TWIST AND SHOUT
Free concert to celebrate the tenth anniversary of WMMS, although the anniversary was somewhat artificial - it actually marked the change of
call letters from WHK-FM to WMMS. The radio station drew postcards to give away almost 1200 tickets to the show. Broadcast by WMMS and simulcast
by WABX in Detroit, WDVE in Pittsburgh, WEBN in Cincinnati, WLVO in Columbus, OH, WXRT in Chicago, KSHE in St. Louis and KQRS in Minneapolis with
a total audience for the broadcast estimated at three million. Denny Sanders was the on-air DJ, while Kid Leo introduced Bruce on stage: round for
round, pound for pound, there ain't no finer band around, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band! It's interesting to note that this show was
later mastered by Bruce's management and given to KSAN in San Francisco who broadcast it as a replacement for a scheduled Winterland rebroadcast
some time in 1979, WNEW-FM in New York City for a broadcast on Easter Sunday of 1979 and WWDC 101 in Washington D.C. on November 5. The song order
of the WNEW-FM broadcast was adjusted, and the tape was edited to remove references to Cleveland. WMMS themselves also rebroadcast the entire gig
on November 5. This remastered tape has fantastic stereo separation and coupled with the fact that this is a good show in the first place, it has
to rank as one of the best of the available shows in 1978. 22-song set opens with "Summertime Blues" and closes with "Twist And Shout", performed
some time after the radio broadcast had concluded. "Backstreets" is dedicated to Jim Kluter and Joe Juhasz, two of the 'Cleveland Boys', a group
of hardcore fans that first met Bruce in Asbury Park in 1976, joining him for a benefit softball game. It's Jim and Joe's voices that you can hear
along with Bruce's singing "explode into rock 'n' roll bands" during "Jungleland". Clarence's intro during "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" contains
a snippet of The Village People's hit "Macho Man".
In May 2012 Cleveland's Plain Dealer reported that Agora owner Henry LoConti was attempting to release a four-CD set of the show. While one audio
feed (for radio, produced by Jimmy Iovine) went to a production truck (actually an old school bus converted into a recording studio by Sam Kopper,
a former announcer at Boston's WBCN) outside the venue, another went to Agency Recording, a studio located above the Agora, which recorded the show
onto 24-track tape for a possible live album. (Although it appears that the masters LoConti owned were only 2-track. Perhaps while a 24-track feed
did go to the recording studio, LoConti only kept a mixed-down, 2-track version. The location of any multi-track masters is currently unknown).
LoConti transferred this tape and made ten copies of the box set, which also includes Springsteen's June 1974 set at the Agora. Copies were sent
to Springsteen, Steve Van Zandt and Springsteen's management asking permission to issue the set, with all proceeds going to the Western Reserve
Historical Society. Unfortunately, no permission was forthcoming. In addition, LoConti also claimed that the set includes an extra track not
included on bootlegs, but as far as we know, "Twist And Shout" was the final song, a position which is supported by press and fan reports.
"Twist And Shout" was not included in the original broadcast, and may have been missing from the earliest vinyl bootlegs. "Twist And Shout" was
first broadcast the following day, and on subsequent rebroadcasts of the show. Sadly, Henry "Hank" LoConti passed away in May 2014.
Official concert recording available for purchase in multiple formats, including CD and high definition audio, from Springsteen's official live
download site at live.brucespringsteen.net. Soundboard and radio broadcast tapes. In December 2014, this was the second in a series of archive
shows to be officially released at live.brucespringsteen.net. The seven 15ips, half-track tapes located by Toby Scott were transferred via the
Plangent Process, the same analogue tape restoration technique used to good effect for the November 2014 box-set release of Springsteen's first
seven albums (although Plangent was not used for The River). and mastered by Gateway Mastering. The show is available as a three-CD set, as well
as MP3, FLAC, ALAC and 24 bit 192kHz high definition FLAC. The audio quality of this transfer is a fine upgrade over any previously available
bootleg. Also released on various bootleg LPs and CDs including Crystal Cat's 'Agora Night' (the best quality available from bootleg sources,
transferred from pre-FM reels), 'Just In Time For Summer' (no label listed), 'Agora 1978' (Super Sonic) and 'Summertime Bruce' (E Street Records).
Released to retail in 2014 under the title 'Agora Ballroom 1978' (Left Field Media). This is not an official release.
Enjoy The Show,
Jeff
