‘The Ghost Of Tom Joad’ was among the songs I wrote for the E Street Band to complete the ‘Greatest Hits’ album. It started out as a rock song. But it didn’t feel right, so I set it aside. I returned to it some months later, while still unsure of what I wanted to work on next. After working with the band in New York, I went back to California and started recording at home. I had ‘Straight Tim’, ‘Highway 29′, and ‘The Ghost Of Tom Joad’. I also had a notebook filled with unfinished song ideas.
