"Because the Night" goes back to 1977, a song Bruce Springsteen wrote with Patti Smith, and the public heard it first on the Patti Smith Group's 1978 album Easter, where it became the best-known song in her catalog. Springsteen's own recording came out in November 2010, and it's a chance to hear the co-writer take back his half of the bargain: he sings lead, with Garry Tallent on electric bass and Max Weinberg behind the drums.
