THE ESSENTIAL BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN covers every phase of the Boss's career, from the Dylan-inspired absurdist folk-rock of his 1973 debut, through the Brando-with-a-Telecaster pathos of DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN, to the Spectorian grandeur of BORN TO RUN and the stark, existential folk of NEBRASKA. And that's just the first disc. The second goes on to document Springsteen's superstar period with cuts from the epochal BORN IN THE USA and the moody, stripped-down TUNNEL OF LOVE, on through his post-9/11 mission statement, THE RISING.For hardcore fans that already own everything on the first two CDs, there's a bonus disc of rarities--none of which appeared on the prolific songwriter's rarities box set, TRACKS. The brightest spots of disc three are easily the equal of Springsteen's best-known material. Bruce's own version of "From Small Things" (covered successfully by Dave Edmunds), a furious live version of the working man's lament "Held Up Without a Gun," and the gorgeously evanescent "County Fair" are worth the price of admission all by themselves. True to its promise, this collection perfectly captures the essence of the gifted Jersey boy's magic. Editorial Reviews Entertainment Weekly (11/21/2003) | |||||||||||||

Report this review Review created: 09/03/08 by: there a lots of songs on the double cd which from across the years, some revealing the boss' more folky roots. 'born in the usa' together with 'born to run' and many more of the well known hits are side by side with 'blinded by the night', 'mary's place' and two live recordings. adding 'the promise', 'hearts of stone' and 'the fever' would make it even more essential bruce springsteen, but that's a purely personal opinion.
