Free Music Review: The Boss still rules
Hit: 4 Stars
Bruce lost me as a fan with the release of CD "Human Touch" and the song "57 Channels" but I still enjoyed his old stuff.
I took a chance on this CD after hearing good things and it didn't disappoint.
Good from start to finish and like the Boss' old stuff.
"Girls in Their Summer Clothes" is a great summer song.
One of the memorable CD's from 2007 for me.
Free Music Review: I love Bruce as much as anybody, but...
Hit: 1 Stars
... I can't take all these rave reviews. This is the same "go thru the motions" Bruce songwriting that he's been doing for years. Bruce is a legend and is great, but if you think this album has anything new, I totally disagree. It's the same ole 3-4 chord, "oh yeah baby", rockin' bruce as always. pass. dylan had a lot of dull years too, don't cry.Free Music Review: Magic - Damn Right
Hit: 5 Stars
I can say that some of the songs on this cd do not really get me going, but as a lifelong Springsteen fan, my copy sounds perfect and I say him live during this tour and it was also my first concert ever and my only regret was not being able to go to 3 or 4 concerts in a row . Freaking incredible.
Even if you dont love a song or two on this album , they all still have that special something that makes my 3year old daughter just stand up and jam out
Free Music Review: Amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
This has some incredible stuff on it, my favorite being "Long Walk Home," but throughout the record you keep getting surprised by all the styles he embraces, the quality of the songs, singing and production. The energy level in general is through the roof.
This is probably his most original and experimental record. Rather than go for the classic sound of Roy Bittans piano based songs like his older material, he tries a lot of styles, and you can hear a little Eleanor Rigby (Your Own Worst Enemy), Beach Boys, (Girls in Their Summer Dress), classic Springsteen (I'll Work For Your Love), Hick Springsteen (The bonus track, written for a close friends funeral), etc.
This is a very eclectic album, and his best in at least 25 years, maybe his best since the 70's. Born in the USA seemed a bit commercial, The River didn't fit together as seemlesly as this one. It has a new sound and a raw energy that makes it a modern classic, without necessarily being classic rock. But he seems to have actually grown as a songwriter and singer, which is rare for a rock musician of his age.
This album is not a tired performer and band running on fumes or just reliving past glory. He's creating new ones. I must have listened to it 25 times since getting it a week ago. It's not "Jungleland," or "Thunder Road" but it fits into it's own category. And as others have mentioned, it may very well be the best album of 2007.

Buy this cd, then see bruce live."Gyspy biker, long walk home and girls in their summer colthes" is so much better live than the studio recordings.
