day 18: Highway Patrolman

Highway Patrolman by Bruce Springsteen

When did I start listening to Nebraska? On vinyl from some garage sale or thrift shop around the turn of the century? Probably. I knew nothing about it except that it was supposed to be good and different and I’ve gone all these years loving it (uh when in the right mood and able to handle how down it is) without ever reading about how it was made. Until just recently.

Highway Patrolman was always my favorite, and I started playing this years ago, but now that I’m writing this down, I realize Hungry Heart is the song I really want to cover, so maybe I’ll have to do a second Springsteen.
