Hitler and Springsteen’s The River Box Set
by Ron Wells
As I’ve stated previously, I’m not all that excited about Bruce Springsteen’s The River box set which is about to be released in December 2015, but the video of the show from Tempe in 1980 will be worth every penny.
In 1980, I was 5 years into my fanaticism of Bruce Springsteen. I saw so many shows on the River tour, I lost count.
The video of Ramrod below captures everything I was in love with at the time. The energy, the pure fun and excitement of Bruce and the E Street Band is all here. There was just so much JOY and POWER in the performance. If you don’t dance to this, well, then maybe you should check your dancin’ shoes at the door. If you’re not a fun, that’s ok. Y’all should have been there. There was nothing like it. Enjoy.
