This is likely the most rare piece of Bruce Springsteen vinyl you'll ever lay eyes on, as it was NEVER made available for commercial release.
The 7" EP single was given to radio DJs as a promotional vehicle to help build excitement in advance of the Born To Run album, which ultimately landed The Boss simultaneously on the covers of Time and Newsweek and made him a household name. Remember, Bruce's first two albums, on which these songs first appeared, were not considered commercial successes.
I've had this in my collection since it came out, and played it in its entirety just before writing this description. There is a crack in the vinyl which results in a pop in the first minute or so of play. Most noticeable during quieter passages/low volume. This is true of both sides. Otherwise, no skips and only minor surface noise.
Side one features "Spirit In The Night" and "Growin' Up" from Greetings From Asbury Park.
Side two features "Rosalita" from The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle.
Please check my feedback and bid with confidence. Feel free to contact me with any questions!
Thanks, and good luck.
