“Military Night"– Original Master Series 
U.S. Military Academy, Eisenhower Hall, West Point, NY 
May 27, 1976 

Cassette>CDR>Roxio>flac 

Here is the latest in the ‘Original Master Series” made possible by Mr Anonymous. 2 master tape sources were used for this project, so Mr Anonymous had some help that night. Born To Run is not complete with an obvious edit toward the last minute or so using the second tape source as filler. Jungleland has a very slight cut in. Detroit Medley uses the second source to fill in the end. Overall, the show is very enjoyable and worth having. Thanks goes out to Lawrence Kirsch for his wonderful book FOR YOU, which came in handy for the artwork. Specifically Michael Butkus took the photos, so he gets a BIG THANK YOU! 

Fanatic Records in association with Mr Anonymous is proud to share this original master recording with Bruce Springsteen worldwide!

Notes from BruceBase: 
Audience tape. A fan remembers "Us commoners had to sit in the last five or six rows as the cadets, decked out in dress whites, had all of the rest of the theater. The sound was amazing. The big crescendos of Growin' Up seemed to move through us from left to right. I mentioned that to Bruce at the Stone Pony before Southside's 05/30/76 radio broadcast and he said that Eisenhower Hall was supposed to be one of the best acoustic theaters in the country. I believe it."
