Review

Entertainment Weekly (11/21/97, p.137) - "...a notch above the charity-CD pack, primarily because of surprises like Ministry's reverant, tie-dyed cover of the Grateful Dead' `Friend Of The Devil.'" - Rating: B+

Title Note

Also available on 2 LPs through ADA.

THE BRIDGE SCHOOL ALBUM collects live performances from the annual Bridge School Benefits sponsored by Neil and Pegi Young recorded between 1986 and 1996. The Bridge School specializes in teaching communication skill to non-oral youngsters and each concert's proceeds benefit this unique and highly successful school for disabled children.

Engineers include: John Hausmann.

Recorded at Shoreline Amphitheater, Mountain View, California between 1986 and 1996; Oakland Coliseum, Oakland, California in 1988.

All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology.

THE BRIDGE SCHOOL CONCERTS collects live performances from charity concerts organized by Neil Young to benefit The Bridge School, which assists children with severe speech and physical impairments in learning to communicate. Recorded over a 10-year span (1986-1996), the album features a wide and impressive assortment of superstars performing their hits for the cause. The instrumental arrangements are as varied as the roster, from Beck's solo "It's All In Your Mind" to The Pretenders' full string section treatment of "Sense Of Purpose."

Young himself gives a solid, touching rendition of "I Am A Child," showing up elsewhere to perform "Alison" with Elvis Costello and "Believe" with Nils Lofgren. Solo performances include Tom Petty's "Shadow Of A Doubt (A Complex Kid)" and Tracy Chapman's "All That You Have Is Your Soul." Quite a few covers show up, and each is an inspired choice: Nancy and Ann Wilson earnestly belt out "The Battle Of Evermore," while Don Henley and friends sing The Beatles' "Yes It Is," but it is Ministry's unsettlingly straightforward acoustic take of "Friend Of The Devil" which provides the album's most uncharacteristic moment.
