DEF: Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band “War”

Between his highly successful Born In The U.S.A. album that produced seven Top 10 hits and his next album, Tunnel Of Love, which added two more, Bruce Springsteen, along with the E Street Band, released a live album that scored him another. On this date in 1987, that single — Springsteen’s remake of Edwin Starr’s “War” — was in the second week of a three-week run at a peak position of number 8. Today, “War” by Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
