1)	Springsteen has recorded the Tom Waits song "Jersey Girl" as
	the flip side of the single "Cover Me"
2)	According to USA Today (which is great for sports statistics
	and interviews with musicians, etc), at a recents Springsteen
	concert, the Boss led into his song "Johnny 99", about 
	unemployment, frustration, etc. by mentioning Mr. Reagan's
	use of Springsteen's popularity, and asking the crowd
	"I wonder what his favorite album is...he sure hasn't been
	listening to this one lately...there's a promise being broken..."

	Say it, Bruce!
