    Fans will likely find Live In New York City's porridge not too epic and not too stingy, the balance of newer material, obvious classics, and obscure trifles just right. [13 Apr 2001, p.73]

    Deeper Bruce fans will go ga-ga over the dearth of hits on this collection and twists like "Born in the U.S.A." getting a Nebraska-esque treatment and a great version of "Jungleland." Everyone else will simply love it.

    Despite some high points, this is hardly the definitive live Springsteen album. [May/June 2001, p.116]

    Man, this guy just can do no wrong. Great album, excellent sampling of songs and the E-Street Band sounds great as always. I enjoy his solo work but when he gets together with the E Streeters it becomes something magical.… Expand

    I worship Bruce Springsteen, but the E-street band is overrated and the old songs should be left alone. However , 41 shots is great !
