I have just started to listen to this book. I am reminded of my reaction to Springsteen's autobiography -- how is it that these gentlemen are such amazing writers, painting images in my mind through their words?

Then I realize at their core, these gentlemen ARE writers, and I have listened to their words most of my adult life. They describe their feelings with such interesting and specific words while they are able to describe a scene using such adjectives and adverbs that bring the words alive.

Their use of words leaves me thinking only one -- wow.
