It may be heresy to say this, as a Bruce Springsteen fanatic, but I can’t agree with the sentiment that Thunder Road is the greatest rock ‘n roll record ever. First, I’d pick ‘Born to Run’ as Bruce’s best, because it’s so elemental, and second, my all time #1 rock song is still “Sympathy for the Devil,” with its challenging lyrics and the great variety with which its tune can be adapted.
