This particular CD is a 3 disc
set from Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, CA on May 3, 1988. This show was well
know as one of the longest shows on that tour and one of the best! I was lucky enough to
not only be in the audience, but I happened to be on the lawn while Bruce warmed up on
stage. Well, someone opened the doors early and all of a sudden he had himself a crowd and
performed a couple more tunes for everyone before telling everyone he'd see them all
later. Did he ever! Great Show!! |
This was actually the first
Bruce Springsteen album I EVER bought! I got it for $26 at a little independant record
store in Champaign, IL, during my first semester at college in late 1979. I actually
didn't know anything about Bootlegs at the time, and just thought it was a live concert
album. I knew a few of his songs and heard he was incredible in concert, so I thought,
"why not". From then on, I was hooked! I had to have everything! I bought all
his studio albums and whatever bootlegs I could afford! |
This is from the very first
Bridge School Benefit Concert put on by Neil Young. It was an incredible lineup! Neil
Young, CSN&Y, Nils Lofgren, Tom Petty, Don Henley, Robin Williams and, of course,
Bruce closing the show. Again, I was lucky enough to be at this show and found a
copy of the video at a record swap a few years later! I've also been saving video taped
from various broadcasts over the years and have now converted those to computer files that
I have transferred to DVD-R! |
