Born To Run Bruce Springsteen - Story Behind The Song

[@chriskelly1890]

I was a Springsteen fanatic by 1973 in Maryland and in 1975 our local radio station WHFS announced that Springsteen was soon releasing a new album. Working one night at the ice cream parlor, with music pumped into the back where me made homemade whipped cream, the most beautiful sounds I had ever heard came across the speakers. It was Born to Run. The song is still for me the greatest song ever.

I still remember hearing the song for the first time in 1975, at a friend's place, after school. I was blown away by the force of the song and the lyrics. The desperation in his voice, begging Wendy to run away with him. For me, this is still his best song, leaving everything else he created lightyears behind. An amazing peace of Americana that stands out with all of its surprising twists and turns.

Amazing story behind this iconic song, especially the effort and time it took to release it. Well done Jim.

I guess an "advisor" is a Psychiatrist in many ways. Born to Run gives me chills.

Like The Beatles, there will never be another like Bruce.

The glockenspeil is actually an electric keyboard with metal pipes. You can see it on top of Federici's organ in a lot of the stuff from that time.
