More appropriate today than the night it was performed.
One time only: Bruce joins Michael Strollo on “Could Die Young Tonight” to pay tribute to Michael’s recently departed brother (and Bruce’s friend), Tony.
“Your Own Worst Enemy” is the bridge between Magic and Working on a Dream, featuring a lush and layered backing track paired with devastatingly biting lyrics.

During a week of holiday shows in 2001, Patti Scialfa performed her beautiful 1993 ballad with her husband backing her on guitar.
Woody Guthrie’s “Blowin’ Down This Road” brings Bruce together with his fellow singer-songwriters. Hear him team up with Joe Ely, Joe Grushecky, Elliott Murphy, Alejando Escovedo, and Garland Jeffreys inside.
Jericho and Seb Martel’s cover of “The Ghost of Tom Joad” is impassioned, heartfelt, and timely–one of the best covers of Bruce’s all-too-relevant song.
