Here is what people are saying about the Bruce Springsteen - The Ghost of Tom Joad
5 Star Rating  "Before he lost his teeth."2009-05-04
- Reviewed By User: A1G6BUI70X8IIC
This is a fitting companion to "Nebraska," my other favorite Springsteen record. The music is stripped to the core, to the lyrics and the stark instrumentation. The stories are good, lots of Steinbeck (more than the obvious) in songs like "Border Patrol." Records like this are more rewarding than the cheap swagger of recent Springsteen. Remember that the E Street Band wasn't doing much at this point in time, Max Weinberg was Conan O'brien's bandleader for Chrissakes, and Springsteen was free to concentrate on songwriting without the distraction of reverb-soaked snare drums or that godawful saxophone.
 
5 Star Rating  "Springsteen rocks the acoustic"2009-01-31

I just listened to this CD again, and was struck by the power.

It's kind of a testament to Springsteen's career that someone can be a huge fan, and not be the biggest fan of his hits. This CD, along with Nebraska and the Seeger Sessions, are what makes Springsteen great in my book. There are songs on this CD that tap the core of America, and what comes out isn't bitter wrapped in sweet ('Born in the USA'), it's just brutally honest through and through.

In particular, 'Youngstown', which serves as an ode to the workers and industry that built the nation. Powerful and sweeping, this song says more than many books.

'Ghost of Tom Joad', might as well be our new anthem, given the economic troubles the USA faces. This song serves as the base of the whole CD, and is a far more accurate picture of the USA today, than when it came out.

4 Star Rating  "Does it suck?"2008-08-19
- Reviewed By User: A2IMM6MUP7ZX0S
This has been his lowest selling album of all his studio albums. It didnt even make it on to the top 10. It barely sold over 500,000 copies. It even has been nicknamed Nebraska 2. It also have been critized because on Nebraska, he did the recordings all by himself at his home on a 4-track recorder with his voice, a acoustic guitar and harmonica. On The GHost Of Tom Joad. He works in a nice studio with a backing band. It is mainly backed by acoustic guitars. The lyrics to many of the tracks are a somber reflection of life in the mid-1990s in america and mexico.

I wonder if the reviewer XraySpex had listened to this CD? To write such a pathetic review...

This CD along with the GREAT "Nebraska" and the also magnific "Devils & Dust" completes a trilogy of great Springsteen records. My favourite tracks are: "The Ghost Of Tome Joad", "Straight Time", "Highway 29", "Sinaloa Cowboys", "Across The Border", "My Best Was Never Good Enough" and, especially, "Youngstown", with Soosie Tyrell on violin and Marty Rifkin on pedal steel guitar. I really do believe that "Youngstown" is one of the BEST Bruce's songs.

This proves - once again, once and for all - that Bruce Springsteen is one of the great American Ambassadors.
 
4 Star Rating  "Not his best, but good"2006-05-06
- Reviewed By User: A1831P64QJUSQ7
Except for "Dry Lightning" and "My Best Wasn't Good Enough", I believe the songs on Springsteen's second acoustic record are very good.

The reason I give this four stars, however, is the production. If I was the producer, I would have turned up the mike for Bruce's vocals and I would have drastically cut down on the keyboard instrumentation. If he had only cut down - or, even better, cut out - the keyboards, we might understand his words better. Also, if you listen closely to the acoustic guitar work Bruce does, it is wonderful... only problem is... you guessed it: keyboard overkill.

Looking beyond the keyboard instrumentation and the two aformentioned songs, though, I still recommend this album as Bruce portrays a portion of the United States that we either do not see or choose not to see.

Like I said in the title of this review, this record is not his best, but it is good nonetheless.
