Fifteen Springsteen songs never released...

I am a HUGE fan of Bruce fan. Been there since Greeting for Ashbury Park touched down on my turntable way back in 1973.

Here in Cleveland, Kid Leo, an influential disc jockey at one of the countries best progressive radio stations, WMMS got hold of a copy of Born to Run sometime in 1973. Leo would start the weekend at 6:00 Friday night and radio's across the Cleveland ended the work week with people yelling Tramps like us, baby we were Born to Run and every Wooooa Woooa in unison.

You just had to look around at the cars you were stuck in traffic with and see people joined as one pounding their steering wheels...

So I found this on the Rolling Stone Web Site and thought those who are Bruce fans, take a listen....
