No Nukes: The Muse Concerts For a Non-Nuclear Future was a 1979

John Hall
were the key organizers of the event and guiding forces behind the album.

This was the first official appearance of

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's live act on record, and their "Detroit Medley", a staple of the encores of their regular shows, achieved considerable album-oriented rock airplay. In 2021, Springsteen officially released a compilation of songs he performed in his sets from the shows as the live album The Legendary 1979 No Nukes Concerts
.

Otherwise the album did not get much radio attention, as many of the artists held back their best-known material from appearing on it or emphasized collaborative performances. The album was certified a

in October 1997.

The No Nukes film was also released in May 1980 from this event, although it contained somewhat varying contents from this album.
