Bruce Springsteen paid tribute to Clive Davis, the legendary music executive who helped shape Springsteen’s career and died on Monday at the age of 94.

“Over here on E Street, we mourn the death of the great record man and close friend Clive Davis,” Springsteen posted on social media. “At 22 years old, he changed my life when he signed me to Columbia Records.”

He added: “He treated me with the same respect and kindness as a 22-year-old nobody as he did after all my success. A great man. All our prayers and love.”
