You know what ... this kinda works. Like the last few days of summer playing this as the sunsets? Gonna hit.
been going back and forth on this either totally rules or is completely unnecessary. it's prob both! I don't think it totally works under the framing of 'reimagined w everything we know now about playing as a band' or however JA sold it in the original announcement - the original is still a completely pure version of his music even if the contribution from the supporting cast wasn't excellent E street worship yet - but it is a really nice alternate version of a great record.
