Did Bruce ever sing a sweeter pair of lines than "Shining like these streetlights down here on the strand
Bright as the rain in the palm of your hand" ? The studio version of this song, eventually released on the 'Tracks' box set, is essentially a first (uncut) draft of the song. The band tries things out, takes its time, and just plays through the song. As a result 'Frankie' is pretty much the most perfect 7 minutes of music I think I've ever heard from Bruce and the band. Just beautiful.
