If you haven’t seen this documentary yet, watch it. I’ve never been a die-hard Springsteen fan but this is an incredible tale of artistry and it’s hard to imagine anyone who is either a listener or involved in the creative process not appreciating what they did. It’s a story of how magic comes from balancing visionary and obsession, friendship and oppression, cooperation and standing your ground.
I watched it on a plane but I’m told you can find it on cable, rent it from Netflix, buy the DVD from Amazon, or get it inside the Darkness on The Edge of Town box set.
