This is a week of massive anniversaries. Here is today’s.

On August 25th 1975 Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band released an album called Born to Run. I can’t remember when I first heard any of it, but I do knew that I have loved Bruce’s music from that moment on. 40 years. That’s some relationship.

To mark the occasion, here is my all time favorite rock song, which also happens to be the opening track of the album.

Show a little faith, there’s magic in the night
You ain’t a beauty but, hey, you’re alright
Oh, and that’s alright with me

Story of my life. I’m still waiting, Bruce. If I hear your Chevy pull up outside, I’ll be straight out.
