    How to follow Born To Run? With this purposefully different w/ a more stripped-down pared back laid back production masterpiece w/ lyrics focused on the grim details of everyday life & themes of troubled souls in troubled times
    BS’s most solid batch of songs & one of his best works.

    My copy (purchased in Australia) has 'blacked out' labels that were made at the time the label was printed. The red label with the 'boiler plate' Columbia words written around the rim is printed over with the album title and track listings, the matrix and catalogue numbers, etc/ The rim text blackout would be done AT THE SAME TIME. These prepared labels would then be used in the stamper. That press run was for export copies that would make it a UNIQUE release. The rim text blackout is exactly that: it is in effect marking it - at manufacturing time - "For Export Only".
