5.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating story exceedingly well-told
I thoroughly enjoyed Carlin’s book. I read it in one sitting while sitting on the beach down the Shore (where everything was indeed alright) with my family. Very well-written and briskly paced. Even for us diehard fans who have heard the story of the making of Born to Run multiple times, there was new information and deep dives into people and topics that made it more than worth the purchase price for me. I enjoyed it very much.
5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific book
This is an insightful and informative book that beautifully tells the story of how Springsteen created his masterpiece album, Born to Run. As a songwriter, I found it inspiring. Bruce Springsteen worked incredibly hard to create this album. I enjoyed the book.
4.0 out of 5 stars Greate Listen, not enough new info for diehard Springsteen Fans
My rating may not be fair, it is a 5 star audiobook. The issue is that it is a niche book. Who would read a book JUST about the making of a single record besides "real" Springsteen fans who have read a lot about him.I knew much of the info before, so for me (and others who have read a lot of books about Springsteen) it just did not have enough new info. But really is a great story.Ironically probably the best source on the recording of the album is from The Dave Marsh biography of Bruce (https://www.Bolo.com/Born-Run-Bruce-Springsteen-Story/dp/0385154437/ref=sr_1_1?crid=OMBE11HIBYPX&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CNZUX9el2fLpwD94qde_Sg.DUZWyADJJw94hIPxffhOVx04nFdLD3eWXjE6-Yo37CE&dib_tag=se&keywords=born+to+run+dave+marsh&qid=1755671867&sprefix=born+to+run+dave+mar%2Caps%2C453&sr=8-1)

5.0 out of 5 stars Immersive, Insightful, and Pure Rock History
Peter Ames Carlin does it again. Tonight in Jungleland is an excellent account of what was happening with Springsteen, the E Street Band, the Columbia Records execs, and the folks behind the board and in Bruce’s orbit during the making of Born to Run. I’ve read several of Carlin’s other books, and his style is consistently engaging, richly detailed, and always insightful. He has a gift for putting you right in that time and place, making you feel like you’re in the studio or backstage as the story unfolds. If you love Born to Run or Springsteen’s journey, this is a must-read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Strong Stand
Carlin, whose "Bruce" was a better read than Springsteen's autobiography, delivers again with this behind-the-scenes look at an iconic piece of rock music. By digging through video and audio recordings, Carlin literally takes you into the studio with Springsteen and his E Streeters, enabling you to feel Bruce's paranoia and his bandmates' frustrations. There are great stories here told not just by Springsteen, but Jon Landau, an esteemed rock critic who became Bruce's manager; former manager Mike Appel; and mogul Jimmy Iovine, who at the time was nothing more than an assistant engineer. Each song gets its due - turns out Landau played as big a role in writing "Thunder Road" as Springsteen did - and doesn't skimp on detail. A must-read for Springsteen fans.
4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting
Lot’s of musical detail.
Als Fan auf alle Fälle lesen!
Für Fans ein Must-have. Peter Ames Carlin geht wie gewohnt sehr ins Detail. Das Buch ist auch für Nicht-Muttersprachler mit mittleren Sprachkenntnissen gut zu lesen. Mir hat es viel Freude gemacht.
Very Happy
Product is as described and delivery was speedy.
Well written and Insightful
Insightful book. Obviously Mr Ames loves his subject. One glaring error though in first dozen pages. Carole King, Gerry Goffin, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich all worked for Aldon Music and NOT at The Brill Building. Common mistake
