Steve Van Zandt about Wrecking Ball: “I absolutely love it”
02.01.12
Here’s what Steve had to say about Wrecking Ball in a recent interview with The Huffington Post:

“I’m going to let him talk about it but, basically, I will tell you this: I love the album. I just absolutely love it, I think you’re going to love it and I think everybody else is too. The fact that a guy at his level of success, at his age, is still making records this vital and this relevant and this good, makes me just doubly proud to be his friend.”

Wrecking Ball: the musicians
01.27.12
German store JPC has revealed a list of musicians that participate in nearly all the songs off Wrecking Ball. And it’s a long list.

Some of them are part of the Victorious Gospel Choir of Asbury Park, a gospel group led by Lilly Brown. They performed with Springsteen at the Christmas concerts in 2001 and 2003.

Although incomplete (it’s missing credits on 5 songs) the list confirms the participation of Tom Morello (guitar) in at least 2 songs, Matt Chamberlain (drums), Greg Leisz (pedal steel guitar), Stan Harrison (Asbury Jukes’ sax player) or several members of the Seeger Sessions Band (Curt Ramm -trumpet-, Clark Gayton -trombone-, Art Baron -tuba-, Ed Manion -sax-, Lisa Lowell -vocals-).

From the legendary E Street Band we find Steve Van Zandt, Soozie Tyrell, Patti Scialfa, Max Weinberg, Charlie Giordano and Clarence Clemons, who plays sax on”Wrecking Ball” (he might be featured in more songs, like “Land of Hope and Dreams”, but it is not know yet). So far no information on Roy, Nils and Garry, although they could be in any of the other 5 songs that remain uncredited in the list below.

The other musicians are less known, although some had previously recorded with Springsteen. Michelle Moore, Antoinette Savage, Corinda Carford and Tiffany Andrews are part of the vocal group The Alliance Singers (who sing background vocals on ”Let’s Be Friends” and ”Mary’s Place” from the album The Rising). Jeremy McCoy, Dan Shelly and Mark Romatz are all part of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra in New York City.

These are the musicians credits, song by song, according to JPC:

Shut up and sing!

Some recommended reading:

We Take Care of Our Own – review by Matt Orel
Bruce Springsteen is “liberal.” When he goes off, self-described “conservatives” go wild. Laura Ingraham wrote a book called Shut Up & Sing: How Elites from Hollywood, Politics, and the UN are Subverting America. It was a best seller, even. I don’t personally know anyone who actually read it, but that doesn’t matter: When Bruce speaks out, there’s inevitably a chorus of comments across the country: “Shut Up and Sing!

It’s the performance, stupid! – Steve Van Zandt’s blog at The Huffington Post
Like most people out of work, I’ve been tuning in and out of the traveling comedy show called the Republican Primaries alternately amused, astounded, and appalled, like everybody else.
