I don’t know about you guys, but I thought Magic was the best Springsteen album in quite some time. He and The E Street Band sounded completely energized, so with the official announcement that he is releasing a new album, I find myself excited about a new Bruce album for probably the first time in my life (I was a kid when Born in the U.S.A. and Tunnel of Love came out, so I appreciated those retroactively). The album is called Workin’ on a Dream, it’s being released on January 27th just in time for Bruce’s performance on the Super Bowl, and it will again be produced by Brendan O’ Brien, who helmed Magic. Here’s an acoustic performance of the title track. I like it…let us know what you think.
