Springsteen was among those sharing his respect for Gudinski on Tuesday saying, "My friend Michael Gudinski was first, last, and always a music man".
"I’ve toured the world for the last fifty years and never met a better promoter. Michael always spoke with a deep rumbling voice, and the words would spill out so fast that half the time I needed an interpreter," he said.
"But I could hear him clear as a bell when he would say, 'Bruce, I’ve got you covered'. And he always did. He was loud, always in motion, intentionally (and unintentionally) hilarious, and deeply soulful.
"He will be remembered by artists, including this one, from all over the world every time they step foot on Australian soil. My deepest condolences to his wife and partner Sue and to the whole Gudinski family, of which he was so proud."
Gudinski will be honoured with a state funeral in Victoria, with details to be announced in the coming days.
