[edit] History
Springsteen was working on Human Touch, which he intended to release sometime in 1990, but the project took him longer than he thought. He shelved the project in early 1991 and came back to it in September of the same year. Intending to record one more song for the album, he ended up with ten new songs, which became "Lucky Town". Once he completed Lucky Town, he decided to release both albums at the same time.
