...took several listening and a retreat to earlier albums to understand why Darkness on the Edge of Town is not the great Springsteen album. Much of the new album fails to swing, bounce, rock or ring as true as Springsteen's earlier stuff. It gets right down to a comparison of the different drummers on the albums. Max Weinberg, who handles drums on this album, plods unimaginatively compared to Vini "Mad Dog" Lopez, who lays down the beat on The Wild, the Innocent, and The E Street Shuffle.

Like other screens in the show, this one reminds us that - despite the wonders of democracy and industrial growth - the quality of life...
...concrete islands at the intersection of Brattle St. and Mt. Auburn St. near Coolidge Trust. They draw big crowds and expect money at the end of their shows, which most people give without gruding since they are well worth it. Among this season's best in the center ring are The Shakespeare Bros., who do comedy, clowning, juggling and various other stunts, a magician who is nothing short of amazing and The Amazing Fantasy Jugglers, who are truly fantastic. These acts get started around 5 p.m. and keep it up almost all night. The magician does jaw-opening sleight...
