'June 1, 1985, Slane Castle, Dublin, Ireland (Slane is NOT in Dublin, Bruce), our first stadium show ever ... Slane joined a rising number of our other performances to attain 'legendary' status and, despite my distraction, turned out to be a solid show. On the streets of Dublin, it is often mentioned that if you were there, you were there. I was certainly there.'

Bruce Springsteen. The Boss. One of the world's most iconic musicians whose career spanned four decades.
He brought us so many great songs - Dancing In The Dark, The River, Radio Nowhere, Streets of Philadelphia, Darkness on the Edge of Town, Sad Eyes, Secret Garden, Death To My Hometown, Born In The USA, to name a few. He won an Academy Award for the song Streets of Philadelphia. He owns twenty grammys. He's such a freaking overachiever.

Yes, I'm 20-30 years younger than most of this fanbase but this was the music I was raised on.
I literally didn't know of pop until middle school. That's right. My parents hid decades of music from me and I couldn't have had a happier childhood. I was a grouchy old woman by the time I hit middle school, 'NSYC? Turn that boppy crap down. You all should be listening to music with soul.'
As a symptom of this, I can sing to nearly every Classic Rock song on...more

Back in the 70s in very blue collared Cleveland, Ohio I first heard Bruce Springsteen. Darkness on the Edge of Town was the first vinyl LP I owned. I owned plenty of 8-tracks but albums were things you kept recorded to cassettes. Springsteen, although a New Jersey native, was the patron saint of my hometown. With the regularity of Big Ben ringing the hour, every Friday at 5:00 pm WMMS would blast Born to Run with every single one of...more
My husband (also a musician) does not share my enthusiasm for Springsteen’s music (yes, this has caused a few tense moments in our marriage) but admits that he is a great songwriter. When celebrities who are not authors write a memoir they undoubtedly get help from ghost writers so I did some searching and learned that he worked on his book alone for seven years before seeking out a publisher. I was pleased to discover that his songwriting chops crossed over intact to authoring and was engaged...more
And The Boss certainly delivered! Gah, I cannot compliment this book enough. Springsteen writes his autobiography like he writes his music, with an honest voice and in the most beautifully stunning way. He has a way with words. They reach inside you and open you up, heart and soul.

I only had one opportunity to see Bruce Springsteen in concert. It was at the Spectrum in Philadelphia during 'The River' tour. I had been a fan of 'The Boss' thanks in large part due to Ed Sciaky at WMMR. The concert remains one of my all time favorites. The energy! The chemistry between Bruce and the E-Street Band. This was especially evident between Bruce and Clarence 'The Big Man' Clemmons. And the chemistry between Bruce and his fans.
When I saw Bruce had written his memoir it was i...more

I am now, but not because of his music; it's because of his writing- his honesty, his humor, and his work ethic. His battles with depression and mental illness in his family must have been painful for him to admit, but it all rang true to me.
Don't get me wrong-I did have a few issues with him-most especially his reputation as a working man, or a rock and roller that represents the working man-...more
I'm a fan of Bruce Springsteen so I knew I had to read this one. This was wonderful and not just because I'm a fan and not just because I read a lot of autobiographies. This book was well done. It took more than a few years to write, and it shows. He took his time with this project. This felt honest and real. He didn't just show the the bright and shiny moments of his life. He opened up and let the reader in. I loved that. He was quite expressive and had an amazing way with words. I ha...more
Bruce Springsteen thoughtfully tells his story. Along with his personal reflections there is a lot here for future biographers and chroniclers of this period in rock history. He writes of his family (most riveting for me), his bands and how he formed them, the genesis of his songs and albums and about performing.
Most autobiographers tell you their experience as a child, very few attempt to interpret their parents’ experience of the family. Springsteen does, particularly in the case of his mother...more
“On a good day this is how we live. This is love. This is what life is. The possibility of finding root, safety and nurturing in a new season.” ~ Bruce Springsteen
This must-read book is, of course, about music, but it is also all about LIFE.
It's about living a life of your choice and pursuing your dreams.
It's about not giving up.
It's about believing and trusting in LOVE and in family.
It's about overcoming obstacles.
And, more than anything...more

