Fourth of July!

"Born in the U.S.A."

Taken from Born in the U.S.A. (1984)

In honor of the 4th of July, we here at HHDC salute the classic Bruce Springsteen album Born in the U.S.A. - which was released exactly fourteen years ago today. With it's anthemic title track and lengthy list of singles (which extended for more than a year after the release), it remains the biggest selling Springsteen album and one of the finest records of the eighties.

Though not exactly a patriotic song, the title track is nearly always associated with the holiday (particularly since the release was deliberately timed to coincide with it) and so we present it here. Eat, drink, and be merry!

Bonus Track



taken from Jimi Hendrix: The Ultimate Experience (1993)
