fWotD Episode 2641: Darkness on the Edge of Town Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 28 July 2024 is Darkness on the Edge of Town.Darkness on the Edge of Town is the fourth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen, released on June 2, 1978, by Columbia Records. The album was recorded after a series of legal disputes between Springsteen and his former manager Mike Appel, during sessions in New York City with the E Street Band from June 1977 to March 1978. Springsteen and Jon Landau co-produced, with assistance from bandmate Steven Van Zandt.For the album's lyrics and music, Springsteen took inspiration from sources as diverse as John Steinbeck novels, John Ford films, punk rock, and country music. Musically, the album strips the Wall of Sound production of its predecessor, Born to Run, for a rawer hard rock sound emphasizing the band as a whole. The lyrics on Darkness focus on ill-fortuned characters who fight back against overwhelming odds. Compared to Springsteen's previous records, the characters are older and the songs are less tied to the Jersey Shore area. The cover photograph of Springsteen was taken by Frank Stefanko in his New Jersey home.Released three years after Born to Run, Darkness did not sell as well as its predecessor but reached number five in the US, while its singles—"Prove It All Night", "Badlands", and "The Promised Land"—performed modestly. Springsteen promoted the album on the Darkness Tour, his largest tour up to that point. Upon release, critics praised the album's music and performances but were divided on the lyrical content. It placed on several critics' lists ranking the best albums of the year.In later decades, Darkness has attracted acclaim as one of Springsteen's best works and one that anticipated later records. It has since appeared on various professional lists of the greatest albums of all time. Outtakes from the recording sessions were given to other artists, held-over for Springsteen's next album, The River, or later released on compilations. Darkness was reissued in 2010, accompanied by a documentary detailing the album's making.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:03 UTC on Sunday, 28 July 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Darkness on the Edge of Town on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Joanna.
In which James and Kit are joined by drummer (in Kit's new band, no less) friend of the show and lifelong Bruce fan John Busvine, to discuss The Boss's seminal 1978 studio album Darkness On The Edge Of Town. For John, it's a conversation over 30 years in the making, and it's a privilege to get his perspective on an album that's formed part of the soundtrack of his life. Enjoy :)
Welcome. My guest this episode is artist and photographer Lynn Goldsmith. Her career as a photographer has brought her into the orbit of rock n roll legends like Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, and notably Bruce Springsteen with whom she had a romantic relationship in the 70s as he was still working his way up, with his blistering live shows, and the relentlessly determined creative drive which produced the album Darkness On The Edge Of Town. Her document of this era forms the basis of a new coffee table book published by Taschen entitled “Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Darkness on the Edge of Town”. She's had an incredible life: working with Elektra Records in the late 60s, co-managing Grand Funk Railroad in the early 70s, and releasing music under the name of Will Powers in the early 80s. She's also worked in other mediums of art and her photographs have graced album and magazine covers. Lynn joined me from Nashville to talk about her new book and her career in general. We had a great chat. Hope you enjoy it. Instagram: @sendingsignalspodcastX: @signalspodcast

Swamp Thing 2019 Episode 4 Darkness On The Edge Of Town by Swamp Things I Hate About You
In this episode I chat with Adam Christopher about fanfic, discipline and making a career out of writing both original fiction and stories in existing universes. Adam tells me how he got into writing partly through his love of Doctor Who, and a fandom full of novelisations. He shares his initial overconfidence and how he worked through setbacks to forge a career writing in various universes, such as Star Wars, Elementary and most recently Stranger Things. He explains the process of pitching and negotiating with the creators of a show, the differences between writing original work and licensed novels, and how he uses routines to keep going and get his work done. This is a great episode to listen to if you want to know: - how can I write novelisations of existing TV shows, films or video games? - what's the process for pitching and writing a licensed novel? - how can I keep writing on bad days? - how can I plan my novel and still be creative? Adam Christopher's latest book is an official Stranger Things novel, DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN: https://wordery.com/stranger-things-darkness-on-the-edge-of-town-adam-christopher-9781780899985#oid=1908_1 His website is: http://www.adamchristopher.co.uk/ If you'd like to support me, it'd be ace if you picked up a copy of my novels, THE HONOURS, & the new sequel THE ICE HOUSE.

Pat and Kyle welcome Comedian Bobby Tessel to the show to discuss his favorite artist Bruce Springsteen and the music he released in the 70's.
Our Bruce Springsteen series continues with Julien Baker, a wonderful artist whose 2017 album "Turn Out The Lights" was one of my favorite LPs of that year. Even though she was born almost 20 years after it was released in 1978, Baker is a huge fan of the angry, musically ferocious "Darkness On The Edge Of Town," which spawned Springsteen classics like "Badlands," "Racing in the Streets," and "Prove It All Night."
Continuing our focus on the Darkness On The Edge Of Town album, BJ Kramp and Brian Sword join me to further discuss the album, the tour, the boxset, The Promise album of previously unreleased tunes and more.

There’s a famous quote in the rock and roll world, “I have seen rock and roll future, and its name is Bruce Springsteen.” Credited to journalist John Landau, who would later become Springsteen’s manager, and few at that time could have had any idea just how right he would be. You see, the year was 1974, and a young Springsteen had already released 2 killer albums in “Greetings From Asbury Park” and “The Wild, The Innocent And The E Street Shuffle”, but what would come next, would revolutionize the rock and roll world, with albums like “Darkness On The Edge Of Town” and “Born To Run.” My guests on today’s show, might just have more in common with Springsteen then you might think. They’ve both already had some really great races, but they’re both at an age, and both working at such a rate, that you know the future is going to be really special. Trevor Hofbauer and Brandon Lord are on this week's episode of The Terminal Mile.
