Clarence Clemons - Live in Asbury Park I-II '2002

Tracks list

Live in Asbury Park is a Clarence Clemons and Temple of Soul album that was
recorded live at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey on September
2–3, 2001.

It seems Clarence Clemons has been playing a lesser role with each new Bruce
Springsteen & the E Street Band tour. It could be his faltering health (hip
replacement, detached retina) or the fact that Springsteen is coming up with
songs that don't seem to call for much sax anymore. Either way, Clemons gets
plenty of blowing time leading his own septet. On Live from Asbury Park, he
tackles three rare Springsteen originals; an instrumental version of "Small
Things," the similarly unreleased "Savin' Up," and the rollicking showpiece
"Paradise by the C." On the latter tune, Clemons seems to run out of breath a
bit, and his bandmates don't seem to able to support him very well. This tune
probably should have been left off. Clemons' originals vary between your
average-but-fun bar band boogie ("C.C. Angel") and some moody ballads ("Livin'
Without You"). Seems it was a fun night, watching the famous Clemons at a
relatively intimate venue (it was outside though, not actually inside the Stone
Pony), but the disc leaves you with the impression that fans were hoping for
Springsteen to show up and jam (he did, a different night, and does not make an
appearance on this disc). On a well-produced studio recording perhaps, this band
could really shine.
