(More customer reviews)The Promise: The Making Of Darkness On The Edge Of Town was originally included as part of the Darkness On The Edge Of Town deluxe edition that was released in November '10. If you bought that set, then there is no need to pick up this dvd. But if you didn't plunk down the $100. for that superb set or don't have HBO (where this film also aired), then this dvd is a nice alternative. The film itself is first rate. It takes you right into the recording studio and you get a real feel and of how the Darkness album was made. It shows the all the frustration and pressure the band felt trying to follow-up the Born To Run album. Mr. Springsteen expresses his concerns about being a one-hit wonder at the time and trying to produce an album with substance and grit. There is also some rehearsal footage showing a shirtless Mr. Springsteen with a mountain of hair that is quite striking compared to his other public personas. This film does everything it should, show you the creative process of making an album, talk to all the key participants (band members, engineer Jimmy Iovine, etc.) and give you insight into the artists thoughts and moods.
