#345 Bruce Springsteen, 'The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle' (1973)

His sophomore album, 'The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle,' was released just 10 months later and it was this one that established the sound Bruce Springsteen would come to be known by. If I’m not mistaken, it was also the first time that the E Street Band was mentioned by that name. This is a full band record and this incarnation of the band includes longstanding members Clarence Clemons, Danny Federici (both deceased), as well as Garry Tallent. These three members really were the foundation of the E Street Band sound.
