Limited edition of 10 (+ 4 APs) signed, numbered handmade palladium prints made by David Michael Kennedy. Image size 22 x 32 inches approx. David Michael Kennedy recalls: "The cover shot was taken from the window of an old pick-up truck in the dead of winter. I was on a road trip, and my girlfriends brother was driving. We were in a super great snow storm and within minutes of this shot the storm hit hard and we were in total white out for hours. I thought that image might be my last! This was in the winter of 1975 and I had just finished a rough couple of months in New York City. I decided to take a road trip and have a bit of Rest and Relaxation. At that time I was doing a lot of fashion and advertising work as well as beginning to shoot covers but I really needed to get back to my roots and just do some images for me. So off on the road I went." "When Bruce was working on The Nebraska album he had an idea for a landscape in mind for the cover. He was working with Andy Klein as the art director on the cover. Andy was familiar with my portraits and she also was aware of my landscape work so she asked me to put together some of my landscapes to show to Bruce. He fell in love with the image (that became the cover) and knew it was right for the cover."

Frank Stefanko recalls the shoot in Haddonfield, NJ during the winter of 1978: "...he arrived in a slick ’60 Corvette. I think that car was his pride and joy. It was loaded, it was sleek, it ruled Route 9 and the New Jersey Turnpike. I imagined what it would be like to be Bruce, cruising in that Vette up the Pike under that giant Exxon sign in the wee, wee hours, thinking up song ideas while listening to his favorite tunes in that bad-ass Corvette.” Please note that this beautiful photograph is now right down to the wire for the limited edition 30x40 inch paper size option. We now have just one left in inventory - artists proof 4/4 - the very last one in the 30x40 size. It is framed and ready to deliver, and looks incredible in this large size.

"I love “Hard Land” as it seems to evoke a scene from an old cowboy movie to me." - Frank Stefanko Our good friend Frank Stefanko has been photographing his good friend Bruce Springsteen for forty years. This is an image from his most recent shoot, in 2017. Frank tells us: "Hard Land was made in a photo-shoot I did with Bruce at his farm at Colts Neck, New Jersey. Bruce granted me the session in April of 2017 and I was thrilled to capture my friend in some relaxed scenes with his Western clothes which caused me to think, perhaps, he was already channeling his vision for his new album, Western Stars. The 2017 shoot brought things full circle to round off what has been forty years of working with Bruce."

David Corio recalls: "This photo of Bruce Springsteen was taken from the audience - I hadn’t got a photo pass but was lucky enough to get a ticket for the show and I managed to get near to the stage at the huge Wembley Arena. Apart from a couple of shows in 1975 this was the first big concert in Europe for ‘The Boss’ as he is affectionately known. He was famous for his energetic sets and this show lasted for three hours and he didn’t stop moving for the entire show. He climbed up onto the speakers, leaped across the stage and pulled girls out from the audience to dance or sing with him. Springsteen supports many social causes, keeps to his working–class roots and speaks out very strongly on political issues. He has donated money to war veterans groups, endorsed Barack Obama early in his political campaign and most recently took part in fund-raising events for Haiti after the earthquake. He still lives in New Jersey where he was born - his 1973 debut album ‘Greetings From Asbury Park’, was named after the run-down sea-side resort where he still occasionally plays the tiny Stone Pony Club (capacity - 775 people) . A contrast to the 137,000 people that were at the Glastonbury festival when he performed in 2009!"
