The five hundred and fourty-sixth album: #546 Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA

This album leads off with its title track, a misunderstood album that works well in context. It's followed by a number of rock songs in a similar vein - working class stories, looking at the world around them and at those who are richer. A number of them are a similar sort of anthem, but some lean towards a bit more of a ballad or country rock song. The tone of the lyrics, however, are part of what pulls it away from there for me, focusing on quite a different political direction.
