Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J. (Japan, 1999 picture disc reissue)

~ Release by Bruce Springsteen (see all versions of this release, 122 available)

Annotation

Picture disc in standard jewel case, with same catalogue number as the 1999 cardboard packaging reissue. This is part of a series that consists of Bruce Springsteen's first five albums. The spines of the obi strips from this series, when arranged vertically in order or release, form part of a black-and-white image from around 1979 depicting three E Street Band members (Max Weinberg, Danny Federici and Steve Van Zandt) sitting on a bench in Central Park. The image remains incomplete due to the series being discontinued after the fifth album.
