Recording

The whole show is available on the official DVD release Live In Barcelona. The solo piano "Spirit In The Night" from this show (complete with Bruce messing up the lyrics) was officially released as a bonus track on the European Lonesome Day CD single issued later that year. Two more audio recordings ("She's The One" and "Born To Run") were officially released on the U.S.-only promotional CD sampler Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Live PBS Exclusive in late 2005.

Main set up to "Dancing In The Dark" was broadcast live on VH1 to most of Europe. Some of the rest of the show was also broadcast on a radio interview show.
