10 Perfect Rock Albums For Summer 2022

Chances are you'll be taking some kind of road trip this summer. Whether it's a prolonged, several hour endeavour, or a short journey down the coast, you're going to need some appropriate road music. Sure, you could just leave it up to the Spotify search engine - there are copious amounts of "Road Trip" playlists on offer - but if you want to avoid the predictable Jack Johnson tracks, then why not leave it up to the Boss.

Now, there are many possible Springsteen records that will enhance your vehicular experience. Born In the U.S.A. (1984) is full of tracks ripe for belting out at the top of you lungs with the windows down. But there's only one real choice, and that's Springsteen's third album and his breakout endeavour, Born To Run.

For one, the album opens up with the fittingly titled "Thunder Road", an appropriate way to kick off any journey. The album only continues with this kind of forward moving momentum with "Nights" and of course the title track - both of which are perfect for playing loud as you cruise along the highway. Finishing things off, you have the epic nine and half minute saxophone journey "Jungleland" - yep, this is driving music alright.
