Musical Interlude: My Hometown (1985)

 Bruce Springsteen was in town the other night, and one can imagine this track was on his playlist.

"My Hometown" was released as a single to promote "The Boss"' live package covering the period between 1975-85, and is a tender ballad with a softer than usual beat, in that Clarence Clemons swapped out his saxophone for a tambourine. Bruce's future wife, Patti, also plays the tambourine, with Nils Lofgren subbing for Steven Van Zandt on guitar.
