Cover Me, Michelle Moore and the Alliance Singers: Rocky Ground

Michelle Moore is certainly qualified to cover Bruce’s “Rocky Ground” — she sings and raps on the studio track, after all, and she was a featured vocalist throughout the Wrecking Ball tour whenever this song  was in the setlist.

So it’s great to see and hear her take the reins on the full song, supported by The Alliance Singers (who together with Michelle, provide backing vocals on tracks from The Rising and The Promise as well).

Enjoy this performance from “Thunder Road Thursday,” a Bruce birthday celebration at the Freehold Acoustic Lounge on September 26, 2013.

Roll of the Dice: Rocky Ground

"Rocky Ground" may be wrapped in gospel trappings, but its themes are as Springsteenian as anything on Darkness on the Edge of Town.
