Description If there''s one artist who wears his influences lower on his sleeve than just about anyone else, it has to be Bruce Springsteen. He regularly plays his favourite songs live, often records them and even invites the artists who wrote or performed them originally to join him on stage or in the studio. And while his sound is unmistakably Bruce, he has a unique way to pay tribute to his musical idols while composing and producing. This CD contains 25 tracks that shaped Springsteen''s musical taste, his songwriting and his performances. From obvious cuts like Twist and Shout, Be My Baby and Johnny B Goode, to lesser knows songs from the likes of Pete Seeger, Amos Milburn, James Brown and even Robert Mitchum, this compilation really can be thought of as Bruce''s personal Jukebox. Listening to the selection as a whole provides a unique opportunity to enter the Springsteen muse and allows the listener the opportunity to identify, on track after track, Springsteen''s ingenious method of using inspirations without ever ''borrowing'', copying or, God forbid, thieving from other composers.
