Vinyl Bootleg Index

Yes, I know many of you collectors visiting here, like me, still love and keep considerable interest in old vinyl bootlegs of Springsteen or Brucelegs. Here is the index of blog-featured Bruceleg titles (mostly from the pre-BORN IN THE U.S.A. era) in alphabetical order, with links to blog post(s) where a given title is shown in the image only, mentioned briefly, or described in some detail, along with my thoughts and insights about it. Regarding the collectors' items shown here, this blog is not a place for you to buy these records or look to sell and trade your vinyl collection. Please do not make or post buy/sell/trade comments here or to relevant blog articles. No such words or posts will be opened or responded to by myself. Please also do not ask me for the value of bootlegs, as it is subjective.

      The value of a bootleg is subjective. Please refer to auctions like eBay or databases such as Popsike.
