Does the book say that specifically for "Save My Love"? I was under the impression he wrote the music in 78, but they never recorded it until this year, as well as he wrote the lyrics this year. I know Dave Marsh said one song was all new (of course he's wrong a lot of times ). I can't remember what Bruce said about it last night- I have to listen to the interview again. I know he said "Because the Night" is new, and "Racing in the Street" is all old. Personally, I think there is more new on here than I thought. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Some songs sound pretty obvious; others, not so much. Racing to me was clearly 78, "Because the Night" I wasn't sure. I'm really curious about "Rendezvous"

Now, for the best part of what I came on here to say.

I got the Paramount show last night from iTunes, and Holy freaking crap, Batman, it's fantastic!

Bruce played that guitar like a man posessed! My jaw dropped during "Adam Raised a Cain", but "Prove it All Night"? Oh. My. Lord! And "Racing in the Street" was just beautiful, although it's never sounded so sad to me. But then "Promised Land" follows it with the hope. That really clicked for me last night. I always loved "Promised Land", and I love it even more now.

After this, I don't think I'll ever listen to the studio Darkness again.
