Set the wayback machine for 1987. Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band are riding high from the success of the "Born in the USA" album and tour. In this alternate universe however, rather than going off on a fifteen year solo jag, Springsteen and band record the follow-up to their blockbuster. "Magic" is the album they would have made.

Rylo is a blues band that doesn't really have the blues. You won't find any "woe is me, I've got bad luck and trouble" slow blues songs on their second album "Automatic Oil."
