I can't believe no one has written a review for this yet! Where to start? Well, Bruce has continued on from The Rising with another stonking album with the E Street Band. The album opener, Radio Nowhere is destined to become a Bruce anthem up there alongside Born To Run, Badlands and Tenth Ave Freeze Out. Moving on from this we get You'll Be Coming Down, a good solid track & Living In the Future, a politically inspired track but very good listening. Slows down again for Your Own Worst Enemy before the haunting harmonica of Gypsy Biker. Girls in Their Summer Clothes, a good fun tune. I'll work for your love is then followed by the title track Magic. Good track but not in my opinion the best on the album. The last four tracks Last to Die, Long Walk Home, Devil's Arcade & Terry's song can never go down in my book as classics, but all stand up in their own right. All in all an album similar in a lot of ways to The Rising, just an overall slightly slower pace. Still a must for any Bruce fan and indeed any lover of good quality music.
Advantages: Bruce Springsteen wrote it. Enough said. Disadvantages: Nil
...The joy of any music, is without doubt, in the ear of the beholder. Something one person loves, will be hated with equal passion by another. So onto Magic.
BruceSpringsteen is a genious, of that there is no doubt. For those who may doubt my words, go and see him perform live. Either with, or without the EStreetBand, there is no one who does it better on stage than Bruce. But it's not only Bruces stage presence that's impressive, but the depth of his song writing.
Looking at the title track, Magic. "It's not really about Magic". Bruce said as he introduced the song at a recent concert. "It's about tricks". The song's about how governments twist truth into lies and lies into the truth. Or is it? listen to those lyrics and make your own minds up. A great song that will provoke thought, and take you to a place that you may not want to...
