John Wesley Harding unveils 1994 video with Bruce Springsteen
For the first time ever, we get to see a video of John Wesley and Bruce Springsteen performing «Wreck on the Highway» in June 1994 at McCabe’s Guitar Shop in Santa Monica.
The song had been previously been published as a bonus track on harding’s CD Awake, back in 1998, and this week will be part of the Record Store Day vinyl Greatest Other People’s Hits.
Omnivore Recordings has published today a video of that great performance, the first time Wes and Bruce played together. A year later Harding hand the rare honor of opening two of Bruce Springsteen’s 1995 solo shows in Berkeley, California, when he was touring to promote The Ghost of Tom Joad.
