Le monde avait-il besoin d'un énième pompage de Johnny B.Goode?

Citation de Kyle William le 14 mai 2025, 19 h 06 min

Définitivement oui. Chuck Berry, malgré de très longs états de service, n'étant malheureusement plus là pour se pomper lui-même, entendre cette intro de guitare vieille de 70 ans une énième fois en 2025 m'a fait ma journée.

Etait-ce pertinent par contre de publier ce titre anecdotique au sein d'un nouvel album en 1995 ? Probablement pas. Ce qui explique sans doute pourquoi il se retrouve au sein d'un coffret regroupant des morceaux mis au panier à l'époque.

Quelques petites infos sur le contexte.

"Bruce Springsteen will release “Somewhere North of Nashville” in full on “Tracks II: The Lost Albums” (out June 27 via Sony Music), a previously-unheard collection inspired by the sounds of honky tonk, rockabilly and uptempo country. Recorded simultaneously with “The Ghost of Tom Joad” in the summer of 1995, “Somewhere North of Nashville” features much of the core band at the heart of those sessions — including Danny Federici, Garry Tallent and Gary Mallaber. Adding elements like pedal steel from Marty Rifkin (later a member of The Sessions Band) and fiddle from Soozie Tyrell, “Somewhere North of Nashville” saw Springsteen spontaneously cutting material live in the studio with a full band, not unlike what he had done for the recording of “Born In The U.S.A.” a decade earlier. Fittingly, the tracklist for "Somewhere North of Nashville" includes two songs originally planned for that album, "Stand On It" and "Janey Don't You Lose Heart."

“What happened was I wrote all these country songs at the same time I wrote ‘The Ghost of Tom Joad.’ Those sessions completely overlap each other. I’m singing ‘Repo Man’ in the afternoon and ‘The Line’ at night. So the country record got made right along with ‘The Ghost of Tom Joad,’” Springsteen recalled. “‘Streets of Philadelphia’ got me connected to my socially conscious or topical songwriting. So that’s where ‘The Ghost of Tom Joad’ came from. But at the same time I had this country streak that was also running through those sessions and I ended up making a country record on the side.”

2 septembre 1995. Repo Man enregistré avant ou après ce concert ?

Comment dire...les images sont légèrement répétitives.
