On this episode of Let There Be Talk, my guest is Peter Ames Carlin author of Tonight in Jungleland: The Making of Born to Run.

We dive deep into the stories behind Bruce Springsteen’s legendary 1975 album, exploring the grit, inspiration, and raw creativity that brought Born to Run to life.

From the E Street Band’s relentless rehearsals to the studio struggles and triumphs, this conversation sheds new light on the making of one of rock and roll’s most iconic records.

The book is out write now as well as some other books Peter has written including Bruce Springsteen's Autobiography "Bruce"

If you know me, you know how much I love Springsteen, so this was a real treat. 

Thanks for tuning my friends
