Man, a huge loss to Bruce and his band. I remember seeing Danny with Bruce at the first Bridge show, back in '86, playing accordion. One of his stalwart accompanists, it was often hard to pick out his contribution, but he was a key component to the E Street sound (that ringing belllike sound on a lot of the 70s records? That was Danny).
