 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, Child, Steel Mill,
the Togues, Dr. Soom, and the Sonic Boom.
- June 9: Bruce signed with
Columbia Records.
 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).
 January 5: Bruce and the E Street
Band released Greetings
From Asbury Park, N.J. The LP had 2 singles
released which didn't make the charts but
"Blinded By The Light" was later
covered by Manfred Mann's Earth Band.
The LP and the next release 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."
- May 9: Bruce opened for Bonnie Raitt in Boston. Jon Landau (his
future manager and producer) wrote in a Boston
paper: "I saw rock and roll future, and is
name is Bruce Springsteen. And on a night when I
need to feel young, he made me feel like I was
hearing music for the very first time."
- July 20: Bruce kicked off his
'Born To Run' tour.
 August 25: 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 hit the Top 10 in the US.
- March 23: Bruce began 'The Darkness
On The Edge Of Town' tour in New York.
 June 2: 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." The LP hit
the Top 10 in the US. - June 27: Darkness
On The Edge Of Town was certified platinum.
- July 15: Bruce hit the Billboard
Top 40 with "Prove It All Night."
 August 28: Bruce appeared on the
cover of Rolling Stone for the first of
multiple times.
 November 15: Bruce appeared on the
cover of Rolling Stone.

Bruce was injured in a motorcycle accident
resulting in three weeks of staying in bed. In
the fall, Bruce took part in the 'No Nukes'
shows.
- October 3: Bruce kicked off 'The
River' tour in Michigan.
 October 10: Bruce released his first
#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 hit #1 in the US,
Norway, and Canada, and the Top 10 in Australia,
Holland, France, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden, and
the UK.
- August 20: Bruce & The E Street
Band held a benefit concert for Vietnam vets in
L.A.
- September 20: Bruce shifted gears with
his music with his solemn LP, Nebraska. The LP's dark tone
confused some fans, gained others, but showed
that Bruce was enough of a superstar that he
could diverge from sure-thing patterns once in
awhile for the sake of art. The LP was a sharp
departure from his usual work, but was embraced
again by critics and Bruce's loyal fans. The LP
hit the Top 10 in the US, Australia, Canada,
Holland, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, and
the UK.
 June 4: 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. The LP
hit #1 in the US, Australia, Austria, Canada,
Holland, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden,

known for playing over 3 hours per show, and
never letting up. He rewarded many of his fans in
1986 by releasing a 5-LP concert LP of his many
tours over the years: Live
1975-85. The LP debuted at #1 and although

success. Bruce's lyrics had focused away from
blue-collar life struggles and focused more on

he retains control of his artistic output."

tracks from the 90s. Springsteen states in the
linear notes: "This collection contains
everything from the first notes I sand in the

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."

battle to have some of his early work blocked

something I fought for since I was young and I'm
really satisfied."

Human Rights.

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.
 April 13: Springsteen released 18

last 25 years I have always stayed one step away
from partisan politics. This year, however, for

this election out.... Our American government has
strayed too far from American values. It is time
