One Hit Wonder
So, anyone watch this yet? Your thoughts?
I must start by admitting I’m a Jersey guy. That said, I’ve never been much of a Springsteen fan. I saw him at the local haunts well before he became famous. He was obviously talented even when he was a nobody. In fact, i liked his song material better then, than after he’d “made it.”
All of that said, this show is pretty good. He has always been great at holding an audience. Surprisingly, to me at least, the music is the weakest part of it. It’s mostly stripped down versions of his songs. Maybe if I was more familiar with his material, or maybe if I liked the songs better, I might appreciate it more. But there is more dialog than songs, and that is its strong suit.
I found it pretty entertaining. What was your take?
Edit: should I have mentioned it’s available on Netflix?
