Five months before Born To Run was released and they were catapulted into the highest ranks of rock n’ roll, Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band performed at the intimate Main Point on Lancaster Avenue in Bryn Mawr, PA. WMMR carried the show live on February 5th, 1975. It was hosted by Ed Sciaky, who accurately predicted in his introduction that Bruce would go on after this show “to conquer America and the world”. The song “Wings For Wheels” was still a work in progress at this point; it would eventually be known as “Thunder Road”. This early version was a highlight of this historical live broadcast.
