Greatest Hits is Bruce Springsteen's first compilation album, February
27, 1995 on Columbia Records. It is a collection of some of
Springsteen's hit singles and popular album tracks through the years
and four extra numbers at the end, mostly recorded with the E Street
Band in 1995. The latter constituted Springsteen's first (albeit very
partial) with his backing band since the late 1980s. Some of the songs
are shorter versions of the original album
The incorporation of the "new" tracks was portrayed in the 1996
documentary Blood Brothers. "Murder Incorporated" and "This Hard Land"
were, in fact, unused 1982 songs from the Born in the U.S.A. sessions,
with the latter being re-recorded here more than a decade later, and
both subsequently became Springsteen concert staples.[1] "Blood
Brothers", on the other hand, was played only as the final closing song
of both the 1999-2000 Reunion Tour and 2002-2003 Rising Tour, both
times with an extra verse added. "Secret Garden" achieved notoriety via
the soundtrack of the 1996 film Jerry Maguire. Alternate versions of
several of these new tracks were on the 1996 Blood Brothers EP.
The compilation was commercially successful, hitting the peaks of the
U.S. album chart and UK Album Chart and selling more than four million
copies in the U.S.[2]
About as complete a selection of fan and artist favourites as any
single-disc Bruce collection could be, this is a surprisingly coherent
listen given the many stylistic and attitudinal shifts it charts. The
inclusion of only four of Born in the U.S.A.'s obvious hits leaves
space for less obvious choices like "Atlantic City" and four new cuts,
among them songs recorded by a briefly reunited E Street Band. The pace
lags a bit near the end--"Secret Garden" is turgid enough to take its
place on a Sting album--but Greatest Hits earns its place in the CD
player with stuff like "Born to Run," "The Rivermore…" and "Dancing in
the Dark." --Rickey Wright
