Long Branch, New Jersey, US (1949 – present)

Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen (born September 23, 1949 in Long Branch, New Jersey, US) is an American songwriter, singer and guitarist. He has frequently recorded and toured with the E Street Band. Springsteen is most widely known for his brand of heartland rock infused with pop hooks, poetic lyrics, and Americana sentiments centered around his native New Jersey. His eloquence in expressing ordinary, everyday problems has earned him numerous awards, including eighteen Grammy Awards and an Academy Award, along with a notoriously dedicated and devoted global fan base. His most famous albums, Born to Run and Born in the U.S.A., epitomize his penchant for finding grandeur in the struggles of daily life. He has sold over 70 million albums in the U.S. alone.

Springsteen’s lyrics often concern men and women struggling to make ends meet. In this sense he was sometimes compared to Woody Guthrie. He has gradually become identified with progressive politics. Springsteen is also noted for his support of various relief and rebuilding efforts in New Jersey and elsewhere, and for his response to the September 11, 2001 attacks, on which his album The Rising reflects.

Springsteen’s recordings have tended to alternate between commercially accessible rock albums and somber folk-oriented works.

rcknrol : Bruce is so much more than a songwriter.... He writes amazing songs, but he's also an amazing entertainer. His shows are so powerfull and energetic... Yes, Dylan is a great songwriter and some of Bruce's inspiration, but he can't come close to what Bruce is today. Bruce is everything. He is The Boss.

The Ghost of Tom Joad with Morello is scorching - shame that his 90s albums weren't with the E Street band really.
