Bruce is a manufactured Bob Dylan. His Svengali was rock critic par excellence, former editor of the great Fusion Magazine, and most recently film producer (Titanic, if I'm not mistaken,) Jon Landau. Keith Richards captured the essence of Bruce when he said many years ago that his music sounds "contrived".

Keith Richards captured the essence of Bruce when he said many years ago that his music sounds "contrived". The difference being, of course, that Bruce can carry a tune. What exactly does "uncontrived" music sound like?

Fusion Magazine bump! I loved that rag...almost as much as Creem, which is saying a lot!

It was Landau who said, I believe, something like: "I have seen the future of rock n' roll, and its name is Bruce Sprinsteen."

"Bruce is a manufactured Bob Dylan."
Agreed! Although putting him in the same sentence with Dylan is bad enough. I think his music sucks. The music industry can make anyone they wish a star. Some of Bruce's lyrics are decent, but he sounds so awful I can't stand him. They even made the warbler, B.S. a star. How disgusting!!! The music industry is a large cabal of a$$holes.
