This film perfectly captures the exuberance of the '78 Springsteen show I saw in Princeton, which is my favorite concert ever!

I stumbled across this relatively new documentary on a plane and decided to check it out, seeing how chronologically close it was that amazing '78 show that I thought that I'd never be able to reexperience. Well, this let me reexperience it! (Actually, it let me reexperience HALF of it, as the '78 shows were three hours plus an intermission.) This film shows Bruce in his greatest performance ere, like capturing lightning in a bottle!

I think Springsteen's greatest work by far came in his first four albums, and that's the source of most of the original songs he plays here (with the exception of two from "The River.") The show I saw in '78 had another 90 minutes from those first four amazing albums, but until someone invents a time machine this great film will have to suffice!
