31 Aug 2010 11:03 AM Save My Love by DisplayName

All due apologies if this has already been addressed, buried somewhere on page 11 of some other thread.

Save My Love is great. Granted there will be many, many naysayers as always - but taken for what it is, an outtake, it's pretty damn good and I'd be thrilled to hear it live at the next show.

That said (and file this under 'who the fuck cares' or 'does it really matter anyway'), that has GOT to be a vocal overdub. Sounds to me like Devils and Dust/Magic/WOAD era Bruce trying to sound like Darkness era Bruce. Right from the first word, the way he slides up from way down in his vocal register... that's a relatively new vocal nuance (not to be redundant or repetitive), is it not? Anything else from the Darkness era sound that vocally mature?

I can't imagine that too many of the tracks on "The Promise" ever saw their way to fully polished (in as much as ANY of Darkness could ever really be called fully polished - thank God for the remaster!) versions with completed lyrics and all, release-ready.

SO, has there been any mention of overdubs, vocal or otherwise, on this project?

31 Aug 2010 08:57 AM Springsteen-related sites in Asbury Park by The_Zach

I'm working on a post for Gridskipper.com on Springsteen-related sites in Asbury Park. Any suggestions? Anything beyond the obvious like Madam Marie's and the Pony would be much appreciated! The final piece will include a short intro and six to 10 locations attached to a map (so, yes, the locations have to be real).

Thanks!

30 Aug 2010 10:54 PM And to Complement the Darkness Box Set.... by eddieo

The perfect companion to the new box set is without a doubt Lawrence Kirsch's book "The Light In Darkness". I contributed to that book. Mine is the entry for Phoenix July 8, 1978.

How many we are?
Would be interesting to count how many we are and which city from. I'm a long time bruce collector, since 1980, i love collect audio shows, bootleg cd and original items of course.
