Your brother...someone needs to get to him. I do like The Rising but not as much as Radio Nowhere, which when last I saw Bruce, he made me weep with that one. And truly, I have a hard time listening to born in the USA anymore. I have my old copy, but it's still in the basement. My music room is exploding like your head, and as someone in a movie once said, "I've pared it down to just the essentials."
