Description: Bruce Springsteen’s debut album was recorded on a modest budget at 914 Sound Studios in Blauvelt, NY, with Columbia initially skeptical about its commercial potential. Early pressings barely sold, but thanks to relentless touring and word-of-mouth buzz, songs like “Blinded by the Light” later found recognition—Manfred Mann’s Earth Band even turned that track into a #1 hit in 1977, giving Springsteen unexpected retroactive chart success.
