Description

Springsteen's debut album, Greetings From Asbury Park, was followed in very short order by this one, and in it you can clearly discern the rumblings of a superstar in the making. The late Clarence Clemons blows with a vengeance on the rockers "Rosalita" and "Kitty's Back"; other highlights include the operatic "Incident on 57th Street," "4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)," and "The E Street Shuffle." "The songs are longer, more ambitious and more romantic; and yet, wonderfully, they lose little of Greetings' rollicking rush…. Like Greetings, the new album is about the streets of New York and the tacky Jersey Shore, but the lyrics are no longer merely zany cut-ups. They're striking amalgams of romance and gritty realism…. The best of his new songs dart and swoop from tempo to tempo and from genre to genre, from hell-bent-for-leather rock to luscious schmaltz."—Rolling Stone "The best realization of Springsteen's poetic vision, which soon enough would be tarnished by disillusionment…. One of the greatest albums in the history of rock & roll."—All Music Guide
