a 66-minute audience recording of this show, none of which has ever appeared on any mainstream boot and all of which remains in very limited circulation. Unfortunately the taper utilized a cheap recording device. The sound quality is consistent but is weak (fair), although it's not horrible.
While the opening seconds of Little Queenie are missing, all other songs are complete. However this BSB performance apparently lasted nearly 2hrs, so there's quite a bit missing and discernable edits can be heard in between songs on the audio source.
The BSB line-up for this show is Springsteen, Van Zandt, Sancious, Tallent and Lopez. Although Bruce handles all the lead vocals, the performance is unusual in that Springsteen is on piano for most of these 10 songs from this show. Sancious plays the organ and Steve Van Zandt handles much of the guitar chores. Tinker West guests on congas on
Dance Dance Dance and the rousing finale Jumbeliah (which also features an
unidentified walk-on troupe of backing vocalists consisting of inner circle
troops and members of both undercard bands). Highlights of this show are The
Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (the only known Springsteen performance and its
great), as well as the only known audio of two Springsteen compositions, It's Time To Go Home (also known by the title Festival) and
You Better Be Nice To Me.
