Boken med Bruce og Obama ble sluppet i går



Boken, som har undertittelen "Dreams, Myths, Music", vil ta for seg samtalene som Bruce og president Barack Obama hadde under podcasten med samme navn tidligere i år.
Temaene som ble omhandlet var blant annet livet, arbeid, familie, musikk, rase, maskulinitet og tilstanden til nasjonen.

Fra Springsteen's bok-introduksjon:
"There were serious conversations about the fate of the country, the fortune of its citizens, and the destructive, ugly, corrupt forces at play that would like to take it all down. This is a time of vigilance when who we are is being seriously tested. Hard conversations about who we are and who we want to become can perhaps serve as a small guiding map for some of our fellow citizens. . . . This is a time for serious consideration of who we want to be and what kind of country we will leave our children. Will we let slip through our hands the best of us or will we turn united to face the fire? Within this book you won’t find the answers to those questions, but you will find a couple of seekers doing their best to get us to ask better questions."

Månedens konsertopptak er hentet fra Indianapolis 20/3-08


Denne konserten skulle i ettertid vise seg å bli en meget spesiell forestilling i Bruce Springsteen & The E Streets lange karriere. Danny Federici hadde lenge kjempet mot føflekk kreft og hadde tatt en pause fra turneen siden november i 2007.

Charlie Giordano ble hyret inn som erstatter for Danny, men denne kvelden, i Indianapolis, dukket overraskende Danny opp på scenen og var med og fremførte de tre låtene "The Promised Land", "Spirit In The Night" og "Asbury Park 4th of July (Sandy)". Han var også med under låtene i ekstranumrene.

Bruce introduserte Danny med disse ordene "We've got a special treat tonight, Danny Federici is with us".
I ettertid har det kommet frem at både Bruce og Danny visste at det gikk mot slutten og at dette var hans siste kveld med gjengen i The E Street Band. Under en måned senere, den 17. april, døde Danny Federici.
Den første konserten etter Danny's død, finnes også i "Live Vault" serien og er konserten fra Tampa den 22. april.

Danny's siste kveld med gjengen


Konserten inneholder 25 låter og inneholdt en turnepremiere med låten «
Rendezvous».

"4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)"


Danny Federici was forced to leave the E Street Band in late 2007 to receive treatment for melanoma that would eventually claim his life. But on an emotional night the following March, Phantom Dan returned to the stage one last time to sit in with his blood brothers. Indianapolis 2008 showcases the late, great Danny Federici on "The Promised Land," "Spirit In The Night," "4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)," "Backstreets," "Kitty's Back," "Born To Run," "Dancing In The Dark" and "American Land."

From My Home to Yours #29 (13/10-21)
Bruce Springsteens 29. utgave av "From My Home To Yours", som sendes på SiriusXM satelitt radio, har fått tittelen "Let’s Talk About Sex".

"Let’s Talk About Sex", er den 29 i rekken


Låtvalget under dagens sending, som hadde fått navnet "Let’s Talk About Sex", inneholdt temaer som innebefattet kjærlighet og varme følelser. Noen av artistene som ble spilt var blant andre Donna Summer, Marvin Gaye, The Rolling Stones og to låter av Bruce selv.

Bruce hedret også Rolling Stones trommeslageren Charlie Watts, som døde den 24. august i år. Dette gjorde han etter å ha spilt "Honky Tonk Woman": That was the Rolling Stones; rest in peace, Charlie Watts. There is no better tribute to rock’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll drummer than the vicious groove he digs on "Honky Tonk Women." "Whoo!," Mick says at the end of The Stones’ masterpiece, and he is correct.

Låtene som ble spilt under programmet var:
Sexy Coffee Pot (Tony Alvon & The Belairs)
Let's Talk About Sex (91) (Salt-N-Pepa)
Baby, Scratch My Back (Slim Harpo)
Sexual Healing (Marvin Gaye)
Sex On Fire (Kings Of Leon)
Work With Me Annie (Hank Ballard)
Annie Had A Baby (The Medallions)
Honky Tonk Women (The Rolling Stones)
Good Lover (Jimmy Reed)
Sex & Candy (Marcy Playground)

Let's Get It On (Marvin Gaye)

I'm On Fire - Bruce Springsteen


Springsteens ord under sendingen:
Hello, hello, friends, fans, lovers and listeners from coast to coast and around the world. Hello from Stone Hill Studios and Vol. 29 of "From My Home to Yours," titled "Let’s Talk About Sex."

