5.0 out of 5 stars
Very under rated,
By louis smith "louis" (U.S.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Human Touch (Audio CD)
One of the reviewers wrote that Human Touch and Lucky Town are under rated is right on the button. Human Touch has great lyrics and harmony. Most musicians would kill for some of the music on these records. The critics were way off on this record. It makes you wonder what else they are wrong about. Some record stores let you listen to samplings of an artists efforts before you buy. That way you can make your own judgements on how good a record is. One should be skeptical of critical reviews and think for yourself. Being skeptical of what critics said about Human Touch and Lucky Town and hearing some samples here on Amazon helped maked my decision to buy them. I'm glad I did.

Not Touched Quite Enough,
By
This review is from: Human Touch (Audio CD)
It's hard to know what to make of the Boss's twin release of "Human Touch," and "Lucky Town," in 1992. He was into striking out on his own and surrounding himself with studio musicians. I'm not sure if the thinking was that he could free himself up to make some music solely on his own terms or maybe to creatively expand, but for whatever reason it has left these two recordings slightly flat. Both "Human Touch," and "Lucky Town," are lumped together in my mind with "Lucky Town," being the slightly rawer more rocking of the two."Human Touch," starts out promisingly enough with a classically catchy Springsteen tune. From there it skips around until it arrives at a less than inspired folky Nebraska-esque "Pony Boy." However, gone is the desperation, the glaring soul cry of poverty and despair, the screaming social need of the working class, the insanity of an insane world, the cold hard light of dawn. Instead we are left with, "Giddy up Giddy up my Pony Boy." Bruce doesn't write to many bad songs and any album he puts out proves very listenable. The man has a way with music...a gift for the singing troubadour of the common man, a voice for the masses. Unless you are a diehard fan of the boss, go looking elsewhere for his music. "Human Touch," might leave you slightly untouched.

One Of His Worst,
By A Customer
This review is from: Human Touch (Audio CD)
I don't believe that laying off the E-Street band was as much of a crime as some people. If Bruce wanted to go in new musical directions that should be his decision. Before this album was released I was expecting something radical and wonderful (like U2's Achtung Baby after Rattle & Hum). What we got was music in the exact same style as before. It turned out there was no new inspiration in Bruce playing with new people and this batch of songs could arguably be called Bruce's worst. There are no classics here. The title track, I Wish I Were Blind, Cross My Heart and a couple others are very good songs but none are incredible. What makes this album bad is the 4 or 5 really horrible songs like Real Man, Long Goodbye, All Or Nothing At All, and Roll of the Dice - all practically unlistenable. Lucky Town, released the same day, is much more deserving of purchase.
