No, I don't think it really had anything to do with The Boss. Like Michael said it was at a very early stage of his career. I know it was a chop problem etc. I'm affraid to put this out there, however, I know at one point Doc had a slight problem with a battle with the bottle, however, I think that was at a much later point in his career. You read so much about these great artists over the years but I don't remember all the details.
