Bruce Springsteen - "Born To Run"

This episode explores Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run," the thunderous 1975 masterpiece that transformed a struggling New Jersey songwriter into rock's great American storyteller. We trace Springsteen's journey from working-class roots to his make-or-break third album, examining how his cinematic vision of escape and transcendence captured America's post-Vietnam anxiety and yearning. From its wall-of-sound production to its street-poet lyrics, "Born to Run" reimagined rock's possibilities while launching one of music's most enduring careers. We also follow Springsteen's evolution from underdog to icon, exploring how he's maintained artistic integrity and cultural relevance across five remarkable decades.
