Bruce Springsteen marks 50th anniversary for live debut of 'Born to Run' Sunday

American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen , UK, 18th November 1975. Exactly 50 years ago Sunday, Bruce Springsteen sang about "sweating it out on the streets of a runaway American dream" forThe song would become the calling card for "The Boss," as well as the title of his memoir and almost the "unofficial state youth anthem" for his native New Jersey -- a resolution passed the state House but failed in the Senate.

In the 2005 documentary "Wings for Wheels" which looked back at the making of the album and single, Springsteen describes wanting to make a song that sounded like "Roy Orbison singing Bob Dylan playing guitar like Duane Eddy, all produced by Phil Spector." “We knew nothing about , but it was a beautiful, balmy April afternoon, and a free show, so we went,” he says. “And from the instant the band took the stage, we knew we were experiencing a show unlike any we’d ever seen.”
