The Bat Out Of Hell Sessions Piano

*AndyK* · 17 May 2011, 10:32

Brian Fallon, lead singer of The Gaslight Anthem is in the studio in New Jersye recording with The Horrible Crowes at the moment, he's blogging about his experience and a recent blog featured a certain piano.

Brian's a huge Springsteen fan, and also lists Bat Out Of Hell as amongst his top albums of all time. SO the man clearly has taste

You can only imagine his excitment at finding that the piano in the studio was the same one played by Roy Bittan during the Bat sessions.

Look here

Too Cool! I'm sure they don't lock away a perfectly broken in piano. Who else has used it I wonder!
I imagine there was never any filmed footage of the process behind BOOH album eh. Only photograph?

(Lucky guy!)

JEALOUS!!! My god I would have DIED, any piano graced by The Professor would do me but that one would be immense!!!

On a side note, if anyone's not heard anything by Gaslight yet, give these guys a go. They really are phenominal, and definitely some of the hardest working blokes I've ever heard of!!

***just read the blog post... "by a guy names Meatloaf" ?! Are we now of an era where people don't know what Meat Loaf and BOOH are and it needs explaining?!

Sincerely hope not!!**

That maybe the same piano as in the 1978 music videos as well!

It maybe, but it's highly unlikely that a high quality studio piano would be used for a live show or a video shoot.
