  • My god what were you doing when you were 24? I can tell you I was doing nothing compared to this.

  • Don't forget to pick up Hazy Davy & Killer Joe...

  • Im 14 and i have loved Bruce since i was 7....Thats right.

  • Why are we telling our age? My mom bought me the essential Bruce Springsteen 3 cd set this year for my 17th birthday I literally cried >.<

  • Doesn't matter how old you are, you're suppose to like this stuff!

  • i am 15 and springsteen has been my hero since i was 17

  • @73reider hows that possible?

  • @dildossmellfunny Its not possable, Its just a sarcastic dig at some of the inane comments i have seen on this thread.

  • @73reider oh my bad. i was a bit slow on the up take.

  • Damn..

    

  • i am 17 and springsteen has been my hero since I was 15 .

  • i think its great these old clips arew available and they sound great, but there is no way the drums here are not overdubs; although very probably done by vini himself (he still plays around jersey). virtually EVERY live album you know and love from the 70s was "fixed" in some way or another, and the sync is off a bit here. not to mention, no live drums sounded that sharp in the 70s.

  • I cannot believe I was only 14 at the time! This is my all-time most favorite Bruce song. GREAT video of it, too. Spirit of the times. :)

  • sounds so much better than with 13 other people on stage...

  • Clarence was the man. RIP

  • The Big Man died yesterday, bummer. I felt like listening to him. Rest in Peace Clarence. Thanks for the music and the memories. The E Street Band will never be the same.

  • Me and crazy Wendy was makin' love in the dirt, singin' our birthday song.

  • Going to miss the big guy. Rest well Clarence.

  • who could give this a thumbs down

  • RIP Clarence! What a great performance of this classic!

  • Goodnight, BigMan

  • Goodnight, BigMan

  • RIP Clarence - the gypsy angels dancing tonight

  • Jammin with the big band in the sky

  • R.I.P. Big Man

  • Clarence Anicholas Clemons, Jr. — January 11, 1942 – June 18, 2011

  • rip big man... things will never be the same...

  • Awesome!

    RIP Big Man!

  • rest in peace clarence clemons; sax genius, dominator of one o' the finest bruce springsteen songs 'spirit in the night.' Music lives on

  • 16!!! i beat you :P :D

  • Go Clarence Clemons! Get back soon! :) Great big man! The best saxophone :)

  • I'm 6'1 and I like pears. Sesame Street rulez. :D

  • SuperPhilobeddoe this song is on greetings from asbury park nj

  • I am 41 and I like this too, I was 3 when Bruce was performing this on this particular day in 1973...its timeless...my two boys(7-9) will be able to relate to this when they're 18

  • the wild, the innocent and the e street shuffle is bruce's best album.

  • 28 here

  • i find myself playing this over and over. AWESOME upload!! thanks for that!!!

  • Reminds of so many wasted(?) teenage summer nights. Going to the hills or going to the lakes.

  • partied so hard jammin' bruce back in the day. LOVE THIS SONG!!! and lol at the ages.

  • Fabulous clip ... great audio and visual quality. This song strikes such a deep chord, evokes powerful memories of spirits of past nights ... whoa!

  • i am 16 too, love this song, favourite on the album

  • i'm 20.. haha

  • I'm 20 and consider Bruce the last hope for America

  • My favourite song from Springsteen! (I'm 16, since everyone's sharing age lol.)

  • Is this the 1st Video footage of Bruce with the band?

  • Remarkable!!!  Thanks for sharing

  • Darren have you told everyone about me singing this to you while I was driving the other day?

  • GREAT SPRINGSTEEN CLIP!!

    

  • Springsteen forever !!!

  • good music is good music no matter your ages good for u guys

  • @MitchDouglas I'm 19 and i LOVE it.

  • Im 20 and grew up listening to Bruce. No one in todays music can compare!

  • i'm 17, and i saw them last year at the united center in chicago, and they freakin blew my mind. I doubt i ever saw anyone as good as them in my life, and i doubt i will again in this age of incoming musicians.

  • Shhhhhh. Just listen.

  • i bet bruce has hit some poontang in his time.

  • Absolutely the best video of the song I've ever seen. Very cool!

  • I do remember The Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix 1973- in the round...

  • Doesn't Get much better than this !

  • Bruce and Meatloaf? ever play together?

  • Holy crap. Youtube (and the people who make it great) are amazing. What the hell else exists out there?

  • saw them in January '73 @ Monmouth College. mind blowing live. saw Steel Mill and Child in various church basements and Garfield park Long branch N.J.. I think I was lucky

  • This absolutely blows my mind that it was 37 years ago :O Some music is timeless.

  • I never did listen to one song more than, say 5 times a day, but this song changes it. E Street Band in 1973+Bruce on piano=addictive

  • Vini "Mad Dog" Lopez was a great drummer IMO!

  • Comment removed

  • haha , Garrys beard is awsome.

  • this is from the making of born to run "wings for wheels", right? i have that dvd along with the 30th anniversary of born to run. if you got got this off the internet, are there any other songs. The DVD only includes spirit in the night, thundercrack, and wild billy's circus story,

  • If only the people in the audience knew what they were getting into!!

  • @blindesthobo My friends and I saw Bruce a number of times during the early and mid '70's and I can assure you that we knew exactly what we were getting into ... and it was blast!

  • Haha I'm 16 and I love this!! Bruce is the best artist in the world! It's a shame that more teenagers don't realize what music really is but just listen to the crap on MTV and the radio...

  • not only has he got a great voice but he's also a REALLY good singer, he's always on note, never flat, and terrific phrasing.

    a music guru

  • Wow, never saw this before. Bruce playing piano on Spirit? Was Sancious there? Was anyone playing guitar on this? Great clip. thanks!!

  • Thumbs way up!! Bruuuuce forever <3

  • WOW this blew me away thank you for posting this!

  • The version from "Max's Kansas City Night" (1973) is also incredible, and even the bootleg versions are extremely clear.

  • LOVE THIS!!!!

    1965-1976 was a special time for music. its was THE GOLDEN AGE.

  • @MitchDouglas Very true! same here. I'm 20 years old. great comment!

  • @MitchDouglas i'm 17 and i love this song, saw him live in Munchen last year.
