As we've discussed in numerous posts here at So Many Roads, 1975 was a breakthrough year for Bruce Springsteen. That year, he released Born To Run, played historic concerts at The Bottom Line in NY and The Roxy in Los Angeles, and made the covers of Time and Newsweek in the same week. Yet despite the critical acclaim, Bruce still had not yet graduated to playing arena and stadium size shows. When he went back out on the road in Spring 1976, his road crew referred to the 2 month run of shows as The Chicken Scratch tour. The nickname reflected the meandering route the tour took the south, midwest, and northeast US, hitting numerous small towns where the band had never before played, and often backtracking on itself to get to the next gig. This soundboard recording captures Bruce during that tour on April 29, 1976, 44 years ago today, in Memphis. A year earlier, One side note - aftewr the show, Bruce's made a visit to Graceland. Upon arrival, he noticed a light on in the house, assumed it meant the King was home, and proceeded to jump the gates. Security intervened, had no idea who he was despite Bruce's efforts to explain he had been on the covers of Time and Newsweek, and politely escorted him to the street!
