I don't know if he should be part of the Hoy Trinity. If it was a Holy Octoty he would definitly be there, but Mr. Springsteen is far from a blow hole.

He is a important part of the fabric of American Rock and Roll and his influence is important and manifest itself everywhere. He could rest on just the acomplishment of Born to Run which is a tremendous top ten album. They don't make em or write em laike that any more. Springsteen in the seventies made Rock and Roll fun again. At a time when you had the rebbelious punks on the left and the snobbish album Oriented Rock Gods on the right. Springsteen made it fun to shout and have a good time at a show.

Next time you go to a show and the artist does more than one encore. Thank Springsteen because he set the bar for a live show so high, it made other artist work that much harder.

From 1978-1984 no live act could touch the energy level of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band
