If I Was The Priest has always been one of my Bruce Springsteen top 10 songs. I'm glad it got a new audience with the new Letter To You version. Nothing tops the original demo version. I’m a sucker when it comes to unreleased obscure songs.
I wanted to give the old version a new life with a new mix. Some call these remasters, but this was so heavily edited, and I can’t call it a remaster anymore. New mix introduced a couple quirks, but overall I’m really happy with the results.
