I don’t know how old you are, but summer on the Jersey shore in the late 60’s through the 70’s - the place Springsteen sings about in his early records - is something I truly wish I could go back in time and experience. As a late Gen Xer, I’m afraid that is one slice of Americana that peaked just before I was born and then died a slow death at the hands of cynicism and caricature.
I hate his politics, love his songs. Born in ‘68.
Deep Purple/Zeppelin then glam rock then Guns N Roses
Now Tylenol pm lol
Every retrograde society produces unbelievable music. Red Bank Catholic ‘79. I know every place I his songs.
I “did” the Jersey shore in the 60’s and 70’s. Trust me, it wasn’t that special (other than the time we saw the Four Seasons at Steel Pier). It was more family friendly, though. Gambling took everything downhill in a hurry.
