His albums in the '70s were nothing short of brilliant (Thunder Road, IMHO, is one of the greatest R&R songs ever written); but THEN, he accumulated incredible wealth and incredible guilt, and adopted the persona of the disaffected left wing working man. Bruce is now a phony looking for redemption not underneath a dirty hood, but in the socialism of a rich man.

Well put. A $200 million dollar entertainer taking on the persona of a blue collar working man. Its phoney to the max; a charade that he employs to promote an “common man” image for the sole purpose of collecting high ticket prices from a gullible and nostalgic audience.
