Thank you, Johnny. I wish you had made it bigger than you did. But for those who saw you live, we will never forget.

How much more could Steve and Bruce of done??? Johnny was good live but his albums just didn't cut the mustard at the time they were released... look at all the anthems 77, 78 era had from other bands and musicians had. Was some of the most competitive years in music history... Johnny was NO failure!!!

Johnny made the decision to put his trust in Willie Rush and that trash it up dance crap after the critically acclaimed album Hearts of Stone produced by Miami Steve. Complete failure. Candidly, Johnny owes all his success and little notoriety he has to Miami Steve’s writing and arrangements as well as the several songs Bruce gifted him. Yes, Johnny is a good front man/stage presence but his song writing skills were poor. In Stephen’s book he mentions that the Jukes still owe him about $250k in unpaid management fees-I assume he was referencing Johnny.

I worked this concert as a greeter and met Southside as he was going on stage. Thought I would have some fun with him and asked for his ID with a smile on my face of course and his response to me was singing the phrase "I don't want to go home" I remember laughing about it. A great memory. Glad I found this video..

Incredible story. He was an A-Lister but he never made it to the top of the Billboard. We all know his place was up there. His band, his songwriters, his producers were the biggest East Coast talents at the time and he had all of the stuff the others only dreamt of. He released some of the best albums at that time in my opinion.

I was there……MTV was shooting it. At some point there was a technical glitch. Southside and Co stepped forward and did an acapella song. Magic.

I had friends that visited relatives at the Jersey Shore in the mid '70's. They came back with Southside Johnny and Bruce Springsteen records.

South and the Jukes are the greatest acts to have never been mainstream. Long live The South

Partied to this all through the years especially new years!!

A band that reminds us - life is for living.

Still frgn great! In 2024! Do y'all ever wonder who will carry on this music???!!!

The best. Miami Steve and Southside Johnny❤

Oh god, I was there. I’m old!

It's magic. Thank you Stevie and Johnny!

Saw Southside last Friday and believe me he can still do it.

Saw Southside about 8 yrs ago at a tiki bar right smack on the beach in Jersey. I was in heaven.

I just love the entire family 💯 and his Nephew Karl Lyon who deserves a shout-out!

what a great song - Springsteen, Van Zandt and Southside at their best

Love the Jukes. Such a good-time party band.

Steve Van Zandt on stage with Johnny, Kevin Kavanaugh, George Ruiz, Bobby Bandiera. What a fantastic version of the Jukes this was.

I was so excited to see these guys live twice and different venues in the UK on their first ever European shows. They were supporting Graham Parker & The Rumour and were absolutely stunning and put in a brilliant performance. This must have been around 1977 and these shows still stand out as amongst my favourites.

Beyond Fabulous! This is music at it's rock 'n rollin' BEST!!!!

Never knew the soprano’s man wrote this - it’s a total classic and never ever get tired of hearing it👌

Steve (Little Stevie) Van Zandt, who not only wrote it but had arranged it.

The Philly Captain vlog brought me here! Great song I never heard before 2023! Love it now 👍🏻😎

Wow great memories you 2 are great thank you

A great voice

I wish Southside Johnny would come to Florida I'd love to see him

spent most of my life in irvington,west orange NJ growing up as a teenager I love bruce and bonjovi by southside was and still my favorite saw him a dozen times in NJ

I saw them in 1979 Chicago Jam

Saw them winter 1980-1981at Brockport University upstate NY. Best concert ever. The Auditotilrum floor was shaking up and down! Amazing!

Went to see them perform on New Year’s Eve a couple of times. Great fun, great memories.

Incredible 🙌🏽🖤

As good as it gets

Saw them backing Graham Parker & the Rumour at the Usher Hall, Edinburgh, in 1976 and they blew me away! Seen SJ&tAJ several times since and they never fail to be phenomenal.

He played alot of smaller venues and the places were always packed.

Boy wish I had seen them!

I loved this band since i was 18, no one in Montana had ever heard of them. Ha ha...

Saw them on the ferry in Glasgow magic ,,,,,

I saw Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes in Oct 1980. Freaking great horn section and fantastic show.

Great song done brilliantly! As fine as the original by The Left Banke and then the 4 Tops, this is my favorite.

Southside and Miami Steve!! be still me heart.....

My jersey soul

when a band has a trombone, a saxophone and a trumpet, well then you know to be blown away🤘🤘🤘

Saw them at Knebworth in 78, brilliant

Such a great song!

Works fine in speed 1.5 too🤘🤘🤘

Bad Bob and that pink shirt👍

Saludos a todos los fans de S. J. . Somos los mejores. We are the best fans. S. J. is fantastic.

Geetings from Beckenham inLondon UK!

One of those great bands that where all about the live act. A little like The Quireboys (The London Quireboys) or Canada's Redseed. Not a lot of radio hits or number one hit songs but all great live acts.

Due grandi voci! 😅😅😍😍🤩🤩😘😘💘♥️💔💯💯

Great version of this terrific song!!

I saw them in Aberdeen in the late 70s. I think they may have been supporting Graham Parker and The Rumour.

I know that it's getting late But I don't want to go home I am in no hurry baby time can wait I don't want to go home Listen to the man sing his song I don't want to go home I don't mind baby to stay alnight long Cause I don't want to go home Listen baby I know we had to try To reach up and touch the sky baby What ever happened to you and I That I don't want to go home Look at all the people staying Saying I don't want to go home In the night I don't want to go home I know the words to the song I feel I don't want to go home I know it's talking about the way I feel I don't want to go home Listen baby I know we had to try To reach up and touch the sky baby What ever happened to you and I That I don't want to go home I want to hear people laughing And having a good time I want to know why she told me she had to go Why did she leave me lonely I know it's time to go But I don't want to go home You don't play the blues soft and low Cause I don't want to go home Listen baby I know we had to try To reach up and touch the sky baby What ever happened to you and I That I don't want to go home

been to the capital theatre to see southside, bad co ,linda ronstadt weird place during the day they showed xxx movies and once a week they had burlesk shows

Classic

Where are the other videos from this performance? :/ Went missing.

The raw version of Bruce. If only he had the looks, he would have been big. I saw/heard Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes in a small venue in Utrecht, the Netherlands and they raised the roof. The horn section did most of the work.
