The Born in the U.S.A. 12" Single Collection is a box set of 12" singles from the album Born in the U.S.A. by rock artist Bruce Springsteen. It was released in the UK in 1985 courtesy of CBS Records to help promote the Born in the U.S.A. album. It originally came with a poster of Springsteen and a bonus 7" single previously unreleased in the UK. It contains all the singles from Born in the U.S.A. except for " My Hometown" and " Born in the U.S.A." (However "Born in the U.S.A. the Freedom Mix" appeared as one of the b-sides to "I'm on Fire".) All songs written by Springsteen and mixed by Bob Clearmountain except where noted. [1]

The Born in the U.S.A. 12" Single Collection retrospectively received four and a half stars out of five from William Ruhlmann of Allmusic. He said that "The remixes were trendy at the time -- even Bob Dylan employed remixer Arthur Baker (who also served here) in the mid '80s -- though they now sound like curiosities. But the B-sides are nearly the equal of some of the released tracks on Born in the U.S.A., and the addition of songs like "Rosalita" make this box a comprehensive sampler of Springsteen's work up to 1985. The only problem is that you have to keep getting up and changing the records." [3]
