Nils Lofgren - Cry Tough (From "Cry Tough" DVD)

Nils Lofgren's career has seen him achieve great success as a solo artist whilst also establishing himself as a guitarist for both Neil Young in Crazy Horse and Bruce Springsteen in the E Street Band. These three live performances from Germany were all filmed for the famous Rockpalast TV series and see Lofgren at differing points in his career. In 1976 he had released his debut solo album to considerable critical acclaim and was beginning to lay the foundations of his reputation. By 1979 he was well established as a solo artist and influential guitar player. For the third show in 1991, Lofgren had already done a substantial stint in the E Street Band and had just begun to return as a solo performer with his album "Silver Lining". All three are great performances and catch the excitement and showmanship of one of America's finest guitar players live in concert.

I've been fortunate enough to see NILS as a solo act in the mid seventies! While touring to promote this (Cry Tough) LP...he played at a club on the lake (The Outside Inn...I think) near Buffalo NY. It was the 1st time I saw him and a night to remember! It was a warm summer night and the club was set up so that the stage was outside on a very small patio that segued to the other part which was indoors....Perfect!!!...ah...t­he 70s. No guns, no AIDS, promiscuous girls, ass kickin drugs and NILS!!!

My ex and I walked into the Worcester Centrum halfway through Born in the USA and I dee this midget guitar player in a giant cowboy hat. I knew it was Nils, but I couldn't figure out what he was doing there. I would dearly lov3e to hear E Street play this song.
