"Last week, when Nebraska’s Lincoln Journal Star reported that Bruce Springsteen had been spotted in town with a film crew, my heart leaped to the best-case scenario: Maybe he was working on a documentary for a reissue of 1982’s Nebraska, which is due for the archive-digging box set treatment. That beloved solo album had Springsteen blending imagery from his 1950s childhood with stark depictions of the economic divide in Ronald Reagan’s America, coming away with a haunting series of vignettes that seems increasingly relevant today. Nebraska arrived during a fertile period in Springsteen’s career, as he was piecing together his eventual commercial breakthrough, 1984’s Born in the U.S.A. The outtakes are legendary—including a rumored electric version with his loyal E Street Band—and there are also mountains of unreleased songs from this era, like one called “The Klansman,” that clarify his conflicted, and famously misunderstood, stance on American patriotism. So I optimistically imagined him visiting the album’s namesake state to shed light on all of this, offering new insight into an artistic peak."*
