Review: one of the greatest live albums ever - Bruuuuuuuuce has gone through a number of transformations. I'll confess I don't like all of them, although I do admire his continued attempts at growth as an artist. This album was when he was first on the cusp of greatness, and if you listen, you'll know why. This album features many of the great works from his masterpiece second and third albums--and it MAKES masterpieces out of several initially underwhelming pieces from the first. The band is featured in ways it rarely would again. There are some significant reinventions, some great jams. Most crucially of all, it is tremendously raw. You can hear the hecklers, the scratchiness of Bruce's voice, the occasional bad attempt at improv banter, the screech of the mic. Bruce is great live, but his other live albums don't translate the energy. This is a marvel precisely because it is so vulnerable, so unpolished in spots. The definitive live album from Bruce, and probably among the top 5 live albums from anyone. Particular gems are For You (which sends shivers down my spine), Sandy, Kitty's Back, E Street Shuffle, Spirit in the Night, and Lost in the Flood. Even She's the One, which I think is a dud of a song, doesn't sound half-bad here. The timbre of the instrumentation is great, too. Roy and Steve in particular shine. Review: This album is truly astounding! - Bruce put his guitar away that night thinking this show had gone badly? My gosh -- what would a good show have sounded like??? This CD just melts all the other CDs in my collection and obliterates all the other songs on my ipod. How can a live album be this good? First, Bruce's singing is absolutely phenomenal. Seriously -- he sings better in a single take on a single night than the multiple takes in the studio over the year. The setlist is inspired. The E Street band is just dead on and dead tight that night. Many of the performances surpass the album version of the songs -- "Tenth Avenue Freeze Out", "She's the One", and "Rosalita" certainly do. The version of these three songs on this album are so good that it is now hard for me to listen to the album versions -- especially of "She's the One". "She's the One" is so transcendent on this album that the version on BTR now sounds like a demo. I wouldn't have ever thought that was possible. I'll still take the album version of "Born to Run" -- but I could live with this album as my only Springsteen album (if I had to!). I want to add that Miami Steve adds a whole bunch to this set and nicely rounds out the sound. You must own this album. The only problem is that it will make the rest of your collection pale by comparison!! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000E97X66 | | Best Sellers Rank | #14,675 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #105 in Rock Singer-Songwriters #477 in Pop Singer-Songwriters #754 in Album-Oriented Rock (AOR) (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (689) | | Date First Available | September 2, 2000 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 2195829 | | Label | Legacy Recordings | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Legacy Recordings | | Number of discs | 2 | | Original Release Date | 2006 | | Product Dimensions | 4.97 x 5.63 x 1.75 inches; 3.52 ounces | | Run time | 2 hours and 4 minutes | ## Images ![Hammersmith Odeon, London '75 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-l4ML1pVL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ one of the greatest live albums ever *by N***E on March 30, 2009* Bruuuuuuuuce has gone through a number of transformations.

It still might be. *by M***. on July 5, 2006* Had this album been released back in 1975 or 1976, this very well might have been as significant as, say, Kiss "Alive" or the Who's "Live At Leeds." In the first case, THAT album brought a worldwide audience to a group with only three previous, poor-to-average sales. This would have done the same. As in the second case, it demonstrates a whole new, but unbelievably powerful side to a performer mostly known for their studio work. Simply put, this album shows that Bruce and The E Street Band were easily among the best live performers of the day. And now, thirty years on, it shows that they're amongst the best ever. There is energy here that would shame the most hyperactive punk rocker. There is musicianship here that would impress any elitist jazz critic. There is drama here that would astonish any modern day film student. Yes, film. These performances play in your head like film. They're vivid, detailed. They have plot and characters. There's suspense and comedy. This is the real deal, the whole magillah. This is an unbelievably satisfying listening experience. The best thing about the record, besides the fact that such a well recorded document from such a legendary show even exists, is that we Bruce fans can hear the band tear through songs from the "Born To Run" album like we've never heard them before. "Born To Run" is not a career highpoint yet, it's a call to arms. My God..."She's The One" is a hurtling freight train, out of control; loud, fast and loose. It's thrilling. The band isn't playing songs they've played a thousand times before. They are finding their way through new sounds and tempos and textures. All that creative energy comes RIGHT through your speakers. Listen to Clarence's sax breaks...they're fresh and explosive. Listen to Roy Bittan's piano...masterful chord works with finger-knotting flourishes. Hear Miami Steve wailing along, dueling with the Boss himself on call-and-response guitar solos as if the two of them are facing off in an alley with knives in a gangfight. Has Max Weinberg ever been as clean and crisp, yet at the same time thundering like no other? The set list is a dream. Getting the Detroit medley and a rollicking "Quarter to Three" to end the show is a treat for rock fans, not just Bruce fans. "Thunder Road" regains its' poetry. "Jungleland" retains its' epic, widescreen quality. "Rosalita" remains a full-on party, as does an early-in-the-show "Tenth Avenue." I think it's fine that this is available on video AND audio. I will probably listen to this more than I will re-visit the DVD, but they are BOTH nice to have. And for a pathologic Bruce fan like myself, essential. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/11880327-hammersmith-odeon-london-75](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/11880327-hammersmith-odeon-london-75) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
