Springsteen Bruce - The Promise

Facts "Darkness was my 'samurai' record" Springsteen writes, "stripped of the frame and ready to rumble. But the music that got left behind was substantial". for the first time, fans will have access to THE PROMISE - two discs containing a total of 21 previously-unreleased songs from the DARKNESS recording sessions - songs that, as Springsteen writes, "perhaps could have / should have been released after BORN TO RUN and before the collection fo songs that DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN became". Highlights of THE PROMISE include the extraordinary rock version of "Racing in the Street," the never-before-released original recordings of "Because the Night," and "Fire", the supreme pop opus "Someday (We'll Be Together)," the hilarious "Ain't Good Enough for You," the superb soul-based vocal performance on "The Brokenhearted," the utterly haunting "Breakaway", and the fully orchestrated masterpiece and title song "The Promise".
