Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes - I Don't Want To Go Home (1976)








If you're a fan of Bruce Springsteen chances are you've heard of these guys. They've played a ton of shows together, are from the same town, and Bruce Springsteen wrote two of the songs on this record, not to mention it's produced by, and also includes some stand out tracks written by Miami Steve Van Zandt of E-Street fame. The Miami Horns also play on this, who also played several live shows with Bruce Springsteen and The E-Street Band. Really awesome stuff, definitely similar to Bruce Springsteen in sound. The Fever would have fit right in with Kitty's Back on The Wild, The Innocent, The E-Street Shuffle, and it's been performed many times by Bruce during E-street tours, and almost every year recently during his annual Asbury Park Christmas Fundraiser, most of the time with Southside Johnny joining on stage. This is a really great white-r&b/bar-rock album.

Tracklist:
1. I Don't Want To Go Home
2. Got To Get You Off My Mind
3. How Come You Treat Me So Bad
4. The Fever
