The Lost Albums

Springsteen fans, we hope you're holding on to your hats! The Lost Albums is an unprecedented opportunity to hear no less than 82 unreleased songs from The Boss, documenting some 35 years of recordings that never saw the light of day. From garage recordings in the early 80s to the Philadelphia sessions, to the lost tunes that were recorded after Nebraska, there's a heck of a lot to sink your teeth into here. Hot damn! - Flying Out

Featuring 82 previously unreleased songs, The Lost Albums fill in chapters of Springsteen’s expansive career timeline while offering invaluable insight into his life and work as an artist. The Lost Albums were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released, said Springsteen. I’ve played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I’m glad you’ll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.

From the lo-fi exploration of LA Garage Sessions '83, serving as a crucial link between Nebraska and Born in the U.S.A., to the drum loop and synthesizer sounds of Streets of Philadelphia Sessions, The Lost Albums offer unprecedented context to 35 prolific years of Springsteen’s songwriting and home recording. The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions, Springsteen explained.

Throughout the set, that sonic experimentation takes the form of film soundtrack work (for a movie that was never made) on Faithless, country combos with pedal steel on Somewhere North of Nashville, richly woven border tales on Inyo, orchestra-driven, mid-century noir on Twilight Hours, and E Street-favored rock on Perfect World.

The Lost Albums are available in limited-edition nine-LP and seven-CD formats, including original packaging for each previously unreleased record, along with a 100-page cloth-bound hardcover book featuring rare archival photos, liner notes on each lost album from essayist Erik Flannigan, and a personal introduction from Springsteen himself.
