Better to witness live, at the local watering hole, after a few refreshments.

2 1 :puke:

Why dont we hear more old JLL? This album makes him sound old... and drunk... and old.

Wow this sounds like that late late night jam after several shots of tequila that nobody expected was caught on tape. Hoowee.

Neither man at his best. But neither at their worst, either. Tolerable.

Truth in labeling: This should have been called the Jerry Lee Lewis Welfare Project. Maybe a good cause, but a tedious song.

No. Please.

Jerry Lee was The Killer. Bruce was The Boss.

Let me remember them the way they were.

This sucks.

Wonderful follow through from I'ts Hard to be a Saint ...

Pink Cadillac is superb as is the whole album, Jerry is a wonda!

so not worth it.

Soooo many versions of this to hate...

I'm still bummed nobody got my "Peat mirroballs of fire" comment in the Afrocelts thread

Jerry sounds a little slurry....still knows how to bang the keys, though...

Now we've gone over to the darkside.

I'm feeling intensely meh about this version.

Don't forget Natalie Cole's version, not the best but she was cute in the video

Everything I've heard from this album sounds to me like Jerry is a few years past his prime. But it's still 'The Killer', so past his prime is still pretty hot.

The album feels more like a tribute album than a real musical effort. But that's okay too, they're obviously having fun and that counts for a lot.

Listened to this whole album out the back the other night, ít's so good an now to find it here on mains, bloody brilliant, fantastic add!

I'll take the Springsteen. By himself.

edit: my mistake, I was sure I'd heard Jerry Lee Lewis sing this before Springsteen. After some research, it's a duet.

Always been one of my favorite Bruce songs (hey, shut up!), and having Jerry Lee Lewis contribute doesn't hurt it. Is the Clarence Clemons on the horn? I'm really enjoying this -- a great early morning pick-up!

Pretty strange reaction to this. I really like Jerry Lee Lewis, I'm not a huge Springsteen fan. So one would think I would consider this to be an improvement. But I like the original much better.
