Heart of Darkness: Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska by David Burke
Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF reader, 1.8 Mb
Overview: In January 1982, Bruce Springsteen recorded a bunch of demos on a four-track Portastudio in his New Jersey home, intended as templates for the follow-up to his blockbusting double set, The River. Instead, ten of the songs, in their home recorded form, became Nebraska, a stark soundtrack to an economic downturn in America on a scale not seen since the Great Depression, a noir album evoking the southern Gothic literature of Flannery O’Connor and the ghost of Fifties’ serial killer Charles Starkweather, among others.
In Heart of Darkness, David Burke evaluates the album’s American folk roots, places it in the context of Springsteen’s entire body of work and hears from a generation of artists who cite it as a major influence.
