(130 views)Ciao to The Boss
The Boss has blitzed crowds at Glastonbury and Hyde Park, taking the match beyond 5 sets on each occasion!
To mark his triumphant return home I have chosen a wonderful live version of 'The Ghost of Tom Joad.' Where he is joined on vocals and accoustic guitar by none other than; Rage Against the Machine's - Tom Morello.
It lasts just over 8 minutes but it is 8 minutes of unadulterated joy. If you like it as much as I do, it is taken from a mini album, 'Highlights From the Magic Tour,' available on I-Tunes.
As ever enjoy.

wherever a hungry newborn baby cries, where there's a fight against the blood
and hatred in the air
look for me mum
I'll be there
so would I son
inspiration in a few short words.....
all of these seet words in that wonderful guitar of the two great Springsteen and Morello.....monica
