The Boss is the Bo$$


Bruce Springsteen gets paid

I lost interest after Darkness but, good for Bruce.

Cool story artemus.

The early albums aren't the best in SQ, but after weeding a few copies of Darkness, I've got a "stamper" level that's a great demo LP. Easy cheap bin find.

Candy's Room, Streets of Fire, Darkness on the Edge of Town at  full throttle on SOTA is an experience.

 

tablejockey, that Springsteen record is my favorite of all of his recordings, not that it matters to anyone but me.  But still.  I find it a magnificent achievement.

I was not a Bruce Springsteen fan, until 2014! My neighbor invited me to go see Springsteen on the "High Hopes" tour. The album, and live show, featured Tom Morello.

Seeing that Springsteen show completely changed my opinion of "The Boss". Springsteen's walk-off closer of the cover of "Dream Baby Dream" was one of the top highlights of my live music history.

Saw him twice on the 'Born To Run' tour and once on the 'Darkness' tour, and that was it - awesome, 4-hour performances, but I got what I needed. I don't think I've ever owned any of his albums, though. Got a lot of respect for him, just not my style that much. Good for him for selling his catalogue like that. David Bowie did that many years ago, too... I've got no problem with artists earning as much as they want.
