Does a review or write-up exist of Bruce Springsteen's "Nebraska" that does not include the word, "stark"? We'll go out on a limb barren of all foliage and say no. The stark 1982 release from Springsteen that was recorded by himself at home with just his guitar, harmonica, voice, and few other instruments. Released after the sprawling 2-LP set of "The River" and before the bombast and commercial success that would be "Born In the USA". In a career full of outstanding records, Nebraska may stand out and Bruce Springsteen's masterpiece. A must own. This is the 2014 remastered vinyl edition.
