Life's Work

Clarence Clemons, known to his fans as "the Big Man," earned his reputation as a saxophonist extraordinaire during his 20-year stint with Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. His urban sound, vivid and bright, connected "the Boss" to 1950s' rock-n-roll and 1960s' soul. But Clemons' artistic touch reached beyond the famed E-Street Band. In the early 1980s he toured and recorded with his own band, and loaned his distinct style to the recordings of Joe Cocker, Janis Ian, and Nils Lofgren. Clemons also began working as an actor during the 1970s, making appearances on television programs like Nash Bridges and in movies like Blues Brothers 2000.

Clemons was born in Norfolk, Virginia, the grandson of a Baptist minister, and moved to northern New Jersey during the mid-1960s. He began playing the saxophone when he was nine and was influenced by R&B artists like King Curtis and Junior Walker. "Those blues chord changes woke me up to something lying dormant inside me," Clemmons told C. Bottomley and Jim Macnie at VH1 Online. "My uncle bought me a King Curtis album and my life changed." Clemons played minor league football with the Newark Bears and was on his way to a professional career with the Cleveland Browns when injuries from an automobile accident put an end to his aspirations. Clemons also worked as a counselor for disturbed boys for eight years.

In 1973 Clemons' life changed when he joined Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. "It was a rainy, windy night," Clemons recalled to the Ottawa Sun, of his first meeting with the Boss. "When I opened the door the whole thing flew off its hinges and blew down the street. The band were [sic] staring at me onstage. I think Bruce was nervous, because when I said 'I want to play with your band,' he just answered, 'Sure, anything you want.'" The band maintained a grueling schedule over the next four years, touring and recording, but made little money. This changed abruptly with the release of Born to Run in 1975. The title track became a hit, and critics praised the band's intense, three-hour concerts.

The E Street Band wasn't just the typical back-up band, but the cornerstone of Springsteen's sound. "The E Street Band was ... part of a package," wrote Seth Rogovoy in the Rogovy Report, "a myth which said that through dint of sheer effort a hard-working, blue-collar bar band from the Jersey shore could become the biggest rock 'n' roll group in the world." It is Clemons' shoulder that Springsteen leans against on the cover of Born to Run, and Clemons' solo on "Born to Run" that drives the song forward. In Peter Gambaccini's book, Bruce Springsteen, the author quoted Springsteen as saying, "Clarence is his sax. Sometimes you can't tell where Clarence ends and his sax begins." Clemons' stature grew as the band reached an even larger audience during the 1980s, following the release of Born in the U.S.A. The tour that followed the album also included a theatrical stage kiss between Springsteen and Clemons after the performance of "Thunder Road."

While Clemons continued to play in the E Street Band during the early 1980s, he recorded his first solo album in 1983. "I love the responsibility of fronting my own band," Clemons told Denis Armstrong in the Ottawa Sun. "Creating my own audience is fun, developing my own ideas and carving out my own space. Everyone likes to leave their own footprints in the sands of time." In 1985 he released Hero, an album that helped establish the saxophonist as an artist in his own right. "It's great to see a musician step from the shadows of a legend and make a mark on his own," wrote Joe Viglione in All Music Guide, "and Clarence Clemons does that remarkably well here." The album also included a vocal by Jackson Browne that reached the Top 20 in 1985. In 1989 Clemons followed with Night with Mr. C, an album that offered a synthesis of new and old styles.

In 1989 Clemons and the other members of the E Street Band received a shock when Springsteen decided to continue recording and touring without the band. "It's like losing a friend," Clemons told Marilyn Beck in the Los Angeles Daily News. "We all just hope he's happy." Clemons, along with other band members, were puzzled by their dismissal. "I felt estranged for some reason, for the fact that things changed," Clemons told Kate Meyers in Entertainment Weekly. Despite disappointment, Clemons nonetheless understood the need for a change. "He's done this before," Clemons told Beck. "Others, like Billy Joel and Tom Petty, have gone solo for a while, and then gone back with their bands. It's very healthy."

