Bruce Springsteen/Wi, USA 1975

If we were to release a title that summarizes the rare sound sources of “BORN TO RUN”, we would have no choice but to also release the live sound sources from when the same album was released. From the 1975 tour, our store also released “READY TO RUN” and the historic performance “VINTAGE BROADCAST 75″ just before the popularity exploded, and now the official video of Hammersmith and Tower Theater on New Year’s Eve are distributed It has now been released. This is the situation before and after the release of “BORN TO RUN” and at the end of the tour, and it can be said that the sound source that fills the gap has been overlooked in recent years. Of course, after the release of “BORN TO RUN”, it attracted attention, and radio broadcasts and leaked soundboard recordings are abundant. In such a situation, the one that stands out is the soundboard recording that caught the live performance in Milwaukee on October 2nd. Springsteen and the E Street Band, who have continued to perform energetic live activities as they gained popularity, started their live performance as usual on this day with a familiar tone. However, it is. Just as the concert was about to reach its halfway point, the venue, Milwaukee’s Uptown Theater, received a threatening phone call saying that a bomb had been planted there, causing an uproar and, naturally, the concert was temporarily suspended. . “I planted a bomb” sounds like an old threatening phone call, but the live show was suspended in order to confirm their true intentions. There, Springsteen and his friends were reportedly killing time at a nearby bar. In the end, it turned out that the threatening phone call was a prank (so typical of America, right?), and the concert was safely resumed. Springsteen and his friends must have sensed that it was a prank, as they returned from the bar and came on stage looking extremely drunk. Thanks to this, the live show, which should have started with “Kitty’s Back”, ended up starting with a cover of Chuck Berry’s “Little Queenie”. Moreover, due to his intoxication, his performance was rough and loose, just like the Stones. As if to prove that, Springsteen repeatedly said “are you loose?” This is super fun! Following that, the development of playing “The E Street Shuffle” is also rare, but even though it is over 20 minutes long, it is thanks to the fun atmosphere that you can listen to it more than you expected. The lively cover by Springsteen and others continues, and this time Manfred Mann’s “Sha La La” is played in an upper tone. After that, the live show finally returned to normal business, but it was a legendary day when the live show went out of control due to an unexpected incident. Moreover, to my surprise, this literally happening show was caught by the staff on the soundboard recording. However, the part before the intimidation commotion was not recorded, and it is even more so since the recording was made after the live performance resumed, which was left to the drunkards. This is a soundboard recording of such a legendary day, so some enthusiasts may remember that CD titles such as “WE HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK TONIGHT” and “MILWAUKEE BOMB SCARE SHOW” were previously released. yeah. However, the time when those titles were in circulation has passed a long time ago, and many people today probably don’t know of their existence. I don’t have any of those CDs either, so I borrowed them from an enthusiast when writing this article…It was an item from the past, but unfortunately with this release it will no longer be of any use. Probably. This is because this time we used the second generation copy sound source discovered by JEMS, and the sound quality has improved dramatically. This is worthy of being called a sound quality upper. The lack of clarity and pitch instability seen in past titles (adjustments have also been added for this release) are resolved at once. I captured it on CD in a completely different dimension. Although it is a soundboard recording via this mixing desk, the staff is playing with stereo mixing in some parts, perhaps because of such happenings, and depending on the song, it is also a big appeal that you can enjoy the sound that is separated on the left and right sides. In particular, the guitar battle between Springsteen and Steve Van Zandt on “It’s Hard to Be a Saint in the City” is divided into left and right sides, and the way it sounds vividly is different from the organized multi-track recording. is amazing! And as a bonus, we have the luxury of including a rare cover song from the same soundboard recording that was caught live in Austin two weeks ago. Please enjoy the legendary happening show that will never be officially released with the realistic and clear sound quality upper version sound board recording. Are You Loose?
