Greatness from GFAP through Nebraska. There is backlash against Born in the USA because it was such a massive cultural phenomenon in the 80s and you couldn't get away from it, but it has a lot of great stuff...and you also can't sleep on Tunnel of Love. But its a steady downward decline from there, with The Rising (and live performances) being an exception.

Springsteen hot take: He is not really as big of a leftist zealot as he portrays, but he intentionally does it to try to remain relevant with the music press/critics, to fit in the artist community, and to soften the backlash/jealousy over the massive wealth he has accumulated (and continues to generate).

Springsteen lukewarm take: The Music Board's hatred of the guy is driven by perceived political views rather than music.


Have to agree with every bit of this.
