Bruce of the ’70s

About Me

Ok, so I guess I have to say this right from the start, I'm not Bruce Springsteen, I'm just a fan that loves his early work.
This myspace was made to give everyone a chance to hear the Bruce Springsteen of the '70s. For those of us who love the the majestic lyrics, outsized characters and long, multi-part musical compositions of his early years. And for the young fans who have never dove into the greatness that was '70s Bruce. Bruce Springsteen of the '80s, '90s and new millenium are great too, because they are. But everyone's got a chance to hear that stuff, a lot of the younger kids have never dove into this. I'm just giving them a chance.
Some albums to look at are:
"Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J."
"The Wild, the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle"
"Born to Run"
"Darkness of the Edge of Town"
"Hammersmith Odeon London '75"
"Tracks"

And don't forget to spread the word about Bruce of the 70s!
