Well, then based on that, I'll give it a listen.
I was a Springsteen and E Street band fan in the late 70's...saw many a show, although I burnt out on it....

right, so that makes you wrong" exchange. You should take note that I
didn't include in my initial email on the subject: "anyone who thinks
Jon Anderson's lyrics are profound or even good knows absolutely
nothing about what constitutes good poetry." That wouldn't have been
very nice, would it? And you would then have a perfect right to feel
insulted -- as I do nowSo I'm going to mediate this whole thing. Rick... Jon Anderson wrote lyrics that often made no sense and were sort of, "stream of consciousness. " The words were just that... they were meant to carry the mood of the song nothing more. It's not like Jon wrote anything that expresses an opinion or educates the listener.Donald, don't fuck with Rick.There! It's over.So, I just had a chance to listen to the new Bruce Springsteen CD. It is really, really great. I don't give a rat's ass about you naysayers. No one on this list is capable of producing anything close. These songs ring of passion. They are Rock in it's purest form. Great music and something to say. And a ton of great Chamberlin to boot.I don't care if some of you disagree. Remember, only my opinion counts.Frank II
