The wild, the innocent & the E street shuffle, great album. Everything after that went downhill. For me anyway. One good album for such a long career makes real musicians like Bowie and Zappa look like geniuses.
In college me and my friends used to chide Springsteen so much. I will admit I’ve seen him 3 times in concert but that was for the experience.
His music is ok. Some very good. But I don’t find him to be the pinnacle of any genre. I feel like I'm going to get a rupture down there when I hear him "sing".
But good on him for the $500 million score. And Dylan was "only" $300 million?! There’s a sucker born every minute.
Good for Bruce. Get the money while you can.
I’ll take Born To Run over just about any other rock album that came out in 1975. And the same for Darkness. I still have my original copy of Darkness and the SQ is fantastic. It hasn’t lost its magic.
