En plus du coffret Tracks II, on commence à entendre des échos pour le cinquantième anniversaire de Born To Run en août prochain.

Dans son communiqué de fin d'année, Jon Landau avait spécifiquement mentionné cette date anniversaire.

Il y a quelques jours, Max confiait qu'on pourrait bientôt voir des images du concert du Bottom Line (captées en vidéo par Barry Rebo).

Je ne serai pas surpris plus que ça si août/septembre étaient un peu agités (une poignée de concerts?).

 

La BBC va diffuser un documentaire sur les 50 ans du premier passage à Londres.

 

Peter Ames Carlin va lui publier un bouquin sur la génèse de l'album.

A fascinating behind-the-scenes account of the making of Bruce Springsteen's ground-breaking album, Born to Run - one of the most iconic records in rock history - Tonight in Jungleland combines lush music writing with unprecedented inside access to Springsteen, his bandmates, and the full story behind every song... and coincides with the album's 50th anniversary in August 2025.

From the opening piano notes of "Thunder Road," to the final outro of "Jungleland" - with American anthems like "Born to Run" and "Tenth Avenue Freeze Out" in between - Bruce Springsteen's seminal album, Born to Run, established Springsteen as a creative force in rock and roll. With his back against the wall, he wrote what has been hailed as a perfect album, a defining moment, and a roadmap for what would become a legendary career.

Peter Ames Carlin, whose bestselling biography, Bruce, gave him rare access to Springsteen's inner circle, now returns with the full story of the making of this epic album. Released in August, 1975, Born to Run now celebrates its 50th anniversary. Carlin reveals a treasure trove of untold stories, detailing the writing and recording of every song, as well as the intense and at times tortuous process that mimicked the fault lines in Springsteen's psyche and career, even as it revealed the depth of his vision. A must-read for any music fan, Tonight in Jungleland takes us inside a hallowed creative process and lets us experience history.
