TONIGHT IN JUNGLELAND The Making of Born to Run

More than 50 years ago, Bruce Springsteen set out to make an album--not just any album, one that had to be just right, perfect rock and roll. Through that diligence, attention to detail, collaboration, and long days and nights, the seminal BORN TO RUN album was created. Peter Ames Carlin narrates his own work, and he does it well, song by song. Through clear enunciation and solid reporting, he captures the blood, sweat, and tears that went on behind the scenes. He doesn't imitate anyone's speech but always gets across the emotions of those involved. The result is a fascinating listen for anyone who appreciates great music, great writing and, of course, Springsteen. M.B. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2025]
