Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band would not be if not for Elvis Presley's momentous appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. A young Bruce watched this performance when a mere seven years old and decided to pursue a rock and roll life style. He took up the guitar as a teenager and began playing clubs in New Jersey and New York. By the 1960s he had become known as "The Boss" and had started performing with the first of the E Street Band. Bruce Springsteen officially hooked up with the E Street Band in 1972, after Springsteen had signed with Columbia Records.

The E Street Band brought many of his former band mates together. Clarence Clemons played saxophone, Danny Federici played the organ and accordion, Vini Lopez played drums, and Garry Tallent played bass. The lineup would change over the years, but this first group played with Bruce to record Bruce Springsteen's first platinum album, Greeting from Asbury Park, NJ. This first album put Bruce's songs display, introducing the world to the man and his incredible lyrics romanticizing the life and struggle of the blue collar family.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band would become one of the biggest rock bands in the world. Born to Run proved to be a breakout album, going six-time platinum and reaching number three in the United States. They scored a few more hits in the 1970s, including "Badlands" and "Hungry Heart". The 1980s became the biggest decade for the group. Born in the U.S.A. yielded seven Top Ten singles. "Dancing in the Dark", "Glory Days", and "My Hometown" led the list of songs from a diamond album.

Any band that has lasted nearly four decades endures a popularity that ebbs and flows. The low point for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band came in the 1990s. The world had embraced grunge and alternative rock, but Bruce Springsteen concert tickets kept on selling obscenely well for the tours and the band would return to the forefront of the rock scene in the latter half of the first decade of the 21st century. Magic and Working on a Dream were two number one albums and the first platinum-certified albums in over five years.
