The Little Guide to Bruce Springsteen : The Boss, Hardback Book

The Little Guide to Bruce Springsteen : The Boss Hardback

Hardback

Description

Bruce Springsteen arrived on the world's stage in 1973 with two incredible albums in one year, a prolificacy that would define his career for the next half-century.

In his tenure at the top of the rock and roll charts, Springsteen received worldwide adoration for crafting lyrics and music that symbolised all facets of his, and his home nation's, history; songs that enthralled with passion and purpose, stinging political vitriol and the sweetest of melody.

No other American artist captured America's heart, and soul, than Springsteen. Containing Springsteen's most prominent non-lyrical poetry and life philosophies, from his earliest interviews to his most recent statements of truth, fact, and soul-baring, each one spanning the entirety of his musical output with the E-Street Band, his solo soundtracks, iconic live performances and a wealth of TV, magazine, and newspaper conversations. In the early days when Springsteen and the E-Street Band played gigs in small venues, it was Bruce's job (as frontman) to collect the money and pay the rest of the band.

This led them to start calling him 'The Boss', a nickname which has stuck.

Springsteen – the patron saint of the working man, who greatly dislikes bosses – naturally loathes this nickname!
