"Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" is a 1973 song by Bruce Springsteen, from his "The Wild, The Innocent, & The E Street Shuffle" album, and is especially famed as a concert number for Springsteen and The E Street Band.

Never released as a single and generally unknown upon its initial album release, "Rosalita" began to get FM radio airplay when an advance version of "Born to Run" was given out to rock radio stations. As Springsteen gained commercial success, "Rosalita" became one of his most popular airplay tracks, and is still heard on classic rock radio.

(140) Cockney Rebel - Judy Teen (1974)
Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel are an English rock band from the early 1970s. Their music covers a range of styles from pop to progressive rock. The original Cockney Rebel was formed when Harley hooked up with his former folk music partner, Crocker (fiddle / mandolin / guitar) in 1972. They auditioned drummer Stuart Elliott, bassist Paul Jeffreys, and keyboardist Milton Reame-James. They were signed to EMI after playing five gigs. Their first single, "Sebastian", was an immediate success in Europe, although it failed to score in the UK Singles Chart. Their debut album, The Human Menagerie, was released in 1973. Although not a commercial success they did attract a growing following in London. The band recorded the second album, "Psychomodo". A major UK tour was arranged and the single "Judy Teen" picked up airplay. By the time it charted, major TV appearances helped to build the tour into one of the major rock events of 1974.
