Bruce Springsteen - Lucky Town (MTV Plugged - Official HD Video)

No one really talks about his lead guitar playing. Brilliant and soulful!

The lead guitar for Bruce Springsteen for this show & others was an English guitar player Michael Barakan A.K.A by his stage name of Shayne Fontaine.

[@Mando1923]

​@@michaelmorgan9289Bruce plays the extended final solo in this song & has ever since 1990 . Shayne played the first solo only!

[@gauravshonik8562]

Bruce, the mascot of undying hope, the prophet of resilience, and the poet of all that's worth celebrating in life. He has shared so much love, and saved so many lives that he knows not! And what a song -- a pure love bullet.

Couldn't say it any better, such a positive impact on my life and many others ❤❤❤

[@RVALMAT]

This song should have been a HUGE MEGAHIT (not being hiperbolic). I could listen to it over and over and never get tired.

[@trailerparkretirement]

The double album it came out as a part of was a bit much but this tune and probably five others across both albums were absolute winners; great lyrics, catchy melody and just solid rock from the boss. Too bad (imo) he lost his edge and got old, flat and boring but that's kinda happened to rock and roll across the board so it is what it is...but agreed on this tune it was a winner that fell through the cracks...

[@euanisles9122]

@@trailerparkretirement Yeah I agree, brilliant song that was drowned out by the heap of other songs that came along with it. While I wasn’t around when the album was released, my dad recalls that a lot of Springsteen fans weren’t happy with the fact that the rest of the E street band didn’t feature in the album or tours for these albums. Might be another big reason why people didn’t give it the recognition it deserves.

[@trailerparkretirement]

Props to the backing singer. Perfect pitch and timing. Super. Adds volume. The Boss is as usual awesome.

[@jeffstevens4262]

What a great track. I always thought Bruce never got the credit he deserved for being a brilliant guitarist as well as the world's greatest ever singer/songwriter/performer, and here's the proof right there.

[@LyricsMom]

Except he was always much better with the Big Man, the Professor, Little Steven, Mighty Max and Danny Federici.

I fear not enough people know of and fully appreciate this amazing song of Bruce’s and how autobiographical it was, how much it captured what was happening in his life at that time, ……but then, like all great songs, how completely universal it is…..🙏🎶🎭

This goes to show an artist like Bruce is always honing their craft . There's always time to improve , or change their style .

[@charliedrydenguitarist]

Why on Earth everyone said these two records were some of his worse... I will never know hahaha! I have never been able to get enough of this record especially, brilliant storytelling and lyrical content and he plays guitar like the best of them when he wants to. Absolutely love this concert, it sounds amazing recorded, but imagine if you could be there I bet was incredible! Superb sound mixing and balancing as well, big props to the sound techs! And why the HELL everyone called these guys he played with... How... Tight as f*** on every song and they can all sing as well hahaha! Growing Up and Wish I Were Blind will always be another two favourites from this gig as well this! If anyone knows who these guys are... I'll play with them every single day of the week hahaha!! :)

Man that's a great Springsteen song, great band and great performance. Never understood WHY Lucky Town wasn't HUGE.

[@johnobrien20]

As you know Lucky Town and Human Touch Albums were released on the same day. 24 Tracks between the two, i think if the best 12 songs of the two Albums had been released as just one album, it would have been HUGE. it was nearly like a Double Album, and Double Albums dont always work. it should be Quality over Quantity.

I loved this album when it came out along with the other one that came out with it. It signaled Bruce was returning back to his rock roots and away from the pop songs of the 80's. This is one of his best live shows if you ask me.

[@petarmaksimovic4048]

To me they sound brighter and harder than E-Street, more energetic, where E-Street sound more dark and film-like. As said, these guys sound tighter, especially the drums, I always felt that Max kind of doesn't hit them hard enough and drags time, not that he's not competent, just his style.

I know exactly what you mean, and agree. He could play the outro on Racing in the Street for 12-15 minutes, instead of 5 or 6, and I'd probably be lulled into such deep euphoria I might have trouble coming back. I'll play this version from 5:00, to the end, over and over and over. And over. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIWXoYaqadCcm5o If there's music in heaven, this is it.

[@Sharky165]

I really did like their sound overall on those two albums, and live for the most part; there's something to be said about a stripped-down band !! Aside from "the Professor", Shayne and Crystal were the standouts...unfortunately though, the bassist was average at best, and that weird-looking drummer could barely hold it together. I'm surprised Bruce would settle for a somewhat plebian rhythm section, as he's such a perfectionist. Ah well...there's only one E-Street Band !!
