Now anyone that knows me will know that this is not the kind of artist they'd expect me to post about here. But a short while back I saw him do a concert on BBC4 called the Seeger Sessions which caught my attention in a big way, it is a big shift from what you'd expect from The Boss. Anyone into country, folk, bluegrass or most kinds of roots music will appreciate this.

OMG!
Invasion of the Boss snatchers!
AAAAHHHHH! My ears are bleeding!
Rushing to find my Born in the USA CD so I can get this drivel out of my ears!

Who stole the Boss? I'll have their heads!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

You gotta be kidding, that's great music!


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

It was okay, but I prefer the old Bruce of the 80's.
Even Jon Bon Jovi has gone a bit country...must be the latest trend, lol.

This one is one of my favorite Springsteen songs:

I bet you'll like it.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I actually like most of his stuff, but was just so shocked to see him doing the roots band, the fiddle did it for me, that is just so not what you expect in a Bruce gig lol


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Cool.
Tell me something: do you like the Stones?


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I prefer their bluesier stuff, but sure, I like most things that are played well


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I like HonkyTonk Women & Jumpin' Jack Flash...well, there are others that I like, but those are my two favorite Stones tunes.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

HonkyTonk Women would probably be my fav, you just reminded me of the title, did you know it was the Stones that got The Stray Cats their first work? If it wasn't for them the Cats may never have got that break.


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

No, I didn't know that, but that's pretty cool.
Guess I gotsta like the Stones a little more, eh?

I bet you'd like this song too:

myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Wow that takes me back some, not heard from them in years. Although I saw Huey Lewis in a movie recently called Duets where he was a karaoke hustler, good film too.


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I'm diggin' this one right now.
http://video.google.com/v...

Searched my fave, Bad is Bad, but can't find it in YouTube or google video. Damn them!!! lol

I like a lot of different types of music, believe it or not, Billy Joel is my all-time favorite.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Uptown girl is excellent & my fav Billy Joel song was Innocent Man, he is a brilliant singer, another excellent one is Joe Cocker, do you know him?


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Yep. Joe Cocker is a great one too.
My favorite Billy Joel of all time is The Piano Man, though I love most of his stuff.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

My mum got me into Joe Cocker, she;s watching him now, she has a live concert, he's singing Unchain My Heart, what a great song :)


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I'm listening to Eminem right now, lol.
"Superman" ...damn, I'm a weirdo hahahahaha


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I agree :P


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Now I'm listening to "One" by Metallica. Are you familiar or is that to head-bangin' for me poor Kitty?


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Metallica is more Paul's domain, he's a complete metal head


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I'm groovin' to some Floyd right now.
don't tell me you don't like Pink Floyd...


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I'm not into them as much as my mother lol, she's 68 & sits here watches Floyd dvd's lol


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Your mom is the sh|t! (that is good over here, btw)
I just listened to the tail end of Money as it is switching over to Alanis Morrissette's "Ironic" hahahaha


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

You sure drift from genre to genre


myLot reputation of 68/100. visitorinvasion (3623)   ranked 279 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

Yep, back to Floyd..."comfortably numb" hahahaha
Gotta take Casey & Nevaeh home in a few minutes, at least things are peaceful for the moment. I have a feeling she will not be diggin' the car seat, lol.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

A little peace is always nice huh

I like all that Seeger Sessions stuff. I bought a special edition of The Seeger Sessions album that includes a DVD of the album being recorded. I think it's cool that Bruce Springsteen is still enjoying making music after all these years, you can tell from looking at him that he's enjoying himself.
By the way, have you ever seen anything as stupid as the comments on youtube videos?


myLot reputation of 96/100. Jaytech (675)   ranked 335 out of 8,288 in listening to music  5 years ago

I was surprised when i bumped into the Seeger sessions by accident on BBC3 I think it was, saw an entire show & loved it. As for the youtube comments, I rarely take much notice any more, they're a bunch of attention seekers, thanks for your response :)


myLot reputation of 99/100. crispeater (1457)  5 years ago

I saw Bruce Springsteen Live In Dublin on television a few weeks ago. It was brilliant. It's available on DVD so I might buy it when I get a chance. I keep forgetting how good Bruce Springsteen is until I hear one of his songs or see him live on television. By the way, here's another video you might enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7XLeYMUZY4 it's an acoustic version of Born In The USA.

Hi Jaytech,
Iv'e not been visiting here for some time, but enjoy your posts, alyhough our choice of music sometimes varies.
I stumbled across Bruce singing Seeger when I was searching for a song from the 50s or 60s. Love him, and enjoy his renditions. Unfortunately Youtube is banned in Thailand.