Clemons also pursued a number of side projects. He continued to play with his band, Clarence Clemons and the Red Bank Rockers, and he toured with Ringo Starr and the Jerry Garcia Band. He also busied himself with session work, loaning his saxophone sound to recordings by Aretha Franklin, Alvin Lee, and Roy Orbison. He continued his acting career, appearing in several television series including Viper and The Sentinel, and playing multiple roles on the big screen in such films as Fatal Instinct and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

In late 1998 rumors spread of an E Street Band reunion. In March of 1999, tour dates were announced, and the reunion kicked off with two surprise shows at Convention Hall in Asbury Park. Critics were quick to note that the band had lost none of its prowess during its ten-year absence. "Clemons' sax work displays nuances and noodlings that were absent from his bombastic style in the '70s and '80s," noted Time. Clemons also continued to work with his new band, the Temple of Soul, releasing Live in Asbury Park in 2002. "My new album could be visualized," Clemons told Daniel Rothbart in NY Arts, "as Park Avenue meets South Beach." Through both his work with Springsteen and his own bands, Clemons gives everything he has to each new performance, living up to his nickname, "the Big Man." "I don't care if there are five people in the audience or 100,000," he told Bottomley and Macnie, "I'll always give 110%."

Early years

Clemons is the son of Clarence Sr., a fish market owner, and his wife Thelma. He is the oldest of their three children. His grandfather was a Southern Baptist preacher and, as a result, the young Clemons grew up listening to Gospel music. When he was nine, his father gave him an alto saxophone as a Christmas present and paid for music lessons. He later switched to baritone sax and played in a high school jazz band. His uncle also influenced his early musical development when he bought him his first King Curtis album. Curtis, and his work with The Coasters in particular, would be become a major influence on Clemons and led to him switching to tenor saxophone. As a youth Clemons also showed potential as an American football player, and he attended Maryland State College on both music and football scholarships. He played as a lineman on the same team as Emerson Boozer and attracted the attention of Cleveland Browns who offered him a trial. However, the day before he was involved in a serious car accident which effectively ended any plans of a career in the NFL. ^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]. While just 18 Clemons had one of his earliest studio experiences, recording sessions with Tyrone Ashley's Funky Music Machine, a band from Plainfield, New Jersey that included Ray Davis, Eddie Hazel and Billy Bass Nelson, all of whom would go onto play with Parliament-Funkadelic. These sessions were eventually released in 2007 by Truth and Soul Records as Let Me Be Your Man. ^[8]^[9] While at Maryland State College Clemons also joined his first band, The Vibratones, which played James Brown covers and stayed together for about four years between 1961 and 1965. While still playing with this band he moved to Newark, New Jersey were he worked as a counsellor for emotionally disturbed children at the Jamesburg Training School for Boys between 1962 and 1970. During this period, Clemons also married for the first time and fathered two sons, Clarence III and Charles. ^[4]^[10] He is legally blind in one eye. Clemons stated "It's not something you can replace. If it goes out, that's it."^[11]

Bruce Springsteen

The story of how Clemons first met Bruce Springsteen has entered into E Street Band folklore. In concerts Springsteen would introduce "The E Street Shuffle" with a monologue about how they met and the event was also immortalised in "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out". They allegedly met for the first time in September 1971. At the time Clemons was playing with Norman Seldin & The Joyful Noyze at The Wonder Bar in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Seldin was a Jersey Shore musician/entrepreneur who, as well as playing piano and leading various bands, had his own record label, Selsom Records. In 1969 Clemons had recorded an eponymous album with this band. In 2008 tracks from this album were reissued on an anthology, Asbury Park - Then And Now, put together by Seldin. It was Karen Cassidy, lead vocalist with The Joyful Noyze, who encouraged Clemons to check out Springsteen who was playing with The Bruce Springsteen Band at the nearby Student Prince. ^[12]^[13]^[14] Clemons has recalled their meeting in various interviews.^[15]

One night we were playing in Asbury Park. I'd heard The Bruce Springsteen Band was nearby at a club called The Student Prince and on a break between sets I walked over there. On-stage, Bruce used to tell different versions of this story but I'm a Baptist, remember, so this is the truth. A rainy, windy night it was, and when I opened the door the whole thing flew off its hinges and blew away down the street. The band were on-stage, but staring at me framed in the doorway. And maybe that did make Bruce a little nervous because I just said, "I want to play with your band," and he said, "Sure, you do anything you want." The first song we did was an early version of "Spirit In The Night". Bruce and I looked at each other and didn't say anything, we just knew. We knew we were the missing links in each other's lives. He was what I'd been searching for. In one way he was just a scrawny little kid. But he was a visionary. He wanted to follow his dream. So from then on I was part of history.

