Which Bruce Springsteen Albums Are These Songs From?

Because who doesn't love a bit of The Boss from time to time!

by Andrew Pollard

In the pantheon of legendary musical acts, few have had the success and sheer longevity of The Boss, Bruce Springsteen.

Since releasing Blinded by the Light back in 1973, Springsteen has gone on to release a ridiculous 19 studio albums and 70 singles - and that's not even taking into account the countless live albums and compilation releases for the New Jersey icon. Springsteen is one of those rare talents who gets appreciated by generation after generation of new fans, with his live tours selling out mere minutes after tickets go on sale.

While pretty much everybody will know that Born in the U.S.A. was taken from the Born in the U.S.A. album, we're going to dive a little deeper into Springsteen knowledge here. From scanning through the ludicrously large back catalogue of The Boss, we've picked 15 of his classic tracks for you to have a little reminisce over. All that you have to do is correctly identify which of Springsteen's studio albums each particular song was first featured on.

It may sound easy, but a few wrong answers could well leave you dancing in the dark. And yes, we're fully aware just how awful that pun was.
