Quoted by Matt on February 2 2009:
It was very challenging to try and get that exact 12 minutes. I found that in a funny way it was very freeing. O.K., these are your boundaries, so put everything that you have into just this box. If you do it right, you should feel the tension of it wanting to spread beyond that time frame. But it can’t.

Related: The documentary “Wings for Wheels: The Making of Born to Run” is a fascinating look at the creative process that went into that record. Even if you’re not a huge fan of The Boss, it’s a really compelling film — as good a documentary on making a record as I’ve ever seen.

If you’re not a huge fan of the Boss, you should check to see if you have a pulse coming from your hungry heart.

I was never a Bruce fan UNTIL i saw Wings for Wheels – amazing stuff. I have a new respect for that whole album and Bruce in general.

I couldn’t stand Springsteen in the 80s. I tired quickly of Born in the USA . Now he is one of my favourite artists and I truly believe that the guy is a musical genius as I started listening to his music 6 years ago.
I’ve never seen Wings for Wheels but will definitely seek it out now.