Well before this meeting, however, Clemons and Springsteen had moved within the same circle of musical acquaintances. Norman Seldin had managed and promoted several local bands, including The Motifs ^[16] who featured Vinnie Roslin, later to play with Springsteen in Steel Mill. On April 22, 1966 Seldin had also organised a battle of the bands competition at the Matawan-Keyport Roller Drome in Matawan, New Jersey. Springsteen was among the entrants playing with his then band, The Castiles. ^[17] Billy Ryan, who played lead guitar with The Joyful Noyze, ^[18] also played in The Jaywalkers with Garry Tallent and Steve Van Zandt and Clemons himself had played with Tallent in Little Melvin & The Invaders ^[19].

In July 1972 Springsteen began recording his debut album Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. and during breaks from recording, he jammed with Clemons and The Joyful Noyze on at least two occasions at The Shipbottom Lounge in Point Pleasant, New Jersey. When Springsteen then decided to use saxophone on the songs "Blinded By The Light" and "Spirit In The Night" it was Clemons he called. By October Springsteen was ready to tour and promote Greetings… and he put together a band featuring Clemons, Tallent, Danny Federici and Vini Lopez. Clemons played his last gig with Norman Seldin & The Joyful Noyze at the Club Plaza in Bayville, New Jersey on October 21, 1972. Four days later Clemons made his debut with the formative E Street Band at an unadvertised, impromptu performance at The Shipbottom Lounge. ^[20]^[21] Throughout the 1970s and 1980s Clemons featured prominently on Springsteen albums. On Born to Run he provided memorable saxophone solos on the title track, "Thunder Road" and "Jungleland" while Darkness on the Edge of Town featured another notable solo on "Badlands". The River saw Clemons feature on songs such as "The Ties That Bind", "Sherry Darling", "I Wanna Marry You" and "Independence Day" while Born in the U.S.A. saw solos on "Bobby Jean" and "I'm Goin' Down". ^[22]^[23]

At the end of shows, while recognizing members of the E Street Band, Springsteen refers to Clemons as "The Biggest Man You Ever Seen."

Solo career

Outside of his work with the E Street Band, Clemons has recorded with many other artists and has had a number of musical projects on his own. The best known of these are his 1985 vocal duet with Jackson Browne on the hit single "You're a Friend of Mine", and his saxophone work on Aretha Franklin's 1985 hit single "Freeway of Love". In the mid-1990s, he recorded a Japan-only CD release called Aja and the Big Man "Get it On" (on the now-defunct Dream Train Records) with singer/songwriter Aja Kim (formerly of the tribute band The Iron Maidens). In the 2000s Clemons has been working with a group called The Temple of Soul, and has also recorded with philanthropic teen band Creation. During the 1980s Clemons owned a Red Bank, New Jersey nightclub called Big Man's West.

Acting career

Clemons has appeared in movies and on television making his debut in Martin Scorsese's 1977 musical, New York, New York in which he played a trumpet player. He can be seen as one of the Three Most Important People In The World in the 1989 film Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. In 1985, Clemons was a special guest star in Diff'rent Strokes episode "So You Want to Be a Rock Star", in which he played the role of Mr.Kingsley, a young saxophonist player helping Arnold Jackson to learn to play his sax. He has also been a guest voice in an episode of The Simpsons. He also played the role of Jack in Swing starring opposite Lisa Stansfield and Hugo Speer, directed by Nick Mead. He appeared alongside Michael McKean and David Bowe as a miner in one episode of musician "Weird Al" Yankovic's children's television show The Weird Al Show. He appeared in an episode of Damon Wayans' television show, My Wife And Kids as a musician and performed an original composition, co written with bassist, Lynn Woolever, called "One Shadow In The Sun". Clemons twice appeared as a Baltimore youth-program organizer in HBO's crime drama The Wire.^[24]^[25] He appeared in an episode of the Brothers and in the "Eddie's Book" episode of 'Til Death as himself.
