When You Have the Best Band

There is a line in the movie “The Blues Brothers” where the late Donald “Duck” Dunn says, in his great southern drawl, “… Jake’s’ not lyin’, we had a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline.” I’ve always loved that line. In 1975 Bruce Springsteen played the Hammersmith Odeon in London. He had that kind of band…

I have never gotten to see Springsteen, placing him on my list of “Bands that got away”. But I always heard he put on a helluva show.
