I hear some Warren Zevon in this one. Or maybe just the Bob Dylan influence on Warren’s song writing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some people will have had free access from owning a new Apple device, and I expect some will have illegally downloaded it. My point was that a lot of people will have had to sign up to Apple TV to get access. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BadcatCupboards Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 On 10/23/2020 at 8:54 PM, G-Man said: Rainmaker is brilliant. My favorite song on an album of highlights. I'm glad to hear people saying this, because I already feel like I can sing along with this one. Feels like the right song at the right time--delivered with enough empathy and insight to make it feel vital. And while I love it, I pray it turns out not to be part of the setlist if the band returns to the stage, because it no longer feels so relevant. But holy cow, what an album. Maybe the best start-to-finish album since BitUSA. In my opinion, it's odd that so few of the reunion-era albums have the rhythm of a live show, considering that building a narrative through songs is maybe the most important part of his live performances. This one really feels like a mini-show, with all the emotional ups and downs. Heck, it even includes my bathroom break in the middle (Power of Prayer, no offense). It's amazing to have an album about aging and loss that is so shot through with youthful energy. Please, please let us hear these songs live in 2021. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon 2022 if covid vaccines go to plan and enough people are protected. But I feel sure that an E Street tour will be the next live project for them all, and the hunger for live music from each and every band member, as well as the fans there in the arena or stadium, will make every show a ‘new world’ life affirming experience, for us all to behold. 4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janeymarywendy Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I've still only been able (had the time) to listen to the album once all the way through when it arrived on the 23rd. Hard to believe! I like to be alone with a new album so I can read the songwords, admire the artwork etc But today is a great day! Mr jmw, who's had a week off, has a dental appointment. Not that I'm hoping he'll be in the chair a long time or anything. I think 58 minutes is about right? 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stillilllife Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 The guitar melody in Last man standing sounds so much like another song, but I can't remember which one...The same thing goes for the verse melody in House of a thousand guitars. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doesthisbusstop Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 The best combination has to be Priest into Ghosts. The songs compliment eachother so well and flow just right. The same lyrics of buckskin jacket boots and spurs in both tracks, yet the two songs being written a half century apart, is confirmation of how these songs knit so perfectly as an album. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doesthisbusstop Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 So it seems the album and film were recorded last November, just a few short weeks after I met Bruce on October 11th. No wonder he was so keen to announce that next up for him was E Street, at the Western Stars film premiere. Zimny and Bruce clearly knew when they talked on stage in the Q&A what was very soon about to be recorded. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They sound phenomenal. Not the first time Aniello has perfected this: Max’s drums on Wrecking Ball (the song) and LOHAD sound immense, too. As much as I love WB (the album), it would have been incredible as a fully-blown ESB decors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly with Western Stars I preferred the film... but part of that was that the performances of the songs were different (and in my view better) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
