Goodbye Danny. You will be missed by hundreds of thousands of people. The Boardwalk is a little darker today.
Pardon the cliche, but pictures (or videos) are worth a thousand more words than I could muster up about how much Springsteen and the E Street Band's music has meant to me the past 25 years, or how much love everyone in that band felt for Danny.
Here's video of the 1975 Hammersmith Odeon performance I linked to:
The last time Danny played it with his dear friends, in Indianapolis on March 20th:
Bonus: The scene when Danny left the band last fall in Boston:
A great clip of the entire band watching Danny solo on "Kitty's Back" that night.
Because I can never watch this clip enough, the best "Kitty's Back" since the 1970s, from Late Night with Conan O'Brien.
And finally, watch this 1978 clip at about 8 minutes in. Danny does a blistering solo on "Prove It All Night." Wow.
