Darkness on the Edge of Town and Born in the USA: two all-time Boss classics
‘Radio Nowhere’ blasted out of the speakers with a thousand guitars and pounding drums and ‘Girls In Their Summer Clothes’ sounded like a typical boss hit but listen again and they’re sadder things. The girls pass our man by, and all he hears is a drone. The war in Iraq haunts the grooves of Magic as “metal and plastic” cave in bodies in ‘Devil’s Arcade’, Mary sits with the colours of the fallen in ‘Gypsy Biker’, and “martyr’s silent eyes petition the drivers” in ‘Last To Die’. Heavy.
