5. State Trooper (Bruce Springsteen - Live In Philadelphia 9-18-1984)

Hello everybody! This is BruceBootlegs with the first bootleg uploaded! Do you like Bruce Springsteen but never heard his bootlegs? This is the channel for you!
This is the last show of 6 in The Spectrum, in Philadelphia. Bruce Springsteen is still able to be in very good shape and the E Street Band is on fire! Now, the songs analysis:
'Born In The USA' is very good, 'Out In The Street' is superb, 'Spirit In The Night' is great, 'Atlantic City' is very good, 'State Trooper' is good, 'Reasons To Believe' is also good, 'I'm Goin' Down' is very good, 'Darlington County' is good, 'Glory Days' counts with an awesome story and performance, 'The Promised Land' is very good, 'Point Blank' is good, 'I Fought The Law' is very good and 'Badlands' is awesome;
'Thunder Road' is very good, 'Hungry Heart' is good, 'Dancing In The Dark' is great, 'Cadillac Ranch' is very good, 'Candy's Room' is great, 'I'm On Fire' is good, 'Cover Me' is also good, 'Growin' Up' is awesome, 'Bobby Jean' is very good, 'Jersey Girl' is superb and 'Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)' is awesome;
That night Bruce and The E Street Band did something that Bruce named "Crazy Boss's Christmas In September", and then pulls out a great redention of 'Santa Claus Is Coming To Town'! 'Jungleland' is very good, 'Born To Run' is superb (as usual), 'The Detroit Medley' is great and 'Twist And Shout' is excellent!
This is a remaster from an audience recording, and the quality is great, so we are ready to hear this amazing show!
Enjoy!

powerful live version - should of been on Live 1975-85 Album

[@thetrevorosborne]

should have been but maybe they didn't have a multi track recording of it .Unfortunately they didn't always professionally record the shows

[@BillLennonBand]

The third of the ninety five Springsteen shows I have seen. And the best! My friends and I got in with two Flyers ticketron tickets glued together! The days before the scanning technology!

[@BruceBootlegs]

Haha, the things you do to see the boss! It's a great concert, and you're a lucky guy!

[@portabletiger]

One person downvoted because they don't get that THIS version is even closer to a Suicide tribute than the original was, and I LOVE the original.

[@coledrago]

Der duh😮

[@theiceman6941]

Best live version of this song ever. "This Gun's For Hire"

[@billyjackoff]

Goddamn, this version slaps so fucking hard. Some of the versions of Nebraska songs were clearly superior in acoustic form (Mansion On The Hill comes to mind), but this version...holy shit. When he starts belting the last verse...it's just so powerful.

[@DustyLinks]

Yeah, the Suicide influences really shine with the synth and delays.

[@Jaycee03YC]

This is just so amazing, i actually pass out listening to it.

[@Nop2Net]

I heard the King Hannah cover of this one. I had to listen to the original to judge. That is all.

[@deRoland87]

no words!

[@lrx6572]

The boss rules!

[@physicsparty8963]

[@BruceBootlegs]

Yes, he does!

[@MsNinjaA]

Dear BruceBootlegs, I am love this version so much, would it be possible to ask for WAV or high quality MP3 version? Thanks so much for creating your channel. You rock dude.

[@Dogtown21]

Toe tapper

[@josephbolcome5462]

Is this song and Open All Night related? Like the guy from Open All Night is being chased by a state trooper in this song? Then when the trooper catches him, he kills him? It seems like the songs are.

[@Oceanmachine27]

Several of the lines are the same, like two halves of the same coin. One is dark, one bright.

[@deRoland87]

is the audience booing afterwards?

[@BruceBootlegs]

+Roland Bolz Nope, they're screaming "BRUUUUUUUUCE"! :P

[@deRoland87]

+BruceBootlegs fantastic! Best piece of music I've heard in a while!

[@BruceBootlegs]

+Roland Bolz It's great!

[@markcox5535]

Broooce! Broooce! Broooce! Broooce!

[@Rockermom72]

Great quality!! Can’t beat The Boss. This is my favorite of his songs

[@sonicislnd]

I love this song but your vision for the song sucks. Also seems Springsteen lost his way. The beauty lies in the demo version. He always wanted to sell to the arena.

[@pr00de]

Ugh, the full band arrangement is awful. That synth is so cheesy.

[@Knapptime95]

I’m thinking the whole idea was an homage to the synth-punk duo Suicide, who inspired the song to begin with

[@alexneville8168]

I love it
