Bruce Springsteen To Release 7 ‘Lost Albums’ This Summer

Bruce Springsteen is set to release seven albums this summer full of songs that have never been heard before.

Bruce Springsteen’s upcoming “Tracks II: The Lost Albums” includes seven unreleased albums recorded between 1983-2018 with 83 new songs. The package will be released June 27 on Sony Music.

The companion “Lost And Found: Selections from The Lost Albums,” featuring 20 highlights from the collection, will be released the same day.

“‘The Lost Albums’ were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released,” said Springsteen in a Thursday news release. “I’ve played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I’m glad you’ll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.”

On Thursday, Springsteen gave the first taste of the “Lost Albums” by releasing his first single “Rain In The River,” which comes from one of the new lost albums titled “Perfect World.”

The other album titles, according to a news release, are “LA Garage Sessions ‘83,” “Streets of Philadelphia Sessions,” “Faithless,” “Somewhere North of Nashville,” “Inyo” and “Twilight Hours.”

The collection of albums will offer a variety of sounds, including everything from the legendary musician’s signature drum loop and synth sound to country-inspired melodies to orchestra-driven instrumentation, the release said.

“The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions,” Springsteen said.

Springsteen is set to kick off the European leg of his tour with the E Street Band in May in Manchester, and end in July in Milan.
