Summary:
There's only one Boss; his story is revealed here.
Bruce
Springsteen
is stadium-filling rock star, but he is also more nuanced than that. He makes conventional-and-proud-of-it rock music aimed at the American working class. A lavishly illustrated examination of his life and music. A tribute to
Springsteen
's body of work, from the rock anthem Born to Run to his sepia-toned analysis of working-class misery, The River. There's
Springsteen
's gnarly, Bonnie and Clyde-style tableaux Atlantic City, as well as his debunking of guys' yearnings for youthful Glory Days.
Bruce
Springsteen
(born in 1949) is an American musician, singer and songwriter. He is best known for his work with his E Street Band. Nicknamed "The Boss", he is widely known for his brand of poetic lyrics, Americana, working class and sentiments centered on his native New Jersey, his distinctive voice and his lengthy and energetic stage performances, with concerts from the 1970s to the present decade running over three hours in length.
Springsteen
's recordings have included both commercially accessible rock albums and more somber folk-oriented
works
. His most successful studio albums, Born to Run (1975) and Born in the U.S.A. (1984), showcase a talent for finding grandeur in the struggles of daily American life.
