Bruce 'Frederick Joseph' Springsteen, surnommé The Boss (né le 23 septembre 1949 à Long Branch, US) est un auteur-compositeur-interprète américain.
A 13 ans, sa mère lui achète sa première guitare. En 1965, il se rend à la maison de Tex et Marion Vinyard, qui parrainent les jeunes groupes de la ville. Ils l'aide à devenir le guitariste, puis le chanteur des Castiles. Fin 1960, il fait partie brièvement du trio Earth. C'est à cette période qu'il acquiert le surnom de The Boss, parce que c'est lui qui récupère l'argent lors des concerts et le redistribue à ses comparses. Il fut membres par la suite de plusieurs groupes tels que Child, Steel Mill, Sundance Blues Band, Dr Zoom and the Sonic Boom, Bruce Springsteen Band...
Son premier album solo 'Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.' est sorti en 1973.

Au passage, c'était un très bon livre.
Après, ses chansons, je ne les connais pas.
