The year was 1993. Bruce Springsteen was brought on to provide music for the movie, ‘Philadelphia’ with Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. Do you remember his very dark and somber song, ‘Streets of Philadelphia’? Well, The Boss also recorded a few other songs during that time, including, ‘Blind Spot’. According to a press release, Bruce said, “That was just the theme that I locked in on at that moment. I don’t really know why. Patti and I, we were having a great time in California. But sometimes, if you lock into one song you like, then you follow that thread. I had ‘Blind Spot,’ and I followed that thread through the rest of the record.” I really like this song. It has the feel of ‘Streets of Philadelphia’. See what you think. The box set is due out June 25th this year.
