Celebrate the 50th anniversary of Bruce Springsteen's masterpiece of American rock 'n' roll with this handsomely produced and stunningly illustrated volume.

Bruce Springsteen and Born to Run: 50 Years is the definitive story of a landmark album in American rock music. In 1975, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band released what would become their breakthrough album and arguably the most lauded album of Springsteen's long, illustrious career. Born to Run has sold over 9 million copies and counting and continues to inspire musicians and music fans young and old from around the world.

In this book, music journalist Sean Egan takes a deep dive into one of the legendary musician's most famous albums on its 50th anniversary. Chapters cover Springsteen's career prior to 1975, track-by-track analyses of each side, the studios where it was recorded, the supporting tour, and The Boss's career after the LP. Illustrated with performance and off-stage photography as well as memorabilia, the book is presented as a slipcased hardcover.

Springsteen fans new and old can expect:

  • A deep dive into how the album came together and why it is regarded as a masterpiece
  • Track-by-track analyses of the studio cut as well as insight into the many disregarded tracks and ideas leading up to its recording
  • Historical insight and analysis about the state of rock in the mid-'70s and how Springsteen assembled a wildly talented group of musicians in the E Street Band
  • The story of the battle between Springsteen and Columbia Records after his previous albums failed to ignite the public's passion
  • And much, much more
