sacredheart Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Im excited for a studio of American Skin, but dont need a studio of Tom Joad with Morello. The live one is more than enough, Id rather have a new song instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'd rather have a reissue of Tom Joad and not ever hear Morello in general, but I suppose this will do until those two can be achieved! In all seriousness, I'm looking forward to this. Even though newer Springsteen has been a little up and down in my book, I still love the hell out of it and he has yet to release something that I've truly disliked.

jerseypride Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 A lot of people on the Springsteen boards are bitching about the recycled nature of this record (because it's all old material) and the fact that Springsteen is just going through the motions to satisfy his release obligations under his Sony contract. Personally, I'm happy to hear any material Bruce wants to put out. As the Tracks boxed set has proven, Springsteen's unreleased material is better than a lot of artists can hope for.

mr. sincere Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Really surprised and excited for The Wall on this. Saw it live only once and was blown away. Looking forward to hearing some of the other unreleased stuff on here. Could do without 41 shots, Joad, and Dream Baby Dream though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusted_By_Space Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 i just wish the ramones had a chance to record hungry heart, i have always wondered what they would have did with it had landau allowed bruce to give it up as originally planned. And i know this is a dream, but i really want electric nebraska to see the light of day. bobfrombob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexH. Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'm in the middle of reading Bruce by Peter Ames Carlin right now. Great book for anyone interested in The Boss. The sheer length of time he spent in the studio (18 months to record The River) and the volume of resulting works (something like 70 songs recorded between the start and finish of the full-band Nebraska/Born in the USA sessions, and the last one he wrote was Dancing in the Dark) is insane. I like the Dream Baby Dream studio version he previewed a lot, except for those awful instantly-dated filtered drum sounds Bruce insists on using in all his post 2000 work. Really hurts some otherwise great songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseypride Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Vinyl pre-order is up on Amazon. Hopefully much cheaper options materialize. http://www.amazon.com/High-Hopes-Vinyl-Bruce-Springsteen/dp/B00GV38O44/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1385394586&sr=8-3&keywords=bruce+springsteen+high+hopes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the entire thing really old songs? There isn't anything newly written on here? I'm excited either way, but I didn't realize that just looking at the tracklisting and I'm a pretty big fan.

mr. sincere Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Unless he's trying to go the way of Neil Young vinyl, I'm sure this will be cheaper. Too bad they're not doing a 7" for RSD. I like the stuff he's been putting out the past few years on both RSDs and the timing definitely would have worked this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 New song, "High Hopes", here. Features Tom Morello on guitar. Sounds fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusted_By_Space Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 morello is on 8 of the 12 tracks i think. I think he adds something totally different to the e st. band for the better. Even though i think as far as bands go they dont need any help at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivek87 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 'High Hopes' finds Bruce Springsteen in a number of different musical settings, and includes the E Street Band members in various large and small combinations as well as guitarist Tom Morello on eight tracks. Besides Morello, the album also includes appearances on several songs by Clarence Clemons, who passed away in 2011, and Danny Federici, who passed away in 2008, on what Springsteen calls "some of our best unreleased material from the past decade." The album was recorded in New Jersey, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Australia and New York City and marks Springsteen's 18th studio album. As Bruce writes in the albums liner notes, "I felt they were among the best of my writing and deserved a proper studio recording." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my biggest regrets is not going to see them a few years ago when before clarance and dans passing. Living in wv the closest they came was charlotte. I wanted to take my old man, who missed bruces one and only show in charleston in 78. I sholdve went and sold smack or something for a few weeks for the cash. Anybody here seen springsteen and I?

filthyrich Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Got to see the ESB (with Clarence) quite a few times on that run of shows they did after Danny died... Truly epic setlists there. Last time I saw Clarence, they did BTR front-to-back, so I basically got to see him do Jungleland one last time. Amazing. This album seems alright, but I wish Bruce would just get on with releasing Tracks 2. And a River box set (with outtakes!). And then a BITUSA box set (with outtakes!!!!). Springsteen & I ain't bad. Half of the "fans" featured will make you embarrassed to be a fan, tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr. sincere Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Some real clunkers on here but a few gems as well. Really dig the studio cut of 41 Shots but I like the live Joad better than the one on here. Down In The Hole is great and Harry's Place kinda sounds like Knopfler. Probably won't listen to about half this record ever, but will definitely keep a few songs handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
