Straight from her daily stay-at-home Facebook Live concerts, here’s Melissa Etheridge’s gorgeous rendition of “Thunder Road.”
Month: April 2020
How an outcast from the Born in the U.S.A. sessions became the song that ushered in the E Street Band’s Reunion era.
A rusty E Street Band lumbered through their first attempt at Big Joe Turner’s rock and roll standard, but they more than made up for it 18 years later.
Ask and ye shall receive (sometimes, at least): Stewart Francke wrote a song with Bruce Springsteen in mind and wound up scoring his participation on the studio track.
An unlikely mash-up that works perfectly: Michael Petrella unites one of Bruce Springsteen’s greatest hits with one of Whitney Houston’s.
In which we ask the question: is there any redeeming virtue in this widely scorned deep cut?
Two bands, one venue, and one great tribute: watch Bruce Springsteen cover Bob Seger’s first great hit.
One time only: Bruce teams up with Stray Cats at The Fast Lane on Eddie Cochran’s rockabilly classic.
Free Redemption is a new band out of Italy, and to call them a tribute band would be a vast disservice. Their mission is to reinterpret Bruce’s music, and they hit it out of the park with “I’m Goin’ Down.”
Relationship song or 9/11 catharsis? Either way, “Lonesome Day” helps us process the pain of betrayal and hold our self-destructive urges in check.
