Somewhere North of Nashville is leftovers from Western Stars I’d think

It seems that is an album recorded at the same time than 'The Ghost of Tom Joad'.
Faithless was recorded on 1993/1994
Inyo recorded around 2010.

So the last of the list, Perfect World, could be contemporary to Western Stars.

This is the CD boxset.
Very high prices, more than 250 euros for 7 CD or more than 300 euros for 9 LP.



TRACKS II: THE LOST ALBUMS are seven unreleased Bruce Springsteen albums recorded between 1983-2018. With 82 new songs, The Lost Albums completes chapters of Springsteen's extensive trajectory, while offering a valuable insight into his life and work as an artist. «The Lost Albums were complete records, some of them included until they were mixed and not published», says Springsteen. «He played this song for me and for many close friends for years. I'm glad that you finally have the opportunity to listen to them. I hope you enjoy them.” From the lo-fi exploration of LA Garage Sessions '83, which serves as a crucial link between Nebraska and Born in the U.S.A., to the drum and synthesizer sounds of Streets of Philadelphia Sessions, The Lost Albums offers a context without precedent for Springsteen's 35 prolific years of composition and home recording. “The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go in a wide variety of different musical directions,” Springsteen explained. Throughout the album, this sonic experiment takes the form of film soundtracks (for a film that is never seen) in Faithless, country combos with pedal steel in Somewhere North of Nashville, frontier stories richly woven in Inyo, mid-sixth-century noir music with orchestra in Twilight Hours and E Street's favourite rock in Perfect World. The Lost Albums are available in a limited edition of a nine LP and seven CDs, including the original packaging of each unreleased album, with a hardcover book bound on a 100-page canvas with photos from a few common archives, notes on each lost album by essayist Erik Flannigan and a personal introduction about Springsteen's own project.

In the U.S, $300 for seven CDs -- about $43 a CD -- is pretty steep, even if it does come in a very nice box . . .

I'm sure it will sell and I'm sure it will be of great quality, but I wonder about the pricing. Doesn't seem like the artists are showing a lot of concern for their fans and their ability to afford sets like this.

The marketing for this quotes Springsteen saying, “The Lost Albums were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released. 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.”

Unfortunately for me, at that price, I won't be one of the ones to "enjoy them."

Maybe I'm just OTL, but I was 21 when "Born to Run" was released and think I may be in the same demographic that the majority of his fans are who would consider buying this box. But I'm also retired and live on a budget. I'm guessing a lot of my contemporaries would have to think twice (probably a few more times) before spending $300 on seven CDs.

Bruce Springsteen's net worth in 2025 is estimated to be $1.2 billion, according to Forbes. He's not doing this to put food on the table, so what is the motivation for the pricing?

Stop crying about the pricing. Just wait what the street price will look like a couple of month after the box is released.

I'm still waiting for the E Street Band arrangements of the Nebraska material to be released. C'mon already...

Rain in the river - not that great. Cool for two verses - but tooo easy to please me.

I am wondering if the unreleased songs were concerned by this agreement.

Seems so, since this 'Tracks II: The Lost Albums' release is by Columbia Records, which is a label by Sony Music - [Qobuz.com] , [Music.Apple.com] , [open.Spotify.com] .

Tracks 2 has been expected for a very long time now. I think it was in his contracts that were released publicly like a decade ago? The most surprising thing about this is that its actually finally coming out. Steep price, I'll just stream it.

I understand why there's a majority segment that wants that, and its probably right to just come out at some point, but selfishly I'd like it to stay locked up. Nebraska is just so perfect as is, I know releasing the electric stuff doesn't taint that, but I just like the mystique of the right material coming out. I guess I just personally don't need to hear what it sounded like in the studio with the band. We have live versions of those songs, and Nebraska is too perfect for me to hear it any other way. But I'm aware thats very selfish and also not rooted in a ton of reality.

The first song in the trailer, idk what that is but I already like it

Why not re-release Nebraska as an anniversary edition with the bonus electric tracks? We've had re-releases of great albums by other artists including our Rolling Stones with (quote un quote) improved sound and bonus tracks/outtakes like Exile, Sticky Fingers, Some Girls, etc

Again, its just personal to me and other fans that those other albums don't have the mystique of Nebraska. Its a rare album where I just personally never need to hear what didn't make it. It was recorded and kept solo for a reason, but I know that's just me. I can't think of many other albums I wouldn't want to break the illusion on. Maybe something like Dark Side Of The Moon or something.

My thoughts exactly - they're trying to recoup their investment.

First time on stage, ever.
They were fast!
