A-Z of names in Rock #1

The book by Mark Beech A-Z of names in rock has given me some inspiration for a "thread" of occasional clips of the origins of Rock Names.

Where to start but with The Boss himself,
Bruce Springsteen. Or more specifically the E Street Band. I knew E Street was in Asbury Park but didn't realise the full derivation.

David Sancious who was the original keyboard player (up to 1974) lived in E Street and the band rehearsed there in the garage. David has a superb CV working solo and with many great artists, especially Peter Gabriel and Springsteen at various points in his career.

So it all adds to the legend of a legendary band!

The E Street Band with Darlene Love:



The E Street Band with Ronnie Spector, the more observant will notice this is a Billy Joel cover:
