- The Hammersmith Odeon, London, 1975.

YouTube comments: - The ferocity and urgency the band played with during those early years is a wonder to behold, it's palpable, you can feel it in your heart. - Clarence Clemons is unstoppable laying down the melody. One of the greatest ever. #RIPBigMan. - Young Bruce Springsteen really tore it up. - They don't make music like this anymore. Long live The Boss and the E Street Band...

3. Just saw them in Philly

A couple weeks ago. They played Rosalita...and they still sound great. And Bruce makes a point to encourage support for local food banks and other helping organizations at every concert I've ever been to. I love him and the band!
