Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. è il primo album del cantautore statunitense Bruce Springsteen, pubblicato dalla Columbia Records nel 1973.

Pur avendo venduto solo 25 000 copie nel primo anno dalla sua pubblicazione, il disco è stato poi significativamente rivalutato dalla critica e dal pubblico con il crescere della popolarità di Springsteen. Molte canzoni del disco sono divenute dei punti fissi della scaletta dei suoi concerti.

La rivista Rolling Stone l'ha inserito al 379º posto della sua lista dei 500 migliori album nel 2003 e al 37º posto tra i migliori album di debutto nel 2013.

User Album Review
Hailed early on by Columbia producer and talent scout John Hammond as "the new Dylan", Bruce Springsteen has always shared many of the folky, poetic, word-savvy tendencies of his hero and predecessor. Nowhere is this more evident than on Springsteen's debut, GREETINGS FROM ASBURY PARK, NJ, which veritably bursts at the seams with lyrical invention, pell-mell imagery, and acoustic-guitar driven troubadour tunes.
Yet Springsteen trades in on Dylan's pensive and bitter sides for dew-eyed optimism and exuberance. While there is spare, folkie fare like "The Angel" and "Mary Queen Of Arkansas", on which Springsteen sings of his local New Jersey colour in his uniquely passionate voice, there is also something fresh and irrepressible here. A rock & roll heart beats at the centre of GREETINGS, with a spunk and spirit that push the whole affair along.
"It's Hard To Be A Saint In The City" and "Growin' Up" are fueled by David Sancious's rollicking piano, wailing tenor sax, and Springsteen's husky voice. Together these elements defined a James Dean rebel persona and a giant rock & roll ambition that would guide Springsteen's music for the rest of his career.
