1. not a coincidence that the last one is Paradise
  2. Ah yes, thanks for that. What a man, what a song. Knew it would work solo piano
  3. How would this have gone as Darkness?

    Badlands
    Adam Raised a Cain
    Something in the Night
    Candy's Room
    Because the Night
    Racing in the Street

    The Promised Land
    Factory
    Streets of Fire
    Prove It All Night
    Darkness on the Edge of Town
    The Promise
  4. can the perfection be more perfect?

    maybe i'm used to Darkness as it is since decades so i would not change anything
    i like The Promise being that "out of context" gem it is even though it takes ages to have it released
    Because The Night, i love the song but i'd see an out of water fish in the album

    anyway who else can left those 2 big out of an album .. and in the period he was!
  5. i suspect side one would be too long for vinyl
  6. I love this version, not really sure about side length or not
  7. .. and about The Promise .. a wonderful version just passed through my ears .. Seattle 78
  8. Every version is a wonderful version
  9. Can anyone tell me why the hell you would go along to a Bruce concert and request cover songs (other than Bruce's famous or common covers that he made his own, Jersey Girl, Raise Your Hand, Trapped, etc) - Brown Eyed Girl (premiere was a sign request), Seventh Son, Hang on Sloopy, You Really Got Me (premiere sign request again), etc?

    I mean really, why go along and request an obscure cover? By all means request an obscure Bruce song like Iceman or something, but I just don't get the cover request thing..
  10. idiots that's who, people who shouldn't be allowed out. Jersey girl, absolutely, trapped, absolutely, raise your hand, while collecting signs. After that, no, never, stop it. He spouts the 'we were a bar band and we had to play covers' rubbish. They were never a bar band, it's a myth like many other he perpetuates and that band he's referring to is not THIS band. That band was the sancious/lopez version. If they were a cover band these wouldn't be premieres, most of the covers in let's say 74/75 were the same from night to night eg when you walk in the room etc. He's playing to the thick folk who don't know the likes of iceman etc but will bounce about to something they've heard a million times before but even then some of them couldn't tell you who it was by. You'll get them all jumping around to brown eyed girl or you really got me but how many would go to a van morrison or ray davies (the kinks might attract the tick off the list brigade so i'm not being specific) gig? two or three tops.Get rid of twist and shout, american land, this little light, shout etc etc and stop the messing about. If people are paying that amount of money they are going to hear his songs not satisfaction - go see the stones they whipped his arse anyway this year.
  11. Yeah I just don't get it. I'd rather hear 99% of Bruce songs than a random cover
  12. probably the same folk who would buy an xfactor/american idol/whatever talentless local show anyone gets crap cover version of 'hallelujah' but wouldn't know jeff buckley and even less leonard cohen if he knocked them down. Mind if jeff buckley knocked them down they should be straight on the phone to the pope cos they'd probably have witnessed the second coming.
