Bruce Springsteen Releasing New Songs, MusiCares Concert DVD

Share

It’s never too soon for more Bruce Springsteen releases. His new album, “High Hopes,” is just a few weeks old. But on April 19th, Springsteen is putting out a four track “EP” (EP used to mean extended play, like a big single. Now it’s just four songs on iTunes.) They didn’t make the cut apparently. But now they do! The EP is called “American Beauty.” You can guess that Jimmy Fallon has already booked Bruce for that week.

There’s more. At last, MusiCares, one of the two official NARAS branded foundations, is releasing a DVD of one of its Person of the Year concerts. The first one is 2013’s Springsteen tribute. That release is March 25th. I hope MusiCares releases more of these DVDs soon. This year’s Carole King concert would be perfect, so would the Don Henley, Neil Young, and Barbra Streisand shows. Maybe they can take great tracks from each of the annual shows and make them a compilation album.

Here’s the tracklist for the Springsteen:

  • 1. “Adam Raised a Cain” Performed by Alabama Shakes
  • 2. “Because the Night” Performed by Patti Smith
  • 3. “Atlantic City” Performed by Natalie Maines, Ben Harper and Charlie Musselwhite

  • 11. “Hungry Heart” Performed by Juanes
  • 12. “Tougher Than the Rest” Performed by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill
  • 13. “The Ghost of Tom Joad” Performed by Jim James and Tom Morello
