Production & Recording Information
Notes:

The album cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the U.S.A." features a photograph of Springsteen's backside with the American flag in the background. The cover caused controversy because some people interpreted it as a political statement or a protest against the United States.

During the 1980s, the United States was going through a period of political and social upheaval, including the Vietnam War and a struggling economy. Springsteen's album dealt with these issues, and some people saw the cover as a commentary on the country's problems.

Despite the controversy, the album was a huge success, selling over 30 million copies worldwide and becoming one of Springsteen's most iconic works. Today, the album cover is often considered a classic example of Springsteen's work and an enduring symbol of American culture.

  • Bob Clearmountain – Sound Engineer Bob Clearmountain has always felt like the secret weapon behind some of the cleanest, punchiest mixes in my collection. His run spans the late-70s magic with Bowie and Roxy Music, the arena-shaking 80s with Springsteen and Bryan Adams, and the polished 90s era with the Stones — always unmistakably his sound.
