First aired on VH1 on April 23, 2005, Bruce Springsteen's critically acclaimed historic solo VH1 Storytellers concert is nearly two hours long and features a total of 8 complete Springsteen songs including "Devils & Dust" and "Jesus Was An Only Son" from his recent acclaimed album Devils & Dust. VH1 Storytellers also contains Springsteen's detailed comments, introductions and anecdotes on the songs origins, as well as a previously unseen question and answer between the musician and his fans.
VH1 Storytellers features Springsteen accompanying himself on piano, guitar, and harmonica. Patti Scialfa joins him on vocals for Brilliant Disguise. Taped at Two River Theater in Red Bank, NJ on April 4, the performance earned critical nods. AP said, "Over the course of the evening, Springsteen was funny, glib, self-depreciating, chatty, and occasionally revealing...The stage patter gave way to some magnificent musical moments."
The Newark Star-Ledger said, "a once-in-a-lifetime opporunity to gain a deeper understanding of his songs, and hear some fine acoustic versions of them in the process..a must-see."
