"Rob Kirkpatrick's Magic in the Night uses Bruce Springsteen's biography as a lens through which listeners can reevaluate his music as he morphs from "the next Bob Dylan" to a Reagan-era pop culture icon, and again to today's populist voice, discussing each album in chronological order. Kirkpatrick's keen insights show why the classic 1975 album Born to Run is the most popular album of all time (according to a recent Zagat Survey) and what's made Springsteen the most respected and influential artist in rock music."--Jacket.
