Interestingly no BTR
Just noticed ony; 1 2024 show song
@Q2 posted:That’s because it’s called Road Diary and not Greatest Hits or Best Of, so as consolation you may relax, sway, sing along and enjoy everyone’s favorite cover “Don’t Play That Song”.
🙉
If it's supposed to capture this tour, then BTR should be included. I mean, half the setlist/album is greatest hits/best of. Scratch Bobby Jean (always) and include BTR and it would better capture this era of shows.
- Interestingly, no Thunder Road.
Along with the inescapability of the inevitability of death and taxes, Bruce’s set lists will never please everyone. 🤔
On Spotify sound seems muffled, more so than normal Spotify recorded music.
I agree, the sound quality on the audio release is disappointing.
Especially given that Bob Clearmountain worked on these very same tracks for the audio in the film itself.
One just needs to listen to Clearmountain's mix of Passaic, NJ 20-Sep-1978 to appreciate his considerable abilities.
Seems to me, this release (with the standard Altschiller mixes) was a wasted opportunity, given the Clearmountain mixes for these songs already exist.
Unless I am missing something?
