The record


Title: Bruce Springsteen - Darkness On The Edge Of Town
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1978, Rock, Pop Rock, Freehold, New Jersey 7/26
Matrix #: JC 35318
Condition: VG+, sounds great, looks good, a few light marks (CC) | Members: Bruce S (49' - Alive), Clarence C (42' - 11'), Steven V (50' - Alive), Roy B (49' - Alive), Garry T (49' - Alive), Max W (51' - Alive), Danny F (50' - 08')
Cultural Facts:

  1. Legal Trouble: Springsteen made Darkness after a long lawsuit with former manager Mike Appel kept him out of the studio for years after Born To Run.
  2. Studio Lore: The album strips away some of Born To Run’s street-opera glow, leaning into tougher guitars, leaner arrangements, and songs about work, pride, and damaged dreams.
  3. Media Narrative: Darkness turned Springsteen into something grittier than a hype-story rock star, showing he could follow a breakthrough with a darker, more disciplined classic.

    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).
