Springsteen's latest "Wrecking Ball" album is very much in keeping Latin American protest music, with songs such as "Shackled and Drawn" blaming bankers and corporate executives for ruining the U.S. economy, and he's been summoning kindred spirits during his tour of Chile, Argentina and Brazil. In Santiago, he eulogized folk singer Victor Jara, who was killed during the 1973 coup there, and sang Jara's "Manifesto." Springsteen next performs in Sao Paulo on Wednesday and Rio de Janeiro on Saturday.
