"During the long intervals between my record releases, as I was spending more and more tmie in the studio, when I met a fan on the street I was often asked, "What are you guys doing in there?" I regularly pondered that question myself

What we were doing in there was making a lot of music, a lot more music than I could use at any one time. As a result, my albums became a series of choices - what to include, what to leave out? I based my decisions on my creative point of view at the moment - the subject I was trying to focus on, something musical or emotional I was trying to express. In certain instances, as on Darkness on the Edge of Town, Nebraska, and The Ghost of Tom Joad, these choices crystallized the album I was making. On some of my other records the reasons I had for choosing one song over another, in hindsight, feel a good deal less significant. One of the results of working like this was that a lot of music, including some of my favorite things, remain unreleased.

This collection contains everything from the first notes I sang in a Columbia recording studio, my early and later work with the E Street Band, through my music in the '90s. It's the alternate route to some of the destinations I travelled to on my records, an invitation into the studio on the many nights we spent making music in search of the record we presented to you. I'm glad to finally be able to share this music; here are some of the ones that got away."
