In the season six finale, Kirk takes a deep dive into Bruce Springsteen's signature song, 1975's "Born to Run." It's all here: tremolo guitar riffs, glockenspiel arpeggios, endless sus chords, and a sax solo for the ages. Baby, we were born for it.
Written by: Bruce Springsteen
Produced by: Springsteen, John Landau, and Mike Appel
Album: Born to Run, 1975
