Born to run

Born to Run is the third studio album by the American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen. It was released on August 25, 1975, by Columbia Records. Co-produced by Springsteen, his manager Mike Appel, and Jon Landau, the album was Springsteen’s effort to break into the mainstream following the commercial disappointment of his first two albums. Springsteen’s perfectionism led to arduous sessions with the E Street Band; recording sessions lasted from January 1974 to July 1975 in New York City, and six months were spent on the song “Born to Run” alone. Early radio play of “Born to Run” generated anticipation towards the album’s release.
