Bruce Springsteen/ The River

This Sunday morning I listened to this album. It is a treasure. All Springsteen is good but the for me from Born to Run through Nebraska was the high period. This double album was a number 1 album in 1980.

The River, the title song, is a classic. Hearing the opening chords of the harmonica in concert is a mesmerizing experience.

Point Blank and Drive All Night are two songs by Springsteen that are both haunting but unforgettable.

Hungry Heart, Fade Away, Cadillac Ranch, The Ties that Bind, Independence Day, Sherry Darling all these songs are songs we know and love.

No one is greater than Springsteen. This album is one of the reasons why.
