But then, all music is best experienced live, imho. Studio music is second best; something of the humanness is lost in the process of studio recording. Ah, yes.

I know, I know, apostasy, but that song has always rubbed me the wrong way, I think because it was so stupidly popular in 1975. I will listen to every album, every song, except that one.

Or you could argue that the rise of civilization can be traced in a straight line from Aristotle to Thunder Road -- I regard Bruce as a modern day Woody Guthrie — whatever you think of his politics, you can’t deny that he is a true blue American who really loves this country and its people.

Music is visceral to me, I either like it or I don't. Bruce's songs about life and love speak to me more than his political ones do, but I don't choose to like or dislike them because of the explicit or implied political message. Likewise all other musicians. Wow, I’m with Peter on this one, jealous as all get out.

So who are my ALL-time favorites? Brooooce. Bonnie Raitt. Jackson Browne. I *still* haven't figured out how that happened. I'm jealous, too. I’m leaning further and further right the older I get.

I guess he thought Bruce wasn't going to go anywhere. I’m soooo jealous –
