No E Street Bandies (except for wife Patti Scialfa and several lesser known members), but Bruce and the assemblage—consisting of horn guys blowing Dixieland, guitarists, fiddlers etc.—make the mostly traditional tunes hop, skip and jump. Songs include John Henry, Erie Canal, Jacob’s Ladder and Shenandoah. The flip side is a DVD with a 30 minute movie of Bruce and the band. If you don’t like Springsteen’s over-the-top strut and style, buy something else; that said, he’s to be congratulated for turning what could have been a boring, pedantic exercise into a celebration. Will Asbury Park’s favorite son inspire another folk scare in the USA?
