Haunting.10 The lyrics were written during 1972, although the melody was culled from a 1971 Springsteen composition performed live by the Bruce Springsteen Band called “Talkin About My Baby”.11 Originally titled ‘There Are No Kings In Texas” but Bruce has copyrighted the song under the title “Evacuation Of the West”. This band recording does not feature David Sancious and does not include any instrumental or vocal overdubs.12 The melody is the exact same as the earlier recorded and completed “Phantoms”.13 A rough rehearsal, of lower audio quality than most other session material.
