TODAY'S CD PICK: BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - LIVE IN DUBLINThis Dublin stop, taped at the tail end of a seven-month tour, finds Bruce and the band going at the same material with a raw gusto that connects American traditions: mountain string bands, whorehouse Dixieland jazz, juke-joint rockabilly, Western swing and E Street soul.
