- It was a full house but you could’ve heard a pin drop! The people of Ottawa at Live! on Elgin were sooooo awesome! The Last of the Duke Street Kings were gracious enough to allow me to warm up their fans :)

@@tonyglen33 thank you Tony I appreciate it. Are you on Instagram as well ?
@@tonyglen33 I found you on IG 👍.
I wrote the lyrics to this when I was in high school. Bruce was recording at Sky Blue studios in Sonoma California.
The 69 Chevy was originally a 396 Ss 4 speed car that belonged to Harry Maglin. When Harry had it he had a 427 in it. Harry sold it to Kevin Johnson and Slim with a tired 396. Kevin and Slim took out the big block and put a small block and an automatic in it.
Fueling heads weren't an option on the big block. The guy in the Camaro is Joe Morich. The girl is Becky Icough. The track is Sears Point raceway in California. Kevin and Sim eventually sold the Chevelle to a black guy from Oakland who rolled it on an on-ramp over by Vallejo.
The song is based on Dancing In The Streets by Martha and the Vandellas. The storyline was inspired by Twp Lane Blacktop which starred James Taylor. The girl who stars out into space and hates forl being born that was Shannon Johnson. I provided the lyrics to Bruce Springsteen in 1975.
Bruce promised to pay me if he used them depending on how good they were. I guess Bruce just forgot about his promise or willfully welched on his agreement. I only had the lyrics I didn't do the music.
Bruce if you read this find me I live in Glen Ellen California.
I'm still proud of the song.
I just need some money for retirement. Take care and be well.
Maybe you should reach out to him. He seems like a generous person. Cheers!
