from Springsteen, this time without the E-Street Band. I owuld describe it as a bit more serious as he experimented with new band members and backing singers. Some cool tracks including the title song. Probably not his finest work but most fans do appreciate the way The Boss has continually re-invented himself throughout his career, from Born to Run to The Seeger Sessions. What next? - a rap album!!!!
Format:Audio CD
This album was released at the beginning of 1992 on the same day as the album Lucky TownLucky Town and over 4 years after its predecessor Tunnel of Love. The story is that Springsteen felt the album was incomplete so returned to the studio and very quickly had recorded enough songs for another album which became Lucky Town.
This is one of his most eclectic records mixing the anthemic rock of Gloria`s Eyes, The Long Goodbye and the title track with the slick soul of Real World, Man`s Job and Soul Driver. A sprinkling of heartfelt ballads, Cross My Heart, With Every Wish and I Wish I Were Blind.
This is not one of Springsteens best albums but it is far from his worst.

Human Touch has five great songs, the title track (my favourite Springsteen song), Soul Driver, With Every Wish, All Or Nothing At All and I Wish I Was Blind plus quite a few good ones. The main problem, barring a few scraps of filler, is that it sounds more like a collection of songs thrown together than a whole album - the beautiful, wistful ballad With Every Wish is ruined by immediately going into the raucous rock of Roll Of The Dice. Human Touch is ultimately a poor relative of its sister record Lucky Town, one of Springsteen's best albums that was released on the same day. Ironic, because it was supposed to be the other way round.

Springsteen - Human Touch
I already owned this album on cassette but never played it because of this. I decided, therefore, that it was time to upgrade to cd. Read more

One of Springsteen's low points
Released on the same day as the far superior "Lucky Town", this is a shambling, somewhat garbled collection of disparate songs, many of which should have been left on the cutting... Read more

hard to explain
Having spent the last 30 years being a fan of Springsteen, in all of his various projects, I have returned to this album to see if my initial response was too harsh. Read more

Compared with its twin record ("Lucky Town" was released the same day), "Human Touch" may contain a couple more pop hooks, but all in all it's not a very good album, and criticism... Read more

A lovely, yet flawed album
This album, while not feeling as coherent as others, has some of the most thought-provoking lyrics of Bruce's career. Read more
