Roy Brittan is a piano wizard that is VERY UNDERRATED- where is the love for Roy ?

Love the piano intro from The Professor!

Always felt like Springsteen never gets the credit that he deserves as a guitarist. Such an epically talented musician!

[@jkckmarcumful]

There may be some that are more technically proficient, but Springsteen plays with more passion than any other guitarist in history.

[@Caperhere]

🎶Well, I got this guitar, and I learned how to make her talk

[@jkckmarcumful]

For my money, I think he's the best. There's definitely no one better at leading a band. He puts his heart and soul in his music and performances. He's the boss.

[@donellefeltham]

I couldn’t agree more Scott, but boy did I get a dressing down from a Neal Shon fan who couldn’t see past his nose. It was Bruce and the EStreet Bands cover of Purple Rain , which for mine was brilliant. I happened to mention that I thought not only Bruce but Nils and Stevie, you just don’t get any better than that. Well after going ape shit on me, saying Neal was the best and if I was a fan of Journey I’d no that. What the jumped up little shit didn’t know, I’m also a huge fan of Steve Perry and Journey, but for mine I’d always thought yes Neal is a great guitar player, but sometimes his solos were far too long. What the little Creep didn’t know, is my Passion is Music and there’s not much I haven’t heard. I’ve been following Bruce since The Born to Run Album. Anyway I did read him the riot act and layed out my Credentials , and I never heard from him again.🎼♥️🇦🇺

I agree. You have good taste when it comes to music

As long as you know he stole his look and sound from John Cafferty, who would travel from RI to Jersey with Beaver Brown....he's whole act commandeered from someone else🤔🎵🎶

[@johnnyM809]

Springsteen for me is incomparable in popular music, both as a songwriter and as a performer. He is just in a class of his own.

[@walesjs]

I was at a 1978 show (RPI fieldhouse). That buzzsaw of a guitar lead was so loud I can almost still hear it. I was deaf for two days. WORTH IT!

[@asnieze]

The piano work in these versions is god level.

[@mozfonky]

it's real telling that he never completely cut ties with Bittan, even when he dismissed the E street band, I think he always had Bittan around in some capacity.

[@iesus68]

One of best intro in music history. Houston live footage I love you

This is the legend of Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band. Epic and iconic.

[@josephbolcome5462]

This song is best when it is a live '78 version! I mean, Springsteen's still a great artist, but this song works best with the long version of the guitar part from 2:21 ish. It always gets me jamming to it. Thank you Boss for delivering this epic version!

[@GuadalupePicasso]

I first saw Springsteen in 2012, at the baseball stadium in DC on the Wrecking Ball tour, and they opened with this “1978 version” of Prove It All Night. When the band came out on stage, as it was a baseball stadium, Roy was playing “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” on piano. Bruce pointed to a woman in the pit right up front (I was in the pit, too), and said, “We’re going to open by request tonight”, as she was holding a sign requesting this specific version.

[@livinb450]

[@michaelwilhelm2148]

Thank you for this video. I also saw Springsteen in 1978 on the campus of The Ohio State University. THIS song was the showstopper of the evening. I will NEVER forget that night! Incredible energy and raw power and energy. The fans in Houston really got a treat on this one! Bruce's show in Ohio did not have the opening 5:40 of excellent featured guitar intro. However, I'd say the last 5:15 of the song was much better at OSU. The venue was smaller and more intimate. Everyone in the audience was on their feet and dancing the entire song.

[@DrRussPhd]

After I heard "Born to Run" on the Philly FM radio I went out and bought all 3 Bruce albums that were then available . 3 years later "Darkness on the Edge of Town" arrives and man was I disappointed- over wrought, over sung and now Bruce has this weird accent when he sings. This performance is pretty good, not sure where it is in the show. Only seen him once- December 8, 1980 at the Spectrum in Philly. John Lennon died that night. Talk about going from a high to a low in 10 minutes.

[@mikaspirit78]

Un Mot Legendaire !!!!!! 💥💥💥🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@jamesalfano5740]

I saw the '78' tour at the Philly Spectrum. My favorite era of Bruce & most guitar drenched arrangements. Bruce would step on some kind of Super Booster pedal (not your everyday distortion pedal, maybe a channel switcher) for his leads, one of the most viscous sounds I've ever heard!

[@te2edgesportscards177]

[@chuckHart70]

Huge Bruce fan and guitarist. He isnt the greatest lead guitarist....exceptional rhythm player....writer etc. but that long solo you got to give him some credit. Its micely done. And didnt hear any mistakes. Wish he did more lead actually. I think shredding is overrated and sucks but a nice clean melodic solo is what I prefer.

[@dagsouza3594]

💕💕💕💕💕💋💙

[@workingboy91607]

A great performance, to be sure, but the sound mix is head-scratchingly thin and completely lacking in oomph. Check out the Largo performance of P.I.A.N. from the same year to get the full sonic impact that the song deserves.

[@MrEdenhawk]

Whow, pure perfection! For a split second I thought I was listening to Jimmi Page the Boss is certainly up there!
