Nils is the premier guitar slinger of his generation

Usually Nils backs other artists in major tours like The Boss, Ringo Starr and Neil Young. It is only fitting that Ringo and Bruce back him on the video for Valentine which opens this concert from London. Two acoustic numbers open the show - Secrets in the Street and Keith Don't Go. Nils then jumps on the piano bench to perform the classic Going Back. Then the fireworks begin.

The electric set opens with Rock and Roll Crook, Moon Tears and Delivery Night. These three alone are worth the cost of the video but another hour follows with some spirited new songs and old favorites. There is a very fresh rendition of a thirty year old song from the first Grin album.

Max Weinberg is on drums and has since returned with Nils to be part of the E Street Band World tour.

Guitar Master Lofgren Amazes Once Again

I've seen Nils Lofgren dozens of times in the Washington, DC area and it's a treat each time. Lofgren is one of the most talented guitarists ever and his music gets better and better as time goes by. This video will not disappoint you.

Classics like Rock and Roll Crook, Keith Don't Go and Delivery Night are amazing. I've watched it over and over again. I don't know what else to say except that Nils Lofgren is one of the best performers I have seen and I highly recommend this video.

What a life: tour America with Bruce Springsteen whenever the spirit moves the latter, then spend some time connecting with your own, adoring fan base. OK, so maybe life isn't quite that simple for Nils Lofgren, but this wonderful concert program, shot in London in 1990, makes perfectly clear how the Boss's ace guitarist (and occasional Neil Young cohort) becomes a prince of classic rock forms on his own time. Backed by a tightly knit bunch of true believers, including brother Tommy Lofgren and Mighty Max Weinberg of the E Street Band, the star explores perfect constructions of pure-pop enigma and deep mystery ("Keith Don't Go"), beautiful anthems of faith ("Delivery Night"), and emotional duality (the mournful yet incendiary "Moon Tears"). Even the occasional cover seems renewed and revitalized through Lofgren's fresh, personal take: the Goffin-King "Going Back," Bill Withers's "Lean on Me," and Lennon-McCartney's "Anytime at All." The audience of Lofgren fanatics hangs on every open-armed gesture their hero makes, and unless one is asleep while watching this document, it's hard not to feel the same way. --Tom Keogh
