DescriptionIn one of the most famous quotes in rock ‘n’ roll history, then-critic Jon Landau wrote after a Springsteen show in 1974, “I saw rock and roll's future and its name is Bruce Springsteen.” In the decades since, New Jersey’s favorite son has proven that sentiment countless times while somehow maintaining a genuine connection to his New Jersey roots even as a multimillionaire icon. For true Bruce fans, that’s no surprise at all. His songwriting – and his immense success – owes as much to a relentless work ethic as it does to his undeniable brilliance. That’s a quintessentially Jersey approach. Unlike so many of his contemporaries, Springsteen has never become a caricature of himself. The Boss is always looking forward; always finding new inspiration. He wore this denim vest on stage during the tour that made him a global superstar – 1984’s ‘Born in the U.S.A.’
