Springsteen Live At The Main Point 1975
Posted by Pat Carty on 9 May 2011 - 5:09pm.
Just a question for anyone who may have bought this, does the sound drop out during Kitty's Back, remain bogus during New York City Serenade and then come back up for Rosalita? I just bought it and I want to make sure I don't have a bad cd (it's very good by the way)

Why the Boss' "people"
haven't jumped on this release from a great height is puzzling
according to Uncut, it's legally released
"thanks to a loophole that allows US broadcasts to be released in the UK". ( It was originally recorded for broadcast by Philly station WMMR-FM.)
Really?
ok bring on Winterland 1978 please! I only have about 4 different versions of it
And is that the artwork they are using? Surely they could have done better than that
It's good to see that bootleggers still have trouble
with spelling...
That's a boot of the WMMR-FM tape that first appeared on the famous boot "You Can Trust Your Car To The Man Who Wears The Star" and is freely available on that Interweb in FLAC.
I didn't notice the spelling mistake
a friend has some dealing in the vinyl boot market and proudly gave me his latest Velvets release. Proud until I said 'Should that really be 'European SUN?'. Much expletive filled the air
The most famous mis-spelled boot is, of course...
Electrif Lycanthrope.
New York Street Serenade
On my disc (bought from a major online retailer), the sound quality on 'New York Street Serenade' isn't as good as 'Kitty's Back' or 'Rosalita' - it sounds like your typical FM radio bootleg quality. I'm not going to worry about it.
Although how come a major online retailer can sell bootlegs?
Are there any other bootlegs that major retailers sell worth having?
Agree with your comments
re sound - a fellow Massive member kindly sent me a copy of this a few weeks ago , and as you say its an excellent show.
love the version of i want you
Given his comments about the wild the innocent, the first reviewer on amazon uk clearly wasn't Archie V.

on spelling , having an sizeable collection of african albums
my trademark of quality is incorrect spelling and preferably incorrect track listings.
Spelling.
Not had a chance to check the sound quality but on my copy 'Point' is spelled correctly.
Oh, dear!
If only my grammar was. Thats what you get for posting immediately after getting up!
I've looked into it
and apparently the same thing happens on all the old bootleg copies of the concert, the quality dips considerably at the start of New York City Serenade which is a shame as it's one of my favourites. The quality of the first disk is excellent but let the buyer beware.
