The record
Title: Bruce Springsteen – Born In The U.S.A.
Year/Genre/City: 1984, Rock, New Jersey, USA
Matrix #: qc 38653
Condition: VG+
Cultural Facts:
-
Political Science: The title was widely misread as flag-waving; the lyric is about Vietnam fallout and working-class abandonment, not triumph.
-
Media Narrative: The red-cap/flag photo became a culture-war symbol—campaigns tried to claim it while Springsteen kept pointing back to the story.
-
Studio Lore: Several core tracks began as stark Nebraska-era demos; polished versions carried that same bleak core into pop-scale packaging.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
