Is what I thought this morning when I hopped in my car and sped off to work this morning hearing an old man talking about paying tribute to Bruce and reading glory day's lyrics in a somber fasion giving me the impression he had died. Then he quit reading and said something about how much Bruce did for the common man, etc then BBC news came on. So I flipped the station and they were playing Born in the USA it ended and the DJ said and that concludes this mornings tribute to Bruce Springsteen then a commercial comes on so I flip through some stations and another Springsteen song is just ending, but this time the DJ say "Wishing You a Happy Birthday Bruce." Man I can see how 'War of the Worlds' got out of hand now.

OK! .......Exactly what did he do for the "common man" besides make records that sold in the millions and made him a billionaire? Was he another Mother Theresa for Christs sake?............Uncle Rich

Can you not just wish the guy a Happy Birthday and move on, I myself didn't say he did alot for the common man thats what the radio announcer said. I will say that his music does show he has a connection with our working class heroes, and you know it does take time and energy to write, produce and perform music.

Your taking something personal that wasnt directed at you at all. My comments were directed at the announcer. And I could care less about his B-Day. Hes just another rich guy intent on getting richer Manlicon. And the entertainment industry is probably the greediest and irresponsable of the corporations you often write about.

Writing lyics isnt a connection with anything. And they write,produce, and perform music for one reason only. To make money!

Men walkin' long the railroad tracks
Goin' someplace there's no going back
Highway patrol choppers comin' up over the ridge

Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
Shelter line stretchin' round the corner
Welcome to the new world order
Families sleepin' in their cars in the Southwest
No home no job no peace no rest

The highway is alive tonight
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
Searchin' for the ghost of Tom Joad

He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
Preacher lights up a butt and takes a drag
Waitin for when the last shall be first and the first
shall be last
In a cardboard box 'neath the underpass
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
You got a hole in your belly and a gun in your hand
Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
Bathin' in the city aqueduct

The highway is alive tonight
Where it's headed everybody knows
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joad

Now Tom said "Mom wherever there's a Rich46yo/dg806
beatin' a guy
Wherever a newborn baby cries
Where there's a fight 'gainst the blood and hatred
in the air
Look for me Mom I'll be there
Wherever there's somebody fightin'for a
place to stand
Or decent job or a helpin' hand
Wherever somebody's strugglin' to be free
Look in their eyes Mom you'll see me."

Well the highway is alive tonight
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
I'm sittin down here in the campgire light
With the ghost of old Tom Joad

I like Fortunate Son, but that is a Fogerty song. Did you know Bruce wrote Blinded by the Light? Saw him do a version of it unplugged and he said that he wrote that song but Manfred Mann ended up singing it.

If sense were common, everyone would have it.

GRAMMY AWARDS: 12
ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE: 1999 "When I was 9 I couldn't imagine anyone not wanting to be Elvis Presley." - Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen was born on September 23, 1949, in New Jersey. By singing about working class life and American heartache and touring endlessly, Bruce has become one of the most respected and successful musicians in the world. Bruce grew up in a working-class family in New Jersey. Bruce fell in love with the rock and roll sound, but also found out that his father was not crazy about his rock ambitions. Much of Bruce's early work reflects his conflicts with his father, but most especially his working-class roots. After not finding much success after high school in New York City, Bruce played with a string of bands in the New Jersey area, including the Castiles, the Togues, Dr. Soom, and the Sonic Boom.

Eventually Bruce hooked up with a poplar club band called the E-Street Band (Clarence Clemons, Steve Van Zandt, Danny Federici, Roy Bittan, Gary Tallent, and Max Weinberg) and signed with Columbia Records.

Bruce and the E Street Band released Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J. in January and The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle in September. The LPs weren't commercial hits, but gained Bruce critical attention, and while touring in Chicago, Bruce and the E-Street Band began to make a name for themselves and were finding a following by continuing their live performances and staying true to rock. Bruce had become known as the "New Dylan."

Bruce made it into the mainstream music scene after 10 years of playing local clubs. His LP, Born To Run released was his first commercial hit LP and critics applauded his rock base and strong lyrics. The LP went Top 10 and the title track made the Top 40.

Bruce was hailed as the "savior of rock and roll. and made the covers of Time and Newsweek and played live in bigger venues.

For the next few years, Bruce had to battle with his management over his music. By the time Bruce's next LP, Darkness On The Edge Of Town, was released Bruce was competing with "the new wave" sound and Springsteen-wannabes. The LP was a modest hit and continued Bruce's ability to tell stories while giving a rock performance with "The Promised Land" and "Badlands."

Bruce appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone for the first of several times.

Bruce released the #1 LP, The River, and made it into the Top 10 with "Hungry Heart" and Top 20 with "Fade Away." Even though the LP was a double-LP, The River was a commercial hit.

The LP was a sharp departure from his usual work, but was embraced again by critics and Bruce's loyal fans.

Bruce released his best-selling LP, Born In The U.S.A. which eventually sold over 15 million copies in the U.S. The LP spawned 7 Top 10 hits including his #1 hit, "Dancing In The Dark." Bruce also hit it big with the songs "I'm On Fire," "Glory Days," "My Hometown," "I'm Goin' Down," "Cover Me," and the title track.

Springsteen appeared in a British court in hopes of blocking the release of some of his earliest work from 26 years ago. The material was recorded in 1972 and a company named Masquerade Music is attempted to sell the work as a LP called Before The Flame. His lawyer stated, "It matters to Mr. Springsteen that he retains control of his artistic output."

The final list of inductees this year to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame were announced and included Springsteen.
A 4-CD set called Trackswas released. The set features 66 tracks and b-sides, with 56 unreleased songs spanning Springsteen's 25 year recording career. The set contains 17 tracks from the mid-70s, 17 tracks taken from the sessions for The River and Born In The U.S.A. during the late 70s and early 80s, 18 tracks from the mid- to late 80s, and 14 tracks from the 90s. Springsteen states in the linear notes: "This collection contains everything from the first notes I sand in the Columbia recording studio, my early and later work with the E Street Band, through to my music in the 90s... I'm glad to finally be able to share this music; here are some of the ones that got away."

Springsteen's court battle to have some of his early work blocked from being released was ruled in his favor when a judge ruled that the Boss owned the songs. Springsteen said of the court fight, "I came here to defend the ownership of my music... it's something I fought for since I was young and I'm really satisfied."
Springsteen's manager confirmed that the Boss would be touring worldwide once again with the E Street Band next summer for the first time in 10 years.

Springsteen was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and dedicated the honor to his mom and his dad who had recently died: "I have to thank him, because what would I conceivably have written about without him? I mean, you gotta imagine, if everything had gone great between us, it would have been a disaster. I would have written just happy songs and I tried that in the early 90s and it didn't work. The public didn't like it." Springsteen also acknowledged each member of the E Street Band, who were not eligible to be inducted with him.

Springsteen released 18 Tracksfeaturing songs from his box set, Tracks and the previously unreleased track "The Fever" recorded in 1973. The track is a favorite of many longtime Springsteen fans who were surprised it wasn't included with the Tracksset.
