»rank: 546
0ur Review: :The sleeve photo of a crocodile's eye with a faint image of Rodrigo and Gabriela superimposed, suits the artists' desire for something which didn't shout 'Mexican guitarists' or 'Couples.'

But the record also contained two far more lyrical pieces: 'Chillin' of the Evening' and the gorgeous, sweeping 'Highway in the Wind.' Some will ...

»rank: 2178
0ur Review: :Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. essential recording:Hot on the heels of The River, his commercial breakthrough, Springsteen's decision to release the stark, demo-quality Nebraska seems downright perverse. But the genius of the album is unmistakable--with just an acoustic guitar and his howling harmonica to back him, Springsteen tells the stories of characters walking on both sides of the law, some of them directly on the line ...
