Our Review

By the end of the opening song and title track on Springsteen's first solo acoustic album, Nebraska, we're blown way past glowing images of "broken heroes on a last-chance power drive." The protagonists here are dark, as is the mood; "Nebraska" attempts to explain serial killer Charles Starkweather's rampage from the first-person perspective:"I guess there's just a meanness in this world." Recorded on a four-track machine in Springsteen's kitchen, there are hints here of old country songs and the even older Irish ballads that presaged them. Bruce knows how to set a lyric like the class-conscious "Mansion on the Hill" in a lovely melody that's like something from the Chieftains' dreams. Nebraska is at once a startling addition to the rock and folk traditions, and an affirmation of them. Just ask Johnny Cash, who cut his own versions of "Johnny 99" and "Highway Patrolman."

Customer Reviews

a masterpiece of an album (5 stars)
the perfect album to sit and listen to in the dark and chainsmoke to and let your mind wander.this is a dreary dark album and mostly an undiscovered gem in the bosses catalog.you feel like your in a movie when you hear it.its his finest work.

All-time classic (5 stars)
This is the only Springsteen album I own, and the only one I could want. This is America. This is firmly entrenched in the canon of great American art. Everyone from film-makers to poets have been inspired by the stories found here. Recorded in a motel room one night on a 4-track. Raw and real and timeless. If you think you're a fan of American music, of any ilk, but you don't own this record, get with it. Fast.

The Best Songwriting of Springsteen's Life (5 stars)
Each song is a vignette. Each story is so real you can taste it. A set of earbuds or headphones are the perfect venue for this intimate album. This set of songs would make BITUSA possible and would splinter his professional career into the "Band" and "Bruce" albums -each with remarkably different results. This is Reagan's America and a rebuff t the myths of conservatism. "The 1950s were better." - ask Carol
