This Day in Rock History - Nov. 19th

1995: Are you going to the after party?

On this day, after performing at an all-star 80th birthday tribute to Frank Sinatra at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan are invited back to the crooner’s home for a private celebration.

Neither mentions the fact that the Chairman of the Board once called rock ‘n’ roll artists “cretinous goons” and the music itself, “brutal, ugly, degenerate, vicious.” (Of course it was, Frank, why do you think we were listening to it?)
