Bruce Springsteen, also known as "The Boss", is an American singer-songwriter and rock musician. Born on September 23, 1949 in Long Branch, New Jersey, he is widely recognized for his poetic lyrics, distinctive voice, and energetic stage performances. With his roots in the Jersey Shore music scene, Springsteen released his first album in 1973. He is accompanied by the talented backing group called The E-Street Band. In 1999, he was honored with inductions into both the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame (Performer) and Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Springsteen's personal life includes being the older brother of Pamela Springsteen. He married Patti Scialfa on June 8, 1991. Together they have a son named Evan James Springsteen who was born on July 25, 1990.

Discover Bruce Springsteen's iconic music and experience his captivating live performances that have made him a legendary figure in rock music history.

Established in 1977, Mobile Fidelity (MFSL) is a renowned label specializing in remastering major-label music for the discerning "audiophile" market. With CD releases starting in 1984, MFSL has become synonymous with high-quality sound reproduction.

Known for their meticulous attention to detail, MFSL releases often feature unchanged copyright dates from the original release. However, most of their releases are issued a year or so later. The first Gold Ultradisc™ CD was introduced in February 1987, followed by the Gold Ultradisc II™ (Made in USA) CD in September 1992.

MFSL takes pride in their branded labels and ensures that all their releases are remastered by their own Sound Labs. Their catalog of releases can be found on the "Sites" section. Notably, limited editions were prevalent during the label's early years and featured an information sticker on the shrink wrap. Additionally, numbered retail copies often had corresponding unnumbered promotional versions.

Sourced from the original analogue master tapes, pressed at RTI on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited to 7,500 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity's UltraDisc One-Step 180g 33RPM LP set is the definitive-sounding version of Springsteen’s daring debut. Afforded the benefits of SuperVinyl’s nearly non-existent noise floor, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. plays with a clarity, directness, and emotionalism that practically whisks you into the New York office in which Springsteen — accompanied by then-manager Mike Appel — played a few originals for legendary Columbia Records executive John Hammond and earned a record deal.

Teeming with identifiable characters, youthful romanticism, vivid narratives, and sophisticated arrangements, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. is a personal postcard from the heart, soul, and mind of a rock ’n’ roll lifer bent on discovering his world and what lays beyond it. The 1973 album establishes many of the signature themes and sounds Bruce Springsteen would embrace throughout his unparalleled career. No wonder a majority of the songs — “Blinded by the Light,” “Lost in the Flood,” “Spirit in the Night” included — remain staples of the New Jersey native’s fabled concerts.
