Essential Springsteen

	Devils & Dust [CD + DVD] by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £7.18 / Used from: £1.06 Criminally under-rated, this album contains his most sublime songwriting skills to date. Heartbreakingly moving, will he ever perform a song as elegiac and understated as Silver Palomino?
	The Rising by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.98 For me, the career highlight, until the follow-up came along (See above). Rocking, soulful, moving reunion with the E-Street. "Mary's Place" is the jewel in the crown of this modern classic!
	Tunnel of Love by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.81 Springsteen's Blood On The Tracks? The soul searching doesn't always reveal a pretty picture on this suite of mostly bitter, brilliant love songs.
	Born To Run: 30th Anniversary Edition [2 DVD + 1 CD] by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £16.98 His 70s masterpiece. A celebration of escape for the ordinary folk of Springsteen's songs.
	The Ghost of Tom Joad by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.59 Almost forgotten in the Springsteen catalogue. These sensitive storys of people in poverty and desperation deserve to be better known. Musically of a piece with then-hit Streets of Philadelphia.
	We Shall Overcome - The Seeger Sessions / American Land Edition [CD+DVD] by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £13.87 / Used from: £12.00 Joyous album of folk covers. Trombones, fiddles and banjos (MUCH better than it sounds!) intertwine in wonderfully rag-tag fashion!
	Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.73 Muscular singing, intense backing from the E-Streeters.
	The River (2CD) by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £6.98 / Used from: £4.49 First disc rocks along at 100mph, second contains more thoughtful side to Springsteen (great ballad "Drive All Night").
	Born in the U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.99 A look past the 80s pomp of the title tune, reveals a consistently excellent rock record.
	Live/1975-85 by Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band Buy new: £17.98 / Used from: £9.15 Barnstorming 70s performances are the real highlights here ("Growin' Up"!).
