L’altra sera ho riscoperto questo vecchio bootleg di Springsteen e la E-Street Band di quasi 32 anni fa, in pieno tour di The River.
Il bootleg che testimonia il concerto di a Oakland del 27 ottobre 1980 è di ottima qualità essendo “firmato” da Ev2; interessanti sono le sue note che riporto dopo la scaletta.

======
Another Mark Persic master recording – this show was taped by ‘bobb’/’markp’, huge thanks to both of you – amazing as usual.
– This show was right after the Portland (The Mountain Show, Ev2) show, and Springsteen makes some references to “the mountain” (St. Helens) during the show.
– ‘The River’ has the piano intro, but ‘Badlands’ doesn’t.
– The only different song from the Portland show is ‘Stolen Car’ which was added to set this night (and that show had one-off ‘Old Smokey’).

L’apertura del concerto con Born to Run doveva essere una cosa devastante dal vivo. Cosa ne pensate?
