A bar, just like a stage, can be a sanctuary. A refuge where comfort comes from the familiar. Bruce Springsteen, Stone Pony regular. A moniker first stamped in the mid-Seventies, waltzing across the dance floor and belting out “Havin’ a Party” with Stevie and Southside. By the early Eighties, with his fame soaring after The River and into Born in the USA, Springsteen’s reputation as a Pony regular became national news.

The story of how Jon Landau saw Bruce Springsteen play at Cambridge, Massachusetts’ Harvard Square Theater on May 9th, 1974 and then declared him “rock and roll future” in Boston’s Real Paper, creating a tidal wave of hype that crested with the release of Born to Run the following year, has been told many times. What’s far less known is that a young photographer named Barry Schneier was perched near the stage that night, snapping gorgeous photographs of the early show and the late show along with the soundcheck.
