London Calling: Live in Hyde Park will be released by Columbia Records on June 22nd. The show, filmed at London’s Hyde Park on June 28th 2009, was shot in HD and will be released in two different formats: a Blu-Ray disc and a double DVD. This Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band performance includes 26 song over 163 minutes.
It is surprising that this is the chosen show to represent the Working on a Dream tour, considering it was not really one of the best performances of the tour and Bruce’s voice was particularly soar that night. The shows from the final leg of the tour (including those at Giants Stadium, the Spectrum, MSG or the final night in Buffalo) were simply phenomenal. Maybe the Hyde Park show has been chosen as it’s a more standard, for-the-masses set list and it was shot in HD? Add to this «Rosalita» has been literally amputated from the show.
Back in 2009, Jon Landau said the plans for 2010 included a Working on a Dream tour DVD (Hyde Park) and a Darkness-era box-set, still due.
