    .Tunnel of Love was Bruce's first 'grown up' album. Dealing with adult relationships because he was going through his own relationship troubles at that time. It's a fantastic album! A lot of people didn't get it at first because they were too young and couldn't relate. As they got older they 'got it' and found they loved the album.

    Nebraska is a masterpiece. The only album I've enjoyed since he and the band reunited is Magic. Seeger Sessions album is pretty darn cool and the shows were amazing. Bruce was renergized and the way he reworked those old songs and some of his own was genius

I'm only 18, so I didn't live through the Born in the USA hype of the later 80s, but my parents have the albums and I've watched live footage, and really acquainted myself with the older Bruce...I tried listening to his solo career, but I didn't like the lack of E Street. "Lonesome Day" is the only modern (2000-present) Springsteen song I really, truly love...it mixes some of the Seeger Session feel he experimented with, with the original 70's "Born to Run" feel of The Boss's trueness.

    The Rising is my favourite Bruce album that I've listened to so far - Lonesome Day is a great song, but for me Worlds Apart is the best from it. Love that song. I feel, with a bit more listening, Bruce will one day hit my top 5 bands. Just need to get more of his stuff.

    For The Rising itself is my favourite. Indeed The Rising is a very good album. But you surely need to listen to the old albums like Darkness On The Edgoe Of Town, Born To Run, The River and Nebraksa. My Favourite records. But his best for me is Live 1975-'85.
  5. The Live 1975-85 is probably the best live compilation ever done by any artist. Simply awesome. The introduction to The River was the first non-U2 speech that I ever learnt by memory, I still remember it. That song is so great

    I've listened to Nebraska and Born To Run in their entirety, and other stuff but I can't remember what precisely =P the wonders of Spotify I fear lol. I think it's the whole context surrounding The Rising that also holds something special for me - I've been going through a period lately of listening to music c. the new millenium, including All That You Can't Leave Behind, they just all seem to have this sense of uplifting hope and whatnot going on. I know The Rising was written post-9/11 but even so, stuff like The Rising and City of Ruins have that feeling all through them.
  9. Does anyone knows a good Bruce biography book?? Im looking for ages but cant really find a good one....all suggestions are welcome
  10. Good news for ''Boss''- fans:

    Next month the documentary The Promise - Darkness On The Edge Of Town comes out. It will be shown first on the Toronto International Film Festival, on September 14th. It's about the making of the album after the groundbreaking Born To Run. Bruce had loads of pressure back then. It includes new footage. Later on this year a re-release of the 1978 album appears, including rarities and this documentary. (from Nu.nl, dutch news site)

    This makes me very curious. I'd love to see this doc.
