​Bruce Springsteen (from the album Letter to You available on Columbia Records) (by Bryant Liggett) 
Bruce Springsteen continues to knock it out of the park.  Aging with grace and impossible to criticize, his ever-expanding catalog has something for everyone while his commitment to live performance will forever rival that of his colleagues no matter what age. Backed by the solid, steady E Street Band, Bruce’s latest in Letter to You is one more road sign on a reliable path of excellence, Springsteen still speaking for us all as he digs into what makes fellow men and women tick. “One Minute You’re Here” starts off Letter to You as a dark and lonesome train song, life in a short ballad with vivid images from Springsteen memories of edge-of-town carnivals and muddy rivers.
“Janey Needs A Shooter,” “If I Was the Priest”, and “Song for Orphans” are classic Bruce Springsteen anthems; tear-jerking, six-minute-plus, singalongs. Springsteen creates characters with for life, his trusty band a Rock’n’Roll symphony on dramatic tunes, the stories playing out like classic American novels. Showcasing a master at digging up memories, Letter to You travels from ‘faded pictures in an old scrapbook’ (“Last Man Standing”) to recollections of a ‘dreamy afternoon ‘neath the summer sun’ (“The Power of Prayer”). “I’ll See You in My Dreams” provides the big dramatic ending, closing Letter to Youin storybook fashion. Badasses that they are, the E Street Band keep on pushing, always providing the solid and steady backbeat and audio accents for The Boss’s lyrical footwork. (by Bryant Liggett)
