Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's emotional ten-night stand at Madison Square Garden inspired an Emmy-winning HBO special and a critically acclaimed live album. Now, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band - Live in New York City is available as a two DVD set. It features 11 songs that were not included in the HBO broadcast, as well as 'NYC Serenade', a 15-minute featurette culled from rare interview, concert and rehearsal footage.
Recorded in full Dolby 5.1 digital surround sound and captured using Sony's HDCAM 1080/6Oi high definition format, this DVD will allow fans to experience the HBO broadcast on a new level. In addition to the one hour-5O minute HBO film, there is an hour and twenty minutes of new live footage - including full performances of 'Backstreets', 'Don't Look Back', Darkness on the Edge of Town', 'Lost in the Flood', 'Born in the USA', Jungleland'. 'Light of Day', 'The Promise', 'Thunder Road', 'Ramrod' and 'If I Should Fall Behind' - that was not seen on television. There is also a rare live rendition of 'The E Street Shuffle' provided as the backdrop to the video's end credits.
In addition, the 'Live in New York City' DVD set includes 'NYC Serenade', which takes viewers behind the scenes of the E Street Band's triumphant return to New York after more than ten years away from the road. The fifteen-minute featurette includes performance footage of 12 songs, including rarities such as 'Adam Raised a Cain', 'Back in Your Arms' and 'Blood Brothers'; backstage interviews with each band member; and a gallery of backstage and live concert photos.
Documenting what was undeniably the biggest concert event of 2000, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band - Live in New York City garnered extensive praise from critics. According to Entertainment Weekly's Chris Willman, "With the thrilling new 'Live in New York City', Bruce Springsteen gives fans another reason to believe."
