FROM BBC COLLECTIVE REVIEW OF THE PROUD GALLERIES SHOW Bruce Springsteen:
The Boss Revealed:
Jim Marchese’s
contributions are out-standing; it is one of these that adorns the monochrome
poster for the exhibition, depicting a youthful pensive Springsteen sitting
in an empty arena during a pre-show sound check in Brussels. Marchese has a
distinctive style, often using a large aperture to give a tight focus on the
subject dissolving into a softer and more impressionistic background. Another
such intimate photo shows Springsteen in Paris, bathed in soft late afternoon
sunlight as if through stained glass – another empty arena; another rehearsal
- the faithful Fender-Esquire slung from his shoulders, his face almost entirely
hidden as he pauses to rub his tired eyes with both hands in a gesture that
is disarmingly child-like and touching. The picture is almost luminous in quality
and benefits from being reproduced in full colour.

"GREETINGS FROM E STREET: THE STORY OF BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN
AND THE E STREET BAND” by
ROBERT SANTELLI
featuring photographs
by JIM MARCHESE
Greetings from E Street, by Robert Santelli, is the first and only collective
biography of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band written with participation
from its members by a long-time intimate. In an illustrated interactive format,
it celebrates the life and work of one of the world's best-loved bands. Over
200 photos, documents, handwritten notes, and souvenirs join tour stories, reminiscences,
and little-known facts to give readers a full picture of one of the most iconic
bands, and musicians, in American rock music.
Rock journalist Bob Santelli begins the tale in 1960s New Jersey with the teen
bands whose members--such as Danny Federici--would go on to work with Bruce,
and illuminates milestones such as the founding of the band in 1972 (bringing
in members such as Clarence Clemons and Garry Tallent), their first taste of
superstardom with Born to Run in 1975 (with Max Weinberg and Roy Bittan now
on board), their worldwide hit Born in the USA in 1984 (and a sold-out tour
featuring Nils Lofgren, and Patti Scialfa), and their marathon tour of 1999-2000
(now with Steve van Zandt and Soozie Tyrell). Packed with rare and never-before-seen
mementos and new stories, Greetings from E Street is a must for fans of Bruce
Springsteen and the E Street Band.
Greetings from E Street is published by Chronicle Books.
