Listen to two very different covers of “Route 66” recorded a half-century apart–both do justice to this 73-year-old R&B classic.
One time only: Southside Johnny fronts The Bruce Springsteen Band on Marvin Gaye’s Motown classic, but it’s David Sancious who steals the show.
One time only: Bruce joins Joe Grushecky on one of the Iron City Houserockers’ best early tracks, “Junior’s Bar.”
One time only: Bruce Springsteen performs Jimmy Cliff’s “The Harder They Come” with the original artist at SXSW.
It takes a special performer to steal the show from Bruce Springsteen. Watch The Philly Elvis do it when Bruce grants his request on the Working on a Dream Tour.
By remarkable circumstance, Bruce covered “Goodnight, Irene” in concert twice, but almost no one in the venue heard him! You can, though–watch the great video inside.
Twice only: Bruce joins Southside Johnny on the Little Steven-penned 1991 rave-up, “I’ve Been Working Too Hard.”
Listen closely to Little Steven’s love song “Angel Eyes,” and you’ll hear the unmistakable (but uncredited) backing vocals of Bruce Springsteen.
One time only: Bruce joins The Wallflowers in a gorgeous cover of Sam Cooke’s classic “Bring It on Home to Me.”
