All songs are performed in different cities. Most notable is the version of "Open All Night" where his story is a bit different and specific talking about Exit 8 and Hightstown, NJ and it was the cop who told him "Son, out on the highway we're Open All Night"!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-91697875092017987632012-08-29T16:32:12.383-05:002012-08-29T16:32:12.383-05:00I have this CD, and I'm curious about one thin...I have this CD, and I'm curious about one thing: does it sound like the tape machine used for the master is going a mite too fast? I patched a couple of the songs into Audacity, slowed them down by around 5% (10% in the case of My Father's House) and found they sounded a lot more natural.swachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09157064455715797367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-85318622478910788742012-02-21T04:38:23.911-06:002012-02-21T04:38:23.911-06:00What a treat!

Nebraska has always been my favorite of his work. I think mainly due to it's simplicity, and yet vivid imagery. The Nebraska album really defined him as a "songwriter's songwriter", in which his writing craft matured. Thank you for the three part reminder of why Springsteen is considered so talented.
