Summary

A look at the American singer-songwriter's unique relationship with the UK, telling the story of his first European gig, when he and his E Street Band arrived for a sold-out performance at London's Hammersmith Odeon in November 1975 to promote his Born to Run album. In an interview recorded for this programme, Springsteen reveals how he was so disappointed by his own performance that night that he couldn't watch the footage back for more than 30 years, while fans recount how hearing - and meeting - Springsteen changed their lives
