I rarely make viewing recommendations, however I just watched #HowardStern HBO interview of #BruceSprinsteen and while I'm no expert of Bruce Springsteen's catalog, I would say that anyone who enjoys #Music and #SongWriting will enjoy this!💯

It is a 2+ hour long program, however as anyone who's been to a Springsteen concert knows, it's time well spent!🎸🎷🎶