I don’t mean “weird” in any salacious sense - if Springsteen has ever indulged in much deviant behavior he doesn’t disclose it here. No, I mean that in a broader, more meta sense. The fact that Springsteen wrote this specific memoir just seems strange to me.
A big part of that is because Springsteen himself is probably an odd person. For example, his prose alternates between bombastic enthusiasm and matter of factness; when he’s trying to articulate an abstract idea (l...more

Biography
Bruce Springsteen is one of the most well-known American musicians of our time. His songs, famous for lyrics devoted to the struggles of daily life, are often described as «heartland rock». Springsteen has sold over 120 million albums worldwide, including 65 million in the U.S, and earned numerous awards for his work – eighteen Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes, an Academy Award and much more. He is also noted for supporting various charity organizations.
Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen was born on September 23, 1949 in Long Branch, near New Jersey. He decided to become a musician at the age of seven after seeing one of the Elvis Presley’s performances. At 13, he learned to play guitar, and at 16 he was already a frontman of the band known as The Castiles. In late 1960-s he started to perform in clubs in New Jersey as part of the trio Earth. At this time he got his famous nickname «The Boss» because he was on the task of collecting the band's pay and distributing it among his bandmates. Springsteen himself never liked this name. Bruce Springsteen signed his first album contract in 1972. He called upon many of his friends, they formed E Street Band and recorded album Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J. (1973). It featured folk rock-rooted music and intricate lyrics, so Springsteen was compared to Bob Dylan. Record got critical acclaim but no commercial success, as long as the second album The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle (1973).
Next record Born To Run became Springsteen’s last chance to release a commercially successfull album. After 14 month of work spent on it, Born To Run received massive acclaim and made E Street Band popular. But then a legal battle with former manager Mike Appel kept Springsteen out of the studio for over several years, so next album Darkness On The Edge Of Town was released only five years later. It was much different from Springsteen’s previous works – music became more fluent and refined, while lyrics were telling about social and political problems. Next record, double album The River (1980), was made in the same manner and devoted to working-class life. The River was followed by the acoustic album Nebraska (1982) that Springsteen recorded solo, without E Street Band. It is said that U2’s disk The Joshua Tree was inspired by this record.
Following album Born In The U.S.A. (1984) became Bruce Springsteen’s most successfull record to date, selling 15 million copies in the U.S. alone. The title track, which was telling the bitter story about the treatment of Vietnam veterans (based on the real stories of some Springsteen’s friends), is still one of the most controversial songs in America. Springsteen himself turned down several million dollars offered by Chrysler Corporation for using the song in a car commercial. Next album Tunnel Of Love (1987) was far more sedate and less social-themed. This «social» period of career ended for Springsteen after dissolving E Street Band in 1989. In 1992 Bruce Springsteen moved to Los Angeles and released two albums at once – Human Touch and Lucky Town. Both of them were telling about his inner feelings. In 1994 Springsteen received his only Academy Award for the song Streets Of Philadelphia which was used in a movie Philadelphia. Next year Springsteen recorded new album The Ghost Of Tom Joad, inspired by Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Dale Maharidge’s book Journey To Nowhere.
Springsteen reunited with E Street Band in 2000 for a huge tour and new album The Rising (2002). The album, mostly a reflection on the September 11 attacks, was a critical and popular success. Next album, acoustic record Devils & Dust (2005), featured songs written almost ten years earlier. It was followed by folk album We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions (2006). Next disk Magic (2007) was also very successful. At the same time, Springsteen took hands on Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign. Springsteen’s sixteenth studio album Working On A Dream was released in the end of January 2009. In 2010 the singer’s discography was enlarged by wonderful compilation album The Collection 1973-1984. That record included one of the best Bruce’s songs that had been time-honored and deserved the title of rock music classics. There is no doubt that this compilation album turned out to be a great present for the legendary musician’s fans.
