But more than forty years later, \u003ci\u003eNebraska\u003c\/i\u003e is arguably Springsteen's most important record--the lasting clue to understanding not just his career as an artist and the vision behind it, but also the man himself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eNebraska \u003c\/i\u003eis rough and unfinished, recorded on cassette tape with a simple four-track recorder by Springsteen, alone in his bedroom, just as the digital future was announcing itself. And yet Springsteen now considers it his best album. \u003ci\u003eNebraska\u003c\/i\u003e expressed a turmoil that was reflective of the mood of the country, but it was also a symptom of trouble in the artist's life, the beginnings of a mental breakdown that Springsteen would only talk about openly decades after the album's release. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWarren Zanes spoke to many people involved with making \u003ci\u003eNebraska, \u003c\/i\u003e including Bruce Springsteen himself. He also interviewed more than a dozen celebrated artists and musical insiders, from Rosanne Cash to Steven Van Zandt, about their reactions to the album. Zanes interweaves these conversations with inquiries into the myriad cultural touchpoints, including Terrence Malick's \u003ci\u003eBadlands \u003c\/i\u003eand the short stories of Flannery O'Conner, that influenced Springsteen as he was writing the album's haunting songs. The result is a textured and revelatory account of not only a crucial moment in the career of an icon but also a record that upended all expectations and predicted a home-recording revolution.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarren Zanes\u003c\/b\u003e is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of \u003ci\u003ePetty: The Biography\u003c\/i\u003e.
