Bruce Springsteen – Born to Run

Bruce Springsteen’s Born to Run, released by Columbia in August 1975, is the third studio album that fixed the E Street Band’s widescreen sound after Greetings from Asbury Park and The Wild, the Innocent: large-scale arrangements built around Thunder Road, Backstreets and the title track.

It sits at number 21 on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums (2020), reached number 3 on the Billboard 200, and is certified 7× Platinum by the RIAA.

Key tracks include Born to Run, the open-road single; Thunder Road, the side-one opener; and Jungleland, the long closer.
