Greatest Hits Broadcast Collection

Bruce Springsteen, Greatest Hits Broadcast Collection. Since the age of 15, Springsteen’s life has been focused on rock ‘n’ roll. He’s always been a leader, and it was during his teens he headed a series of bands such as Child and Dr. Zoom and the Sonic Boom. Springsteen soon became a local bar favourite, and even played as far afield as the Fillmore in San Francisco. He was also making regular runs into Manhattan, appearing as both a bandleader and soloist in Greenwich Village clubs, learning his craft in the most basic and diverse way possible. Although the more intimate surroundings of New York’s Bottom Line was a sanctuary for the singer/songwriter.

As a social commentator, Bruce Springsteen paints the American condition in the 20thcentury. His wholehearted belief in rock music as nothing less than a genuine force of liberation. There is no doubting that the 70s was Springsteen’s halcyon period and this carefully curated collection of songs features the anthemic Born To Run, Thunder Road, Rosalita and Darkness at the Edge Of Town all recorded between 1973 and 1978. They showcase Springsteen’s charisma as a bandleader, storyteller and cultural icon.
