Bruce Springsteen has a “Blind Spot” for the Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil.”
Recorded in 1995 as part of the “Streets of Philadelphia” sessions, the new old song is part of “Tracks II: The Lost Albums” coming on June 27th.
Percussion on “Blind Spot” suggests a great classic rock segue out of “Devil” for FM stations. You could sandwich “Blind Spot” between the Stones song and leading with Chicago’s “Beginnings” and really claw back to 1977.
I don’t know why Bruce didn’t go for “Blind Spot.” It would have been a perfect FM hit.
