The number 21 might be associated with coming of age - the milestone of maturity, dignity and the ability to hold your beer - but, as anyone will tell you, the above are optional at best.
But Springsteen's 21st album proper, a tribute to leading folkie Pete Seeger, manages the first two whilst soundtracking a drink-sodden ho-down.
A top-notch and super-tight ensemble have been gathered for this rocking, cherry-picking ride through folk classics.
Double bass, violin, piano, accordion, harmonica, banjo and brass are expertly marshalled to give the impression of ramshackle get-together with mates, yet remain pin-sharp.
But it's Springsteen's trademark growl that imbues it with a timeless, fiery soul.
