Not Great Enough
So the Bruce album is out on Tuesday and it has been leaked already. I've heard a bunch of the songs off the record and I'm happy with them.
It's more Bruce music.
What could be bad?
Yet there are critics out there who are saying that it's not great enough.
Bruce's records are always ambitious projects that spawn a number of hits.
This one might not do that.
Will he release another record before the end of 2014.
People, people, people.
The man is 64 years old.
He's the only rock and roll guy doing anything!
I have a buddy who is a Led Zeppelin fan.
They last made a song in about 1978.
Before this guy was born.
Then there are the Beatles fans...
...and while McCartney is still writing songs...
...they broke up in 1970.
The Stones haven't made a record in ten years. They keep re-issuing the same songs in a different package.
So Bruce has written only five records in the last five years. He's only played a couple thousand three and a half hour concerts since then.
Lazy bastard!
The first song off the record is High Hopes.
It's a great song.
It's better than any rock song recorded since...
...the last Bruce record.
We'll take what we can get here in Bruce-land.
Just because he performs like a jukebox when we see him doesn't mean he can write 100 songs every year.
But when you raise the bar that high, people will question the work ethic I suppose.
Can't wait until Tuesday!
