Cygnus 2112 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I'm going to give Bruce Springsteen a chance since Segue keeps mentioning him. Where should I start, and does he have any iconic live albums? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I don't know either. Nebraska is pretty cool and I'm intrigued by a live album I heard a cut from a while back, the Seeger Sessions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchetaxe&saw Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I would direct you to Darkness On The Edge Of Town for starters. Live wise, Live 75-85 is the big one. However, Hammersmith Odeon 1975 is spectacular. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I am not sure, as I started with seven albums in one day and bought the rest in about a month. Got hooked on Greetings From Asbury Park and never looked back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I feel bad for those who miss out. He is truly a one of a kind artist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughedatbytime Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The first thing you do with a Springsteen CD is to fill the hole in the middle so that no seepage gets through from the beverage when you put it on top. Or it's a great reason to take up skeet shooting. There's nothing like the satisfaction of blowing that shit to bits. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
