Customer Reviews:
One of his very best. And still powerful.......2006-03-23
The boy is becoming a man. Punk energy, anger still generate anthems, but urgency eases out steadiness; toughness increases, but so does uncertainty; demands increase as hope falters. Bitterness peeks through for first time, but GP's giant heart continues to pour over everything. Quintessential GP + Rumour. Tough, tight, soulful, passionate anthems. Towers over anything being made today. Almost all tracks are classics. Stand-out: tr 10--(Can't have) Love without greed.
A real Cracker from Graham.......2004-08-04
"Up Escalator" is simply a great album. Endless Night, the track featuring Mr. Springsteen on backing vocal, is rip-roarin'; never fails to raise the hair on the back of my neck.
I bought this Way Back When as a bargain-bin cutout. I'd love to own the CD.
If you enjoyed my review, please be sure to visit my wishlist and buy me a copy of "Up Escalator," as my turntable is no more.
Oh and get a copy for yourself while you're at it!
Thanking you in advance,
Kaz
