This was recorded at the LA Sports Arena on "The River" Tour. August 21st, 1981. I was blessed to have been there. Only time I have ever seen Waits live.
OMG I never knew this recording existed of my two all time favorites. I once met Tom @ a Bruce show @Byrne arena(Meadowlands,NJ) 1984. the sad thing is no one recognized him but I was in complete awe.Yes he was super cool if U R wondering. Thanx 4 posting
Predivna pjesma, vrhunski izvođaći. Obožavam obojicu. Jednom ću posjetiti New Jersey da vidim gdje je odrastao Bruce. Marry Christmas and happy NY to everyone!
Oh thank you, the only other version on youtube finishes before they do!! It's just the fade out but it never gives you the satisfaction of hearing the end.
Almost every RUclips vid of this song has discussion wether Tom or Bruce is better. This version proofs you simply can't compare the two.... Absolutely legendary. Thank you so much for uploading!
Tom Waits, Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi... All outstanding performers, all doing this song in outstanding versions.. Sems that even Tom wrote it, Bruce kinda "earned the right" for it over the years... And everyone who made it after Bruce did, are all copycats... I dont know, but i just love it... Regardless of who sings it... Great song, it always makes me feel good... And thats what its all about, i reckon...

Gotta be one of the best songs ever. Makes a heart just mellow happy and sad all at once.

tom just knocks him out of the park on this one. two legends! goed lost the mould for them it would seem because nothing now can compare
Would have give anything to have see this, thanks
That must have been a wonder to see in person.
He was great on broadway many years later.
Nothing like Tom. I'm glad to see Bruce bow to him and not try to be the man.
merci
