Bruce Springsteen with the Seeger Sessions Band on BBC iPlayer Today only

Bruce Springsteen makes a departure from his rock 'n' roll superstar persona, singing the songs made famous by Pete Seeger in the 1950s. Backed by a hootenanny-style 18-piece ensemble including horns, fiddles and accordion, he performs songs from his album We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions.

Available until: 1:29am Tuesday 2nd March 2010

This is actually a repeat so if you missed last time it was on now's your chance to see it again.

    Bruce is always fantastic, probably the best performer I’ve seen.

    Been to see The Boss a few times at Sheffield, Wembley Arena & Stadium, and Milton Keynes. Milton Keynes was ace, the acoustics were fantastic!

    I didn't watch it last night as I ended up watching Clint Eastwood instead.

    I love the old guy in the film (I think he's supposed to be an undertaker) who keeps calling Clint's character Joe. The film was A Fistful of Dollars.

    I did watch a little of the Bruce Springsteen concert yester day afternoon though but if kept buffering. It was quite good from what I saw all the same and appeared to be quite a small venue compared to where he normally plays.

    Kept buffering when I tried to watch so I downloaded it, can watch offline then as many times as you like for 7 days. Hope to get time to watch the rest tonight, looked really good the bit I did see.
