Comment
Label : Crystal Cat - 612/613/614 (3CD)
Date of the show : December 7, 2001
Almost three months after the Holiday shows by Bruce Springsteen, the Max Weinberg Seven and Friends in Asbury Park, Crystal Cat Records (CCR) has released Jingle Bells Night.
Although many Springsteen fans with an internet connection will have gotten their hands on one or more of the December 2001 shows through a trade or a tree, the CCR label fortunately deemed it necessary to release the December 7 show. Fortunately, because CCR has become a guarantee for fine releases in very good sound quality over the years, and this release sounds better than the recordings that have been circulating over the internet. Packaging of the set is fairly decent, something CCR usually puts quite some work into. There are a few errors in the songtitles in the tracklisting and the live photos (not from the December 7 show but from the next night) are not superb, but due to the very strict security photographers had a very hard time doing their job. All in all it's a small miracle in itself that any photos have come out of the Convention Hall.
CCR has chosen to release the 4th Holiday show (December 7). It's especially the last show, that was the longest and featured the most special guests, that has spread through the internet. Of course we don't know whether this is the reason CCR released the December 7 show, but it's a fact that with this one they picked the best show. The opening is already phenomenal, when after the horns intro 'Deck The Halls' Bruce kicks off the concert with the piano version of 'Incident On 57th Street'. It's a shame the way two American ladies keep talking near the
microphone of the taper, chosing this precious moment to discuss every day life.
The concert takes a hilarious turn when Bruce Hornsby is called on stage. After a Chistmas medley on piano and a beautiful duet with Springsteen on 'The End Of The Innocence', Hornsby gets to bring in his accordion for 'You Sexy Thing', a Hot Chocolate cover. A unique choice of repertoire for Springsteen.
At the start of Southside Johnny's song 'This Time It's For Real' something happens with the taper's microphone, causing the sound quality to become a little less for a while. Fortunately this is only for a short period of time, and sound quality for the remainder of the show is fine again. That the show is (one of) the best of the week in Asbury Park is also clear from Bruce's words before the encores, when he thanks the audience with the words: "Great show, great
audience."
The bonustracks are from the other four Holiday shows and are of lesser sound quality. Unfortunately, CCR couldn't cram all the other songs played on the third disc. A bit odd is the choice to include a part of Bruce's spoken intro to 'My City Of Ruins' from the last show as the final track of the set. The track is called "Bruce Thanks Backstreets and others" (CCR probably finds it so unique that Bruce mentioned Backstreets magazine that this influenced the decision). As a result of this, the songs by Garland Jeffreys and the South Community Choir get completely ignored. Judging from the response by the audience, these were the least appreciated songs during the shows and therefore they'll probably won't be missed that much. Especially Garland Jeffreys got a cool reception by the audience, leading to an angry reaction by Bruce on December 6th.
