Elvis Presley is all there is. There just ain't no more. Everything starts and ends with Elvis. He wrote the book. He is everything to do and not to do in the music business.
Bruce Springsteen

It was like Elvis came along and whispered some dream in everybody's ear
Bruce Springsteen
Image
I realized the only time I felt complete and peaceful was while I was playing or shortly afterwards, even though it was in front of thousands of other people, which most people wouldn't consider to be a safe place.
Bruce Springsteen
