Clarence Clemons i The E Street Band

Od samego początku Clarence Clemons był filarem i ikoną The E Street Band...

Tak Boss mówił o swoim zespole (wypowiedzi z 1999 r.):

• Roy Bittan - Roy's playing formed the signature sound of some of my greatest records. He can play anything. He's always there for me.
• Clarence Clemons - ... has been a source of myth and light and enormous strength for me on stage. He has filled my heart so many nights. (...) Together we told a story of the possibilities of friendship...
• Danny Federici - ... the most instinctive and natural musician I ever met and the only member of the band who can reduce me to a shouting mess".
• Nils Lofgren - ... the most overqualified second guitarist in the show business. He plays 10 times better than me and he still wanders over to hear my solos when I play. I guess he's checking to see if I'm getting any better.
• Patti Scialfa - She's busted the boy's club, big time. Oh... I went like this: "Ok fellas. There's gonna be a woman in the band. (...) How complicated can it get?".
• Garry W. Tallent - Southern man, my lovely friend, (bas)s player, rock 'n' roll aficionado, whose quiet and dignity graced my band and my life.
• Max Weinberg - Mighty Max (...) found a place where Bernard Purdie, Buddy Rich, and Keith Moon intersected and he made it his own. I ask and he delivers for me night after night.
• Steve Van Zandt (He's a lifetime rock 'n' roll friendship. We did it all, you know. Great songwriter, producer, great guitarrist.
