Summary
This month marks Bruce Springsteen’s 54th anniversary with Columbia Records. It’s an amazing feat. There aren’t many artists who can boast of starting on a major label and staying there throughout a legendary career. But the man who would become the Boss had a shaky start, and John Hammond’s decision to sign him seemed like a musical version of Seward’s folly during his first three years. In his latest article for the Strange Brew, author Scott G. Shea tells the amazing story of how it all came about.
