New Bruce Springsteen + E-Street-Band Album - Letter To You
 
https://brucespringsteen.net/

Bruce’s new studio album with the E Street Band, Letter To You, will be released on October 23. A rock album fueled by the band's heart-stopping, house-rocking signature sound, the 12 track Letter To You is Bruce’s 20th studio album, and was recorded at his home studio in New Jersey.

“I love the emotional nature of Letter To You,” says Bruce. “And I love the sound of the E Street Band playing completely live in the studio, in a way we’ve never done before, and with no overdubs. We made the album in only five days, and it turned out to be one of the greatest recording experiences I’ve ever had.”

Letter to You includes nine recently written Springsteen songs, as well as new recordings of three of his legendary, but previously unreleased, compositions from the 1970s. Produced by Ron Aniello with Bruce Springsteen, Letter To You is Bruce’s first time performing with the E Street Band since The River 2016 tour.

Tracklist:
1. One Minute You’re Here
2. Letter To You
3. Burnin’ Train
4. Janey Needs A Shooter
5. Last Man Standing
6. The Power Of Prayer
7. House Of A Thousand Guitars
8. Rainmaker
9. If I Was The Priest
10. Ghosts
11. Song For Orphans
12. I’ll See You In My Dreams

It’s still 10 times better than the new BJ songs.

The new song, Letter to You, isn't the best.

Do we really need a new thread every time Bruce farts? Can't we just revive one of the 8 previous ones?

The new song is what it is - Bruce by numbers. It's fine. After a period of acoustic drivel that included the last album and the castration of the old classics for the Broadway show, he now went back to his old bandmates, so we hear the big Max drums, Roy's piano and loud guitars; all that were sorely missed from his albums the past decade (sans High Hopes, but that was mostly a collection of old songs anyway). Sonically, sounds like an E Street song. All there's missing is a good hook and genuine energy. The closest comparison to his past for me would be Lonesome Day meets Better Days meets I Wish I Were Blind. Except all three of these songs are much better.

It reminds me the new single the Rolling Stones put out a few months back (Living In The Ghost Town). Vintage sound, but not that much songwriting substance. I guess the Bon Jovi's best equivalent would be We Weren't Born To Follow.

That's how you save 2020.

A Bruce record, followed by a Bon Jovi record.

Don’t mind a bit of Bruce but the new song didn’t grab me.

This is one of my favorite songs in his entire career.

Joyous, uplifting, all the adjectives.

Its a good album,but,tbh,after listening to Ghosts and reading some good reviews from fans on some boards I was expecting more.
It is his best album of the last 13 years,the best since Magic,but it wasnt very difficult looking at the bad albums Bruce has released since 2007.
With Bruce happens just the opposite to Bon Jovi.
With each new BJ album,it is cool to say that it is a bad album,that they dont released a good album since the 80s or 1992,etc
But with Bruce is the oppsoite,it is cool to say that each new album is a good album.
I am a big Bruce fan(not as big as a Bon Jovi fan,BJ is the band of my life)and if I have to criticize Bruce I do.
The album has 4 or 5 very good songs and the rest is average.
I actually enjoyed the album,and I think its a good album but reading somewhere its his best albun since Tunnel of Love or even since The River...NO WAY
Even Magic was a better album.
Saying that,it has one of the best songs of all his career.Ghosts is incredible.
I hope we can enjoy Bruce more years.