"Let’s Talk About Sex," Salt-N-Pepa

All right, all right. We opened with "Sexy Coffee Pot," by Tony Alvon & the Belairs, and followed that with the wonderful and classic Salt-N-Pepa’s "Let’s Talk About Sex." Salt-N-Pepa, out of New York City in 1985. Salt, Cheryl James — Pepa, Sandra Denton — and DJ Spinderella, Deidra Roper. Their first album was Hot, Cool & Vicious and it sold a million copies in the United States. (Their) fourth album, Very Necessary, sold five million, making them the highest selling female rap act at that time. The song "Let’s Talk About Sex" has a humor and an underlying sweetness that is simply irresistible. "Let’s talk about sex, baby! Let’s talk about you and me! Let’s talk about all the good things and the bad things that may be."

Slim Harpo, let’s talk about sex.

"Baby Scratch My Back," Slim Harpo

That was Slim Harpo with "Baby Scratch My Back," out of Lobdell, La. And here’s the great one, Marvin Gaye, with the greatest song ever written on today’s topic.

"Sexual Healing," Marvin Gaye

"Sex on Fire," Kings of Leon

All right. That was the Followills with their big smash, "Sex (Is) on Fire." Our next artist, Hank Ballard, cut this immortal R&B record in 1954. It was immediately opposed by the FCC due to its salacious lyrical content, which was deemed, simply, too overtly sexual for the tender ears of modern America’s radio listeners. However, you cannot keep a hit record down! Despite attempts to restrict it, it went to No. 1 on the R&B charts and stayed there for seven weeks. Hank Ballard, please, "Work With Me, Annie."

"Work With Me, Annie," Hank Ballard & the Midnighters

That record sold one million copies and so did its answer record, "Annie Had a Baby (Can’t Work No More)." Our singer’s lament is every time he starts to work she has to stop and walk the baby ‘cross the floor! "She walks with the baby, instead of me/She talks with the baby, instead of me/She sings to the baby, instead of me/And she clings to the baby, instead of me/Now I know it’s understood/That that’s what happens when the gettin’ gets good."

"Annie Had a Baby," The Medallions

"Honky Tonk Women" (alternate version), The Rolling Stones

We started with The Medallions’ version of "Annie Had a Baby," and segued, of course, into "Honky Tonk Women." That was the Rolling Stones; rest in peace, Charlie Watts. There is no better tribute to rock’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll drummer than the vicious groove he digs on "Honky Tonk Women." "Whoo!," Mick says at the end of The Stones’ masterpiece, and he is correct.

Here comes Jimmy Reed, swearin’, "Damn, he’s a good lover."

"Good Lover," Jimmy Reed

"Sex and Candy," Marcy Playground

That was Marcy Playground, from 1997, with "Sex and Candy." And before that, "Good Lover," by Jimmy Reed. And here’s the king of ’em all, Muddy Waters, having a problem with "My Dog Can’t Bark."

"My Dog Can’t Bark," Muddy Waters

"Reno," Bruce Springsteen

That was yours truly, with "Reno," from Devils & Dust, preceded by the greatest, Muddy Waters. This is Rodney Crowell, with "Sex and Gasoline."

"Sex and Gasoline," Rodney Crowell

That was Rodney Crowell, born in 1950 in Houston, Texas, played in Emmylou Harris’ Hot Band. He’s another of the great line of singer-songwriters that Texas seems to produce unfailingly. Great writer, great artist.

Here’s the Queen of Disco.

"Love to Love You Baby," Donna Summer

"Let’s Get It On," Marvin Gaye

And we have bookended our program with another great record by Marvin Gaye, who, without a doubt, made some of the sexiest recordings of the ’70s. And that’s about our show for today. I hope you’ve enjoyed our time together. And until we meet again, may your life be filled with sex, love and rock ‘n’ roll! Go in peace.

"I’m on Fire," Bruce Springsteen

Bruce og Little Steven
Mandag den 27. september, intervjuet Bruce Springsteen sin gode venn og bandkamerat Steven Van Zandt hjemme på gården i Colts Neck. Anledningen var Little Stevens nylig utgitte bok “Unrequited Infatuations: Odyssey Of A Rock And Roll Consigliere”.  

Bruce Springsteen spiller en liten bit av låten "Born To Run" under intervjuet.

Boken er en selvbiografi av Little Steven og her forteller han om mange av sine opplevelser i sin lange karriere.
"It is more than just the testimony of a globe-trotting nomad, more than the story of a groundbreaking activist, more than the odyssey of a spiritual seeker, and more than a master class in rock and roll (not to mention a dozen other crafts)."
