I think the problem I have with early Bruce Springsteen is his vocal style. He was 25 when he recorded this album but he sounds more like a middle aged dad reminiscing about being a young tearaway than someone actually strapping themselves into a suicide machine. That’s not to say this isn’t a good album, but I much prefer the quieter and more reflective tracks like Meeting Across the River than the bombastic numbers.

Favorite Albums of All Time

Stu

(1975)

"Running into the darkness, some hurt bad, some really dying

At night sometimes it seemed you could hear the whole damn city crying..."

Any real Springsteen fan will tell you that this is their favorite album of his (as opposed to Born in the USA!) This is the album that landed Bruce on the cover of Newsweek and Time the same week. Epic, dramatic, and rocking!
