Bruce Springsteen - Badlands (Live 1980)

[Arce3322]

Love this version

[treatmentbound]

Spectacular!

I saw him do this at the Capital Center in the 70's. I've never experienced a greater moment in any concert I've ever been to than the build up part into the last chorus of this song. Most intense exiting thing I've ever experienced at a live show. He gave meaning to the phrase 'blew the roof off the place'!!!

Can't be toppee, bruce and the gang at ther best. impossible not to love. Love the well deserved reception cCarence got for his solo too.

Do you know where i can get a video of the River tour from the philadelphia spectrum show from December 9, 1980... the night after John Lennon was shot down. That was the best show by Bruce I have ever seen.....

[MsBrucejuice]

@Guy3502727 There is no video of this this show, only audio

One of the best live versions that shows how intense Bruce was at his shows in the . 70's & 80's. This was Rock & Roll!

[MsBrucejuice]

[Tipsie79]

I guess Bruce is real fan of Ennio Morricone !

[MsBrucejuice]

@Tipsie79 Indeed Bruce is a longtime fan of Ennio Morricone (according to springsteenlyrics) me too!!! one of the best movies of all time:-)

[enconwjc]

@MsBrucejuice & @Tipsie79 ... How do you guys make this connection to Ennio Morricone? ... I am a huge Bruce fan and How did I miss this?

[MsBrucejuice]

@enconwjc The intro Roy plays on the piano is from Ennio Moricone's filmmusic Once Upon A time In The West, see the link in my information!!:-)

[Tipsie79]

@Tipsie79 Yes ! I like the cover Bruce made for the tribute album "We all love Ennio Morricone" of Once Upon A TIme in the West !

Thanks so much for this!! To watch your vids of the Boss live is to see an artist give his all to a performance-passion and energy for his art :)
