My first and surprise Bruce appearance was a tremendous show featuring Peter Wolf, Jackson Browne, and Little Steven & The Disciples of Soul.

Want to know why Bruce Springsteen became known as the “Fastest Guitar in Asbury Park?” Listen to this.
Bruce doesn’t play “Brown Eyed Girl” often, but when he does, it’s a singalong highlight, with no teleprompter required.
My all-time favorite Bruce cover: a tender re-working of “Tougher Than the Rest” by a vocalist with the emotional range to perfectly capture the song’s nuance.
Part novelty and part testimony to the E Street Band’s versatility, Bruce opened several early shows with a cover of Duke Ellington’s last great hit.
“Growin’ Up” almost had a twin sibling. Take a listen to the first verse of what might have been.
“From Small Things” got some cover love long before Bruce officially released it. Here’s one of the best. from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band in 1990.
“We Are Alive” delivers one of Bruce’s most hopeful messages through his some of his most macabre imagery–quite an impressive feat.
Bruce and Bryan Adams meet on stage for the first time to cover Bryan’s 1983 hit at the 2017 Invictus Games.
It may have taken him two attempts to get started, but Roger Daltrey absolutely nails his “Born to Run” cover.
