Ernest Carter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the organist and composer, see Ernest Trow Carter.
Ernest "Boom" Carter is an American drummer, who was a member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band for six months in 1974.
He played a number of concerts during that stretch and was the drummer on the recording of the classic song "Born to Run". Future E Street drummer Max Weinberg later said that Carter devised a jazz fusion part on that record that Weinberg could never reproduce in concert, and eventually stopped attempting.
Carter left the E Street Band along with pianist David Sancious to form the band Tone. He continues to perform regularly with some of the San Francisco Bay Area's finest talent.
