Customer Rating:
Summary: love it!! Great mix of genre
Comment: This album sounds great.
Songs are of all styles: fast/slow, hard/soft.
None of them is to skip, and Bruce's voice still work its magic, hence the title!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best album of 08
Comment: Didn't know he had this in him. I have always respected him as an artist but couldn't quite follow his musical direction in the past 10-15 years. Song for song this is his best album ever. Finally great music AND lyrics.
It is like a deeper Human Touch with sophisticated rock parts like Born in the USA and emotion like The River.
A must-buy for any Springsteen fan and anyone who wants to know how a rock album is really done.

Summary: Bruce needs to take some happy pills
Comment: This is the absolute worst CD I have ever encountered. It really seems like everyone forgot how good he was before, and just gave him credit for this disaster based on all the hype about it. People, this is not even close to a fair CD. There is a constant "drone" throughout this entire CD and there is not one good song on here. Every song sounds the same and like a depressed middle-aged man is singing the songs. Really listen to this one or borrow it before you spend the money on it. I would give him another chance, but this one sucked!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Nice songs, horrible recording
Comment: First of all, the songs on this album are strong and very good. But the production of the 'sound', and mastering is horrible. All instruments have the same volume, no dynamics.. I got bored after the second song.
This cd is only enjoyable in the car, or on a Ipod..
Customer Rating:
Summary: Horrible Sound Quality
Comment: First of all this is a great record musically. Unfortunately, as other reviewers have noted, the sound quality is horrendous. How a recording engineer can put his name on the credits of this is beyond me. I read a review recently that this same recording engineer admitted the compressed sound was not great, but not bad either. His hearing must be in really bad shape. Unless musicians stand up and protest such travesties of their recordings, we will continually be subjected to this.. Luckily, Neil Young and Bob Dylan are examples of artists who care about both the musicality and sound quality of their recordings and have set great examples with recent releases. Please let the recording industry know and more importantly, the artists, that consumers want to hear good sound in addition to good music...
