(Another) fun article about Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska

We all have heard about how he recorded it. Not so much about the mixdown and mastering. Interesting stuff.
I decided to search online after hearing "Atlantic City" on the radio last night, and reremembering what a great atmosphere that record has. And I don't even really like Springsteen.

My wife and I always go back and forth over "Nebraska" and "Ghost of Tom Joad". We're both huge Bruce fans (as well as Steinbeck) and I swear that "Nebraska" is the most important record ever made (I acknowledge the unruly level of bias combined with Tequila at this very moment), but I never get tired of that story. I've posted the link more than once and thank you for posting it again. Always an inspirational read for the home recordist. Given the recent discussions about the SM57, I'm sure this could be a ... wedge issue????
Either way, I love that album. My wife does too, but she gives "Ghost of Tom Joad" a slight edge.

I became obsessed with Nebraska over a year ago and was really hurting coming down, thinking there was no where else to go for that fix. But recently, hearing the first Boss album, I was pleasantly surprised. No over-the top drum sound, no ridiculous synths... I was very pleased.
Of course... it doesn't have that magical sound... but what does? The second Elliot Smith album is the only thing that really comes to mind...
