Let The Day Begin...Let The Day Start!: Day 211 Patti Scialfa

Happy Birthday

Patti Scialfa

 Born On This Day

In 1953

I thought I'd dig out for today Patti's Debut Album Rumble Doll for your listening pleasure.

Patti is well known as Mrs Springsteen and a Member (though not regular) of The E Street Band and has been part of that since she was brought on board days before the kick off of the Born in the U.S.A. Tour in 1984.

Her own recording has been quite sporadic as the follow-up, 23rd Street Lullaby (Stumbling To Bethlehem is my favourite track off the album), didn't appear until 21 years after the Debut and her third album, Play It As It Lays (see Patti perform A Town Called Heartbreak - Here) was released in 2007. Maybe about time for a new one methinks.
