Description:
The documentary Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Blood Brothers chronicles recording sessions for songs included on the 1995 triple platinum CD Bruce Springsteen Greatest Hits, and captures Springsteen in the studio with the E Street Band for the first time since their work on 1984's Born in the U.S.A. The DVD features interactive menus, lyrics, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound, and additional special features.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Blood Brothers premiered on The Disney Channel March 3, 1996. TV Guide described the documentary as "superlative," and added: "Ernie Fritz's film is more than a record of a legendary band's reunion. It offers a glimpse of Springsteen that fans rarely see." Blood Brothers was released on VHS on November 19, 1996. A double-sided laser disc version of the film was first released on October 1, 1996. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Blood Brothers features music from the songs "Blood Brothers," "High Hopes," "This Hard Land," "Back in Your Arms Again," and "Without You," as well as music videos for "Murder Incorporated" and "Secret Garden."

This intimate documentary is a must-have for Bruce Springsteen fans, capturing a magical time in 1995 when the Boss and the E Street Band reunited in New York's Hit Factory for their first studio sessions in 11 years. During the recording of new songs for Springsteen's 1995 Greatest Hits release, filmmaker Ernie Fritz was given full access to the band's collaborative process, including the live music video performance of "Murder Incorporated" for filmmaker Jonathan Demme. While bandmates and studio personnel offer insights about their history under Springsteen's democratic leadership, two people make particularly memorable impressions. First, Springsteen's longtime producer- manager Jon Landau is seen as a benevolent guiding force, with eloquent opinions about the uniqueness of Springsteen's artistic vision. Then there is Springsteen, revealed here as a genuine working-class hero, playful and generous while remaining intensely focused on finding the perfect approach to each new song. --Jeff Shannon

This was a very good look at a band that clearly are friends.The dynamics in the studio are amazingly loose.Clearly Bruce had it worked out in his mind but let the band members bring their own creativity to the process.
They had not been in the studio in years yet were able to bring it together in what appeared to be fairly quickly.
The depth of feeling between band members was obvious and felt real.
Very enjoyable and some great music.

This DVD is exactly what I hoped it'd be. Intimate.
Tender. Gritty. Real. Getting to see the band together
again, the nervousness, the ease with which they get
back into the groove is great. Having a window into
these moments is priceless. It's the closest I'll ever
get to the band I'm sure, and I'm grateful they allowed
us this glimpse into their lives, the band, and the
process of recording. There were a few moments
when the emotion of the ... Read More

This a nice little edition to my collection of Bruce films. I bought this the day it came out, very good and very insightful on how the songs are created. Bruce just comes into the room and starts playing the songs while the other guys are taking notes, its like a classroom on how to build a song. Its like Bruce wants them to find a way to make the song sound good with there ideas.... hes very generous in that way...I thought it was cool the way he treated the gentlemen with the version of Secret ...

This is a great DVD not only for the Bruce fan, but for anyone who is interested in how records are made. This DVD takes you right inside the studio like no other documentary I've ever seen, from Bruce showing the guys the songs on his acoustic guitar, right down to the tracking and shooting of the video. You'll not only hear from Bruce but from all the members of the E-Street band, the producers and the engineers, as to what it's like to work with him.
There are plenty of classic studio ... Read More

Two films come to mind when watching this, The Beatles "Let It Be" and The Stones,"Sympathy for the Devil". I would rank this below the former and above the latter.
If you love Bruce, this is a must see. One qustion though, why do they devote so much time to his manager talking about the friggin' Press Relase? Is this all that managers do?
