Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, the Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle Album

In Springsteen’s sophomore effort, The Wild, The Innocent and the E Street Shuffle album, The Boss showed why he was destined for rock and roll greatness. Displaying an absolute Dylanesque flair for resonating lyrics and a love for pure, driving rock and roll, Springsteen packed this album with so much energy, you might expect it to explode all over you. But it doesn’t. It just keeps you listening repeatedly to such gems as “Rosalita,” 4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)" and "Kitty's Back," Springsteen is an unadulterated musical genius and sowed the seeds for future iconic status right here.
