Set Lusting Bruce: The Bruce Springsteen Fan Podcast

Steven Hyden @Steven_Hyden recently released a new column ranking Bruce Springsteen's album @springsteen. His column made me think and a few listeners asked how I would rank the albums. I took each album, counted the number of songs that I loved on each release and figured out the percentages of loved songs per album. Once I did that, I sorted the list. There are some surprising numbers. This is a personal list based on my personal feelings about the songs I love. I know that some of you will be shocked by my results.
