I ruminate on Bruce Springsteen as an artist. How the image from his most commercially successful time-period can become a generalization to those unfamiliar with the depth of his work. Along with my deep admiration for his song 'American Skin.' I discuss his memoir 'Born to Run' and discuss concert experiences in the context of his electrifying performing style.

As a guitar player he’s influenced by the progressions of John Lennon and George Harrison. The lyrics to his song Aurora were published in the March 2017 issue of American Songwriter Magazine.
