Since a few of you enjoyed my first Jersey Music post about that Jersey boy Bruce Springsteen and most people were more familiar with his later more mainstream work, I thought I'd share one of his more popular concert songs - which was included on his third album - Born to Run.
Jungleland
This is a poetic tale of life on the streets of New Jersey.
Springsteen and the E Street Band performed this live for over a year before they recorded it. It developed into a longer song with a grand sax solo when it was finally released.
This features the piano of Roy Bittan. He joined The E Street Band for Born To Run after playing in orchestra pits on Broadway.
This was a highlight of Springsteen's 1999 reunion tour with The E Street Band. The tour went very well, and the band continued to play and record together.
Here is the song performed live in NYC in 2001 and featuring the sax solo of the "Big Man" Clarence Clemons
And the lyrics
The rangers had a homecoming in Harlem late last night
And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine over the Jersey state line
Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants
Together they take a stab at romance and disappear down Flamingo Lane
Well the Maximum Lawman run down Flamingo chasing the Rat and the barefoot girl
And the kids round here look just like shadows always quiet, holding hands
From the churches to the jails tonight all is silence in the world
As we take our stand down in Jungleland
The midnight gang's assembled and picked a rendezvous for the night
They'll meet 'neath that giant Exxon sign that brings this fair city light
Man there's an opera out on the Turnpike
There's a ballet being fought out in the alley
Until the local cops, Cherry Tops, rips this holy night
The street's alive as secret debts are paid
Contacts made, they vanished unseen
Kids flash guitars just like switch-blades hustling for the record machine
The hungry and the hunted explode into rock'n'roll bands
That face off against each other out in the street down in Jungleland
In the parking lot the visionaries dress in the latest rage
Inside the backstreet girls are dancing to the records that the D.J. plays
Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners
Desperate as the night moves on, just a look and a whisper, and they're gone
Beneath the city two hearts beat
Soul engines running through a night so tender in a bedroom locked
In whispers of soft refusal and then surrender in the tunnels uptown
The Rat's own dream guns him down as shots echo down them hallways in the night
No one watches when the ambulance pulls away
Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light
Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz
Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here
Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
Tonight in Jungleland

Our goal is to make the process of buying, selling, or owning a home efficient, enjoyable and rewarding for you. See what our clients have said about our real estate services...
Dear Jim & Jean-Marie, Thank you ever so much for your patience and perservering in spite of formidable odds (the NJ Surrogate Court)! And yes, the buyers look happy in the 2 photos that you sent us - almost as happy as we look! Again - thank you for all of your help, and for keeping us more or less sane thru this process.
Nancy & Brian Johnson - 12 Brentwood Dr, Verona
Being a first-time buyer is always a nerve racking experience, fortunately for my fiance' and I we found Jean-Marie and the process was a breeze. Not only did she find us the perfect first home which is everything we had wanted, but she made the transaction smooth and effortless. She always had a handle on the transaction and had us ready for closing in three weeks. Now I always recommend her expertise to anyone who is looking for a great realtor."
Monika, North Caldwell
"Recently, I purchased a condo in Montclair and Jean-Marie was awesome! Being a first-time home buyer, I wasn't sure what to expect but she was there every step of the way, guiding me through the process. Our communication was very open and honest which made finding that perfect home quite easy. She knew what I was looking for and within 2.5 weeks, I put in an offer. A month later, I moved in!! If the time comes when I'll be looking for another home, I'd love to work with Jean-Marie again!"
Jeanine, Montclair
Jim,
We just wanted to thank you for all of your guidance (and patience). Because of you the immensely daunting undertaking of purchasing our first home was enjoyable and gratifying. We will be recommending you in the future. Thanks again.
Nicole & Don - Little Falls
Dear Jim,
I just wanted to say "thank you" for all your hard work in bringing Tulip Crescent to closing. I enjoyed working with you and hope to have the opportunity to do it again.
Mary Tetzloff, Sales Associate - Montclair Realty
Thanks for the job you did selling my house in 1 week! You were right about the pricing netting me $100,000 more than if I sold it on my own like I wanted to. I'll gladly refer you to my friends and family.
John Malenich
Thank you for helping us buy our 2 family home. We are very happy.
Juan & Yuderki Estrella
Jim, How can we thank you enough for your devoted and dedicated work? Thank you so much for over extending yourself and putting 110% effort towards selling our condo! We will refer you to all our friends and families if they ever decide to move. Thank you!
