Wild the innocent and the e street shuffle songs

The two sides of the album are thematically linked, but musically disparate. I am thankful that I discovered Wild as a vinyl record. The albumвЂ™s themes are those of someone who is questioning the life on the boardwalk, wondering of it is all the world has to offer him. There were still many colorful characters and locations, - вЂњSpanish JohnnyвЂќ вЂњa pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego wayвЂќ - but the storytelling had tightened. Intent on capturing the excitement of the live E Street Band - something Springsteen was prevented from fully accomplishing on Greetings both because of the songs and the record companyвЂ™s unease with his desire to be a rock and roll artist - Springsteen also included more musical variety on the album. Wild, by contrast, is caught between two worlds. On Greetings it was the energy of youth, and the characters of the boardwalk. Springsteen has always been an artist interested in creating albums that are a cohesive statements of a time, a feeling, or an idea. It instantly became one of my favorite Springsteen albums and remains one that I return to frequently. I listened to it for the first time that night. At ValвЂ™s, in the used record bin, there was BruceвЂ™s scruffy face staring back at me, his hand thoughtfully placed on his long-since-shaved-away beard. When I did finally acquire it, it was thanks to a visit to the local record store, ValвЂ™s Halla. I knew I liked SpringsteenвЂ™s first and third albums, and I had bought many of his other albums by that point.

One year and two months after purchasing my first Bruce Springsteen music, I discovered The Wild, the Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle. вЂњ Sparks fly on E Street when the boy- prophets walk it, handsome and hotвЂќ The Wild the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle (1973)
