Review : The 1990 benefit concerts that brought Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne together in support of the Christic Institute are considered essential performances for Springsteen collectors. The famous bootleg CD set Springsteen, Raitt and Browne presented nice audience captures of all three artists’ sets from the first night and there are multiple audience recordings of both shows. Many years later, a soundboard recording of Springsteen’s performance on the second night surfaced and two years ago both of Springsteen’s complete sets were officially released as part of Bruce’s archival download series. But until now, no soundboard recordings of Bonnie Raitt or Jackson Browne sets have ever emerged. How JEMS came into possession of complete, master soundboard DAT recordings of both nights will need to stay shrouded in a bit of mystery to protect our source, but if there is a lesson to be shared from the experience it is always ask people in the industry if they ever recorded any concerts. You never know what they might be sitting on. This is a direct transfer of the master DAT tape recorded off the board of Jackson’s second night set and it is an excellent mono capture. In time we will get to the first night and both of Bonnie’s performances.
