"Meeting Across the River" is the seventh track on Bruce Springsteen's 1975 album, Born to Run; it also appeared as the B-side of "Born to Run", the lead single from that album.
The song is a dark character sketch featuring a soft, haunting trumpet played by Randy Brecker, piano backing from E Street Band member Roy Bittan and upright bass from jazz veteran Richard Davis.
Original pressings of Born to Run billed the song as "The Heist", suggesting the man across the river is paying the narrator and Eddie to commit a robbery.
