Instead, through members of two of the tightest bands in rock, Springsteen's keyboardists and the Rumour's rhythm section, he brings coherence to music from both sides of the Atlantic. He also employs guitarist Adrian Beiew and vocalist Nona Hendryx, fresh from sessions with the funk-ified Talking Heads, and David Johanssen and Lou Reed, two of New York's most influential throats, and Big Youth and Linton Kwesi Johnson, reggae's premier "toasters" (talk-over...
