Learning to love Springsteen

I can't stand his later stuff, but the early albums are superb:

The River

Greetings From Ashbury Park

The Wild, The Innocent And The E Street Shuffle

Darkness On The Edge of Town

Nabraska

After those he went down hill (though anything live is pretty good) IMO.

Nebraska should have a health warning though - it steals Leonard Cohen's crown for Music To Commit Suicide To .... ;-)

some one gave me a compilation back in the day with 'Atlantic City'. On the back of that, I've bought several Bruce albums and downloaded several more. On this computer alone, I've got 8 Springsteen albums. I can't find anything else that grabs me. I quite like Highway Patrolman as a song, but prefer the cover versions of it that I've heard.

I think the biggest problem is, and I was talking about this on another site last week, that the saxophone is an instrument I find really really aggravating. You know the cliche about not liking the bagpipes? I pretty much hate 99% of songs with a saxophone on. It pisses all over the record for me.

Sorry, sidetracked. anyway, Atlantic City is a fine fine song though.
