wow.. you see the beauty in liner notes streamers of the world: roy bittan of the E Street Band plays piano on makin' love out of nothing and all and is co-credited with the arrangement (code for co-wrote song but we're not going to give you a cowrite buddy)....the plodding drums (heinous) are from max weinberg also of the E Street Band...
in a way its jim steinman's (producer /writer) dream.. meatloaf was very Springsteen in a hideous way (all written by Steinman....).... so he goes out and hires Bittain/Weinberg for Making Love out of Nothing At All...
i never knew that...til today...
bittan also helps make dire straits making movies into one of my favorite lps... romeo and juliet, etc.. yeah its him.
