Bruce Springsteen The 1977 Collection

You can't get these photographs anyplace else except here at ShiveArchive.com! 

Where were you in 1977?  Were you at one of the 2 recent releases of Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band's live shows in Rochester or Albany ? Do you now wish you were at one of these legendary performances?  If you were there you saw a hunger & passion in Bruce like never before, the E Street Band was incredibly tight and the sets were mind blowing. 

These recordings brought back all of the memories from that time period, I reached into my film archives and I found there were many unseen images to share!  It was March 14, 1977, Poughkeepsie NY, the power in the evenings show was similar to the many shows I photographed throughout 1976... except it was an even more amazing. Is that possible?  

These rare photographs have never been released as fine art prints or been seen by anyone since that day, so for me to be able to finally share these images is especially exciting and also from this same show I also captured the band in living color. High speed film in 1977 was limited, with no recommendations from Kodak I experimented and WOW!  The results were better than I could have hoped. 

A show that was captured in living color and we have the soundtrack too.

Here is the new "Bruce Springsteen 1977 Collection" from James Shive.

Enjoy the show.
