Re: Bruce Springsteen
I am a huge Bruce Springsteen fan but I would say pass. It is a pretty weak album overall. Do you have all albums before this? If not I would recommend "Magic", "Devils & Dust" or "The Rising" over "Working on a Dream". But of course if you are a diehard like me I am...

Big Brother & the Holding Company/Janis Joplin – Down on Me
Buddy Holly & the Crickets – Not Fade Away
Johnny Cash - Folsom Prison Blues
Faces/Rod Stewart – Miss Judy’s Farm
Elton John – Ballad of a Well-Known Gun

5. Okkervil River –...
My 2 cents on the genre...
"Country rock" (literally a fusion of rock and country music) was invented by Gram Parsons who is by far the most significant figure in the genre. The first true country rock album was "Safe at Home" by the International Submarine Band (headed by Parsons) in 1968...
