1972-03-14 - CHALLENGER EASTERN SURFBOARDS, HIGHLANDS, NJ
DON'T YOU WANT TO BE AN OUTLAW (6:57) / IT'S ALL OVER NOW, BABY BLUE (11:30) / WHEN YOU DANCE (13:35) /
LOOK TOWARDS THE LAND (9:50) / I'VE GOT TO HAVE YOU BABY (5:39) / FUNK SONG (6:25)
The above mentioned six songs are taken from audio of a Bruce Springsteen Band rehearsal. The band line-up is
Van Zandt-Sancious-Tallent-Lopez. In addition to the 55 minutes of music there are nearly seven minutes of
fascinating between-song banter, much of it between Springsteen and Tinker West, who Bruce jokingly refers to as
'Stinky'. Tinker appears to be testing some new recording equipment. The sound quality is uniformly excellent.
It is evident from the discussions that the rehearsals had been going on for some time before the recording starts.
It should be noted that this is not Challenger's more famous Wanamassa location that Bruce had lived in during
the 1969-70 Steel Mill era. Tinker West had relocated the factory to Highlands, NJ in mid-1971 and had then
constructed a more professional rehearsal room.
The standout track here is "When You Dance". Although rough quality live renditions exist, this is a clear rendition,
with astounding Springsteen-Van Zandt dual lead guitar interplay. Noteworthy as well is "Funk Song" (also known as
"Funk Says Right On"). There are no live renditions of "Funk Song" from this period circulating, however Bruce
surprisingly resurrected it during a few shows early on the Born To Run Tour (see gig listings for July 23, 1975 ,
July 19, 1975 and August 8, 1975 ). In addition to the Dylan's "All Over Now Baby Blue", there is also a cover of
"I've Got To Have You Baby", an obscure 1956 R&B single by Jimmy Jones & The Pretenders. "Look Towards The Land"
first surfaced on the boot "Bound For Glory" (Flamingo), albeit in vastly reduced sound quality to that found on the
master tape. "Don't You Want To Be An Outlaw" (also known by the titles "Jesse James" or "Billy") first surfaced on
'Deep Down In The Vaults' (E Street). The sound quality on this boot is only slightly reduced from the master tape.
In early 2007 the soundboard of all six songs (62 minutes audio) finally surfaced (in excellent quality) into
the mainstream collector market via the title 'Uber Series #26' and then remastered as 'Prodigal Son Meets The Ubers #5'
(Prodigal Son) and 'The Early Uber Collection'

itself. It was broadcast live by WGOE-FM via a remote link. In addition to the DJ the small audience heard in the studio included
Mike Appel, Jim Cretecos, Albee Tellone and David Sancious (who had yet to join the band but who was employed at the studio at
the time). Albee Tellone has recently commented that he does not believe he was in the audience, but setting up the equipment for
the evening show at Richmond Coliseum. The above-mentioned six-song setlist is the complete performance. After the show Mike Appel
took possession of the master tape, so none of the performance was ever re-broadcast by the station. Fortunately a fan taped the
entire show from their radio, although the sound quality was weak. Although this audience audio had been in circulation since the
on the 1976 vinyl LP boot 'Resurrected' in poor quality. This later appeared in better quality on the CD 'Radio Waves' (Great Dane).
The entire fan-recorded version is now available on a custom CDR boot entitled 'Strictly Prohibited'.
A low generation copy of the entire original master tape (noted above) first surfaced (in very limited hands) in the early 1990s.

missing about 20 seconds mid-song, seemingly the result of a tape glitch. There are historical inaccuracies in the liner notes of the
the song was performed during 1973 and two live recordings from early 1973 are in circulation. However, the song does feature a couple
verses of "Shotgun" in the midsection. The CD also incorrectly lists the audio as coming from the January 5 show. Yet comments made by
solo piano version.
A soundboard recording of the final eight songs of this show (the entire second set) had been in very limited circulation since the early
1990s. However four of these eight soundboard songs surfaced into the wider collector arena on various boots during the mid-late 1990s.
in 1998. The fact that most of these CD boots misidentified the source venue or date created much confusion that still lingers today.
In early 2007 the soundboard of all eight songs in the second set finally surfaced (in excellent quality) into the mainstream collector
'Deep Down In The Vaults' (see above). This source is also available on pressed CDs 'Live From Joe's Place' from Godfatherecords and
'Second Set 1974' from Vintage Masters. The soundboard of the opening seven songs of this show (the entire first set) has not surfaced
into the mainstream, it allegedly exists in the hands of only a few people.
Evidence has now emerged (printed in The Real Paper on January 16, 1974) that only one song was recorded on the afternoon of Sunday
January 6, for the benefit of Muscular Dystrophy. This was likely a local fund-raiser, rather than a national telethon. Two takes of
"Does This Bus Stop At 82nd Street?" were recorded, without an audience. This was filmed with the aim of showing it on local TV in March,
perhaps on a benefit show, but it is unclear whether this ever happened. This recording still exists, but only in private collections.
Enjoy The Show,
Jeff
