Summary: Not just for Springsteen Fanatics
Review: Bruce Springsteen is generally acknowledged to be the best performer in the history of rock. His 1978 tour, in support of Darkness on the Edge of Town, was, according to his closest fans, the best tour of his career. These photographs, taken by Springsteen's close friend and award-winning photographer, Lynn Goldsmith, capture that tour as good as any bootleg tape. This book is not just for Springsteen fanatics, but for all those who enjoy the power, the magic, the mystery and the ministry of rock and roll.

Summary: Lynn captures Bruce's soul!
Review: I have always Lynn's loved photographs of Bruce and I always knew when I looked at a picture that she had taken it. She always captured his inner soul I think and showed how intense a man he was and is. Lynn, I just want to thank you for your great pictures that I had plastered all over my walls as a teenager in the seventies. I listened to a lot of bootlegs from the darkness era and looked at your pictures as I did. Enjoy the journey.

Summary: A SPECIAL TIME...
Review: I just recieved "Access All Areas" today, and let me be the first to say, this is a MUST HAVE for all Bruce fans. Being a major Bruce Fan, and coming off the Meadowlands shows last summer, (I was at six of them)I always wondered what it must have been to seen Bruce and the band back then. Well I don't have to wonder anymore. "Darkness" has always been my favorite album, and this book shows why those shows are so legendary 21 yrs. later. For all you "Darkness" fans out there this book is for you.

Summary: Golsmith captures historic Springsteen tour
Review: Lynn Goldsmith's photography from Bruce's '78 tour is simply some of the best concert work ever put to film. Getting to know the artist and work behind the scenes with the E Street Band, during one of the most important eras of rock and roll, makes this book a must for anyone interested in music, Bruce or photography in general. Simply a masterful, soulful piece of artwork. Each photo tells its own story. It's just too bad we had to wait so long for the book!

Summary: The Boss in '78
Review: Lynn Goldsmith's Springsteen Access All Areas is a photodiary of his 1978 Darkness On The Edge Of Town tour. The photos are all in black and white and they perfectly capture the spirit of Bruce Springsteen. Ms. Goldsmith was Mr. Springsteen's girlfriend at the time and she uses that cache to give us glimpses of the man and his band that other photographers may never have been able to get. For those of you old enough to remember or even attend a show at the tour, this book will bring you back to that time and for those of us who were too young to know, it provides us with a look at an artist establishing himself as an icon.

Summary: Springsteen Access All Areas--great record of 1978 Tour
Review: Springsteen Access All Areas is a must have for the serious Springsteen fan, as a photo document of the 1978 tour, still widely believed by many fans to be the pennultimate tour of Bruce's career. There's also appeal here to the less devoted. While the hard core fans, and Backstreets subscribers may have seen a number of these photos before, many others will be unfamiliar with these, and thus will get a great look into the life of this fantastic tour. Recommended by this long time fan.
