David Sancious is a pianist / organist / keyboard player of reknown. Known for his contributions to the fields of rock, jazz, and fusion, Sancious gained prominence in the early 1970s as a founding member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. He played keyboards and guitar for Springsteen's first three albums, "Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J." (1973), "The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle" (1973), and "Born to Run" (1975). Sancious' innovative and soulful keyboard work, as well as his songwriting contributions, helped shape the sound of these seminal recordings. After leaving the E Street Band in 1974, Sancious embarked on a solo career and formed his own band called "Tone." He released several albums under his name, including "Forest of Feelings" (1975) and "Transformation (The Speed of Love)" (1976), with regular releases until the present. He's also worked with artists such as Stanley Clarke, Peter Gabriel, Jack Bruce, and Sting, contributing his keyboard and composition skills to their projects. In Part 1 we cover a huge swathe of territory, from his current projects to his more recent work with Bruce Springsteen and a whole lot more.
