New Orleans R&B singer Gary U.S. Bonds had a major hit in the early 1960s with "Quarter to Three," but quickly faded into obscurity. One man who never forgot Bonds was Bruce Springsteen, who made "Quarter to Three" a staple of his live set and oversaw the release of Bonds's 1981 comeback album, DEDICATION. The album's follow-up repeated its predecessor's successful Springsteen-assisted formula, with Bruce contributing an even bigger percentage of the material. In retrospect its hard to believe that in the wake of two albums as strong as these it took Bonds another 22 years after that to return to the studio again, though he seemingly never tired of playing the Comeback King role to the hilt.
Gary U.S. Bonds has also released music as a member of Louisiana Gator Boys.
