Glory Days: Springsteen's Greatest Albums: Narrowing Down The Best from The Boss

by Peter Chianca, Rocco Coviello (Photographer)

Over 45 years, Bruce Springsteen has released 19 studio albums, almost all of them ambitious and socially relevant. But by process of elimination, one of them has to be “the best” – and veteran newspaper columnist and Bruce blogger Peter Chianca has taken on the task of determining which one. In this expanded and updated edition, the author analyzes 10 of Springsteen’s most enduring albums – including one or two that may surprise you – and then crowns one of them his finest work. NEW TO THIS EDITION: A chapter analyzing Springsteen’s first two albums, and collected for the first time, six of the most popular Springsteen posts and essays from the Blogness on the Edge of Town blog from 2013-2019.

Short and quick. I always love reading opinions on music, especially on Springsteen. Would love to see an expanded version of this, or more by Mr. Chianca.
