This limited 40th anniversary edition of Bruce Springsteen's smash hit record, Born in the U.S.A., has been pressed on translucent red vinyl and features a faithfully reimagined gatefold sleeve that includes a new12-page booklet with a new essay from Erik Flannigan, and a 4-color lithograph.
Born in the U.S.A., the seventh studio album by Bruce Springsteen, was released on June 4, 1984. A global critical and commercial success, it found Springsteen marking a departure in his sound. While its predecessor, the dark and acoustic Nebraska, featured songs of pessimism and isolation, Born in the U.S.A.'s lyrics expressed signs of hope in the daily fight of the ordinary American in following the American Dream, a new feeling complemented by synthesized arrangements and a pop-flavored, radio-oriented sound that helped Springsteen to extend his popularity and appeal to mainstream audiences. Born in the U.S.A. was the best-selling album of 1985 in the United States (and Springsteen's most successful album ever), selling 15 million copies in the U.S alone, and 30 million worldwide.
