Correction
Due to a misprint in the Give 'em Hell
Harry review yesterday in the entertain
ment section, a paragraph was deleted
which made the story incomplete.
The review should have read:
This is the main problem with the film
it doesn't show the real Truman. It does,
however, .provide an overview ofTruman's
presidential accomplishments in a more
amusing ' and interesting way than the
history books ever will.
For that reason, and because of Whit
more 's great performance, Give 'em Hell
Harry is a film not to be missed.
The Fleetwood Mac story also con-
Bruce Springsteen
tained two errors. The vocalist and guitar
ist in the group identified as Danny Kirwan
should have been identified as Lindsay
Buckingham. Kirwan left the group about
three years ago.
Jeremy Spencer was incorrectly identi
fied as an organist. He is a blues guitarist.
Spencer left Fleetwood Mac in 1971 and
now is an active member of Children of
God. He was not present at the concert.
The members of the group at the
concert were Christine McVie, John McVie,
Mick Fleetwood, Lindsay Buckingham and
Stephanie Nicks.

Bruce SpringsSeenom to RunColwar
tuS6.93
After hearing this album, I did some
thing unusual (for me) I made a bet It
wasn't as if I were risking my shirt (or even
worse, this album), just dinner at Mac
Donald's.
Anyway, here are my predictions con
cerning this album. If I'm right, I win a
Big Mac. (1) This album will be included in
the Best Album of the Year list of at least
two music publications, (2) Springsteen
will appear on the cover of the Rolling
Stone before the end of the year and (3) he
will be hailed as the spokesman for the
70s, joining the Stones, Bob Dylan and
Elton John in representing the epitome of
rock tradition.
"Who is this guy, anyway?" you might
ask. Fair question. Springsteen, a compos
erguitaristvocalist, is from New Jersey
and has a devoted following, especially in
New York. His second album-77ie Wild, ,
the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle-wzs
a Rolling Stone's Best of the Year selection
last year. Bom to Run, Springsteen's third
alburn, is even better. Through his music,
Springsteen creates his own world, his own
characters, his own symbols. The gulf be
tween his world and the UN L environment
(Big Red, Monday night fraternity suppers)
is as great as the distance between earth
and Alpha Centauri. His is the world of the
street punk. He is the guy who gains his
wisdom by fighting for survival. And he
knows more about life than any Phi Beta
Kappa Harvard graduate ever will.
Dave Marsh of Rolling Stone compared
Springsteen's music to an "American
Quadrophenia."
"But Springsteen doesn't write rock
opera," he said. "He lives it."
Man, there's an opera out on the
Turnpike
There's a ballet being fought out
in the alley
Until the local cops
Cherry tops
Rips this noly night. . .

By Deb Gray
Muneiand (Brace Springsteen)
Springsteen is a living example of one of
the universal themes in literature the fame
force that creates, that gives us life, can
also destroy. Out in the streets "it's where
all the fun is," he says. It's what life is all
about. The streets-where "kids flash their
guitars just like switch-blades' and "the
hungry and the huntedExplode into
rock n roll bands"-also gave Springsteen
his art. But he waifts to get out, before he
gets sucked into this heilbroth so far he
can't escape.
Baby this town rips the hones for your
back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
. We gotta get out while we're young
Cause tramps like us, baby we were bora
to run.
"Bom to Run", will probably be men
tioned in some university rock history class
20 years from now. Not only is it exciting
music, it captures the 70s feeling of frus
tration, of longing to escape to a freer
life, in the same way that "Bom to Be
Wild" and "Gimme Shelter" captured the
'60s spirit of revolution.
This emphasis on Springsteen's lyrics
should not make anyone think that the
music isn't good. The band is phenom-enonal-a
synthesis of everything good
that's happened in music for the last 10
yean. Clarence Clemons is easy to single
out for praise because he solos a lot, but
the whole outfit is great: tight, controlled
and exciting.
Is there any hope for the senseless kill
ings and the apathy that Springsteen talks
about? Only the poets, who portray the
honor and inhumanity of the ghetto so
that society realizes that the dark and venal
exists not only in Harlem, but in every
one's lives. But the poets are no salvation.
The most obvious exception to this
indictment is Springsteen himself. '
