Broadcast on WINZ, FM broadcast – Only known performance of Night Train. Released on CD “Fox theatre Presents The Boss” (PPL)

After years of tape trading, CD trading and torrenting a couple of years ago I discovered MP3 blogs. It was like discovering Santa Clause. I would find one blog, download everything and then go to its links, download shows from there, and then go to their links. On and on down the rabbit hole. Anything that looked remotely interesting I’d download, because why not? Eventually I realized I had way more shows than I’d ever listen to. When I created my own MP3 blog I eventually decided to only upload shows that I had in a lossless format. That I had torrented or already had in my collection. It didn’t feel write just reposting what I had found on another MP3 blog. Not that I didn’t do a whole bunch of reposts but eventually I stopped, more or less. For the most part I stopped downloading from those blogs too. I just have too much music from other sources.

The other day I rediscovered this, and I just couldn’t resist downloading a bunch of stuff, including this Springsteen show. Since I downloaded it (and several others) I’ve decided to go ahead and post them here. Sound quality won’t be excellent, but whatever, download if you like. This is actually a great sounding show, but at 160 kps the quality isn’t great if that makes any sense.
