'Human Touch' and 'Lucky Town' each have their moments, but imo would've made a killer single album. Of course 'Tracks' is a whole 'nother story...

"Tracks"..well there are no words....
But my fondness for the oldie Bruce will never go away

And Bucksterly..

As a teacher, do you not understand the word no with all its synonyms?? I will choose to ignore how you have defaced/devalued the sweet honey bee by placing it on Biliary's shoulder.

i started with nebraska...then a friend burned copies of darkness, the river and born to run for me...born to run and darkness took no work to get into...fabulous albums...the river just never caught on.

nebraska, on the other hand...well, that is nothing short of otherworldly.

not much else out of nebraska is worth the price of admission, however...just the album.

Bought "Greetings for Asbury Park" a month ago and am digesting it
just wondering how you springsteen nuts think this album compares

I'm not a Springsteen nut, in any way, shape or form, but at one time I owned all his material up through Tunnel of Love and Live 75-85.

I think the best Springsteen album ever was the boot, Fire on the Fingertips. My second favorite and the only other one that I can listen all the through without skipping songs is Greetings. Unlike Gazza, my favorite songs on the album are "Mary Queen of Arkansas," and the song immediately following, "Does This Bus..."

Through overplaying, Classic rock radio has ruined Born to Run, Born in the USA, the River, and, to some extent Darkness, in my opinion. I do like 10th Avenue Freezeout and Jungleland from the first, and a lot of Darkness is okay. I never liked Nebraska to begin with. On Live 75-85, the extended version of Growing Up and the Darlington County / Working on the Highway medley are very listenable.

I can't stand Tunnel of Love, even though that is the only tour that I saw Springsteen in concert on. I don't know enough about his post "Live 75-85" work to comment on, but nothing has really caught my ear.

First Bruce bootleg I ever heard..and most of the song titles were wrong! All the songs are now on 'Tracks' now, though.
