3.0 out of 5 stars Only for the die hards, November 2, 2001
By 
Rodrigo Llamozas (the last cubicle at the end of the hall...) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Before the Fame (Audio CD)
This compilation is filled with underproduced tracks that Bruce recorded not only before he was famous, but even before he actually had released any material at all.

While not necessarily awful, the quality of the recordings don't stack up to other Springsteen CDs (obviously).

If you're a casual fan, and don't really know any of Bruce's history, you're better off staying away from this CD.

On the other hand, if you are indeed into the Boss, you might want to check this record out. Mostly a 'scientific curiosity', but nonetheless interesting.

...only for the die hards...

3.0 out of 5 stars Rare early Bruce songs.Buy it before the lawyers find out!, December 26, 2001
This review is from: Before the Fame (Audio CD)
This is a nice collection of Springsteen songs circa 1973. Unless you're a fan of Bruce's early acoustic, lyric-heavy songs, this collection will not hold much appeal for you.
This set puts the songs of a very young Springsteen out for review, and you can see that early on Bruce was different than the rest of his contemporaries.

If you are interested in this title, you may want to purchase it NOW, as this is likely a grey market release, as it has no afffiliation woith CBS/Sony, which holds the copytright for Springsteen's recorded catalog.
