180g Vinyl Remastered from Original Source Tapes by Bob Ludwig!
Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 21/500!
Born to Run is the third studio album by the American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen. It was released on August 25, 1975 through Columbia Records. It was make or break time for Bruce when his third album was released; fortunately, he delivered an album that established him as the voice of a generation and one of the strongest acts in American rock and roll. Born To Run joined together Bruces evocative lyrical gifts, grandiose arrangements that recalled Phil Spectors Wall of Sound, and the shaggy jam-band prowess of his live ensemble, The E Street Band (now featuring the talents of additional pianist Roy Bittan, drummer Max Weinberg and Springsteens longtime musical partner Steven Van Zandt).
The result: an album that almost immediately became a Top 5 smash, earning Springsteen cover stories in Time and Newsweek in the same week and resting atop scores of greatest-albums-of-all-time-lists, from Rolling Stone to VH1.
"Layers of guitar, layers of echo on the vocals, lots of keyboards, thunderous drums -- Born to Run had a big sound, and Springsteen wrote big songs to match it....Born to Run was an intentional masterpiece. It declared its own greatness with songs and a sound that lived up to Springsteen's promise..." -William Ruhlman, allmusic.com
