Bruce Springsteen - The Complete Video Anthology, 1978-2000 Reviews
I was happy with my purchase!
Given that it did maybe have a few crappy camera angels & lighting; how could anybody be unhappy with their purchase after seeing him prance around in a pair of tight pants? This DVD collection made me wish I could have seen him in concert...
Could've been so much more but a great collection.
First: They should've waited until "The Rising".
Second: Bruce has pro-shot footage dating back to 1972-1973. Starting it at 1978 with "Rosalita", running through "Born in the USA" and then "Born to Run" at the end, not to mention a mid-90s "Hungry Heart" promo on the second. The continuity is kind of wacky.
There's a whole show filmed for "No Nukes". There's "Austin City Limits" (which no one can find). There's 1975 footage at the Roxy in LA, and a BBC shot show at the Hammersmith as well as other shows that have been circulating on bootlegs. The Neil Young "Bridge" concert. The Barcelona video's great, but the marathon shows he used to do should really be out there for all of us to see...
Once Bruce started doing videos, he wound up getting top-name directors like Brian DePalma, John Sayles,Jonathan and Ted Demme. A lot of them are memorable and beautifully shot, but a lot of the "Born in the USA" footage just makes you wonder why he hasn't put out one of the shows on DVD. You see a bit of E Street history, including the era where he ditched those guys for a while, then working with them on "Murder Inc.". "Streets of Philadelphia" and "Beautiful Disguise" have Bruce singing live to a backing track, very unusual.
Bruce's fans will love this, but they'll love it more if they put out some of the footage that made people enchanted with his shows.
