6739. Bruce Springsteen - Cover Me
 |
| From: Born in the U.S.A.; Year: 1984; Genre: Rock |
Here is one that I've been meaning to pick for a while now; finally getting around to it.
Cover Me is one of the earlier hits off of this landmark album, which, truthfully, plays more like a "Greatest Hits" record than a normal mainstream rock disc. Heck, It'd probably be quick and easier to name the non-hit songs from the album, but even at that they probably get a bunch of play on the radio, streaming, in stores, jukeboxes, etc as well. Without a doubt people one or two-hundred or more years from now will still be listening to it; and much of "The Boss'" others as well.
Anyway, this one was originally written by Bruce for Donna Summer, however, his management decided that it would be a big hit if he recorded it himself, and they were right I suppose.
Every time I put this one on I am taken aback by Max Weinberg's drumming, which is amazing normally anyway, but in my opinion he doesn't get the full "props" from his talent and contributions, or mayhap he actually does; wot do I know after all? 🤪
