His solo in "Human Touch" is solid.

Didn't get to vote in this, but the top 3 would have been mine as well. And I love the album cuts, too. "Minutes to Memories", "Between A Laugh and A Tear", "Face Of A Nation". I played this a lot in 1985.

Heard Minutes to Memories on the radio for the first time in probably 20 years today. Holy fuck is that a great song.

Fantastic discussion upthread about Springsteen.
So...if he'd released HT/LT in '90 instead of '92, would they and its singles have been better received? Would he have had a Rhythm of the Saints moment i.e. "solid return and acclaim and sales" or gone The Razor's Edge and A Night on the Town? I tend to think that if the latter had happened, we'd remember TOL as a genuine New Jersey.

"rumbelseat" and "authority song" are about the only two post-1980 JCM songs that don't wear me out these days. and tbf the only pre-80 songs I can say for sure i know are "i need a lover" and "ain't even done with the night" but those are fucking dope k-classic all-timers imo

The third single is the worst.

A few days ago, WXRT in Chicago did a program on this album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s47xRaz2AGk

Listening to it now, the program's probably not my thing, but if you're a huge fan of the album, hopefully it's a good listen - I never got the impression there was that much info out there on the making of Scarecrow.
