Saturday Sounds - Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band - 1984/07/26, 2nd Set - CNE Grandstand, Toronto, ON

This week's musical treat is another blast from the past: Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band on July 26th, 1984 filmed at their third show in a run of three at the CNE Grandstand in Toronto, Ontario. 

I was at the first of the three concerts on the 23rd and loved every minute of it. This video is of the second set. Checking the setlist online shows that it was almost identical to the show I saw. 

Video quality is vintage 1984 and has been remastered so it's watchable and the audio is from a soundboard. Comparing it to the show I saw last November, I'd say the performance is more energetic, but the current E-Street Band is better musically and way more powerful. Either way, you can't go wrong.
