Early last century, industrial piers stretched up the Hudson River from the Battery to the Upper West Side. Most respectable New Yorkers shied away from the working waterfront and therefore lived toward the middle of the island. But in today’s postindustrial Manhattan, the West Side is a highly desirable—and expensive— place, home to residential developments catering to the well-to-do who want to live close to the waterfront and its now recreational piers.

  • A Long Walk Home: the Role of Class and the Military in the Springsteen Catalogue Michael S
    A Long Walk Home: The Role of Class and the Military in the Springsteen Catalogue Michael S. Neiberg United States Army War College and Robert M. Citino National World War II Museum1 Abstract This article analyzes the themes of class and military service in the Springsteen canon. As a member of the baby boom generation who narrowly missed service in Vietnam, Springsteen’s reflection on these heretofore unappreciated themes should not be surprising. Springsteen’s emergence as a musician and American icon coincide with the end of conscription and the introduction of the All-Volunteer Force in 1973. He became an international superstar as Americans were debating the meaning of the post-Vietnam era and the patriotic resurgence of the Reagan era. Because of this context, Springsteen himself became involved in veterans issues and was a voice of protest against the 2003 Iraq War. In a well-known monologue from his Live 1975-85 box set (1986), Bruce Springsteen recalls arguing with his father Douglas about the younger Springsteen’s plans for his future. Whenever Bruce provided inadequate explanations for his life goals, Douglas responded that he could not wait for the Army to “make a man” out of his long-haired, seemingly aimless son. Springsteen 1 Copyright © Michael S. Neiberg and Robert M. Citino, 2016. Michael Neiberg would like to thank Derek Varble, with whom he saw Springsteen in concert in Denver in 2005, for his helpful comments on a draft of this article. Address correspondence to [email protected] or [email protected]. BOSS: The Biannual Online-Journal of Springsteen Studies 2.1 (2016) http://boss.mcgill.ca/ 42 NEIBERG AND CITINO describes his fear as he departed for an Army induction physical in 1968, at the height of domestic discord over the Vietnam War.

Winter itself has seemed a physical manifestation of the current economic crisis, a reflection of our frozen state of affairs. Personally, I haven’t been allowing myself the luxury of actually s believing this winter has really gone; every time I’ve done so in the past there’s been one or more big snow dumps to dig out from. It gives me that dreaded Charlie Brown/ Lucy/football feeling, like I’ve been had yet again. But this year I’m going to choose to believe it’s truly spring, in spite of the inherent dangers. The temptation to grab onto something— anything—that feels positive and redemptive is too strong.
