We Shall Overcome - which was recorded live in Springsteen’s New Jersey home with a fourteen-piece band, including horns, banjo, fiddles, washboard, organ and accordion - is his most jubilant disc since Born in the . Springsteen has always mined a deep vein of Americana, from the obsessed early albums to the Steinbeckian social realism of The Ghost of Tom Joad and last year’s Devils and Dust.

Sound - 10 Bruce Springsteen is a man of great genius as he has shown down through the years with ranging genres of music. Electric to Acoustic and so forth. Next stop for Bruce: Folk. Lyrics - 10 The lyrics in this album are classic cases of folk music. They range from the uplifting never-say-die spirit of "We Shall Overcome" to the storytelling of "John Henry" to the religious side in "Jacob's Ladder" to the plain bizarre in "Froggie Went A Courtin'". This song tells the story of a mouse marrying a frog. Bruce Springsteen actually left out a verse involving the mouse giving birth to "furry little tadpoles". Apparently he wasn't so keen on that concept. The lyrics are compelling and, at times, humorous.
