The Greg Kihn Band did an outstanding cover of this relatively unknown gem back in the late 70's. It impressed Bruce so much that he "gave" Kihn a terrific rock song, Rendesvous, to put on his next album. I had been a Bruce fan since "Born to Run" in '76 and knew he was great, but when he did this for an unknown (at the time) club band band from the Bay area,I realized that Bruce was special. And he keeps validating that fact over and over and over again. A once in a lifetime person & talent
@gr8gt1 I had a chance to open up for the Greg Kihn Band years ago. Greg Talked about the time Bruce him have the song. He Said "I was going to give it to the KNACK but thought you would be around longer" Greg just did a fantastic version of Thunder Road.
@bgilbertson00 The best version, IMO, is the one played at his first concert in in Europe, in November of 75. It's called the Hammersmith, sometimes, the Hammersmith Odeon, version. It's here on YouTube and you can download it from iTunes for 99 cents.
This is a bootleg from the Devils & Dust tour in 05. He came out alone and mesmorized us for 2 + hours. And by alone I mean, all by himself. That's working without a net.
