Springsteen's Major Announcement Sends Boss Fans into a Frenzy
fans are in a frenzy after the 'Glory Days' rocker teased plans for a new release, likely featuring some of his most sought-after recordings from the vault, due on Thursday, April 3.
Springsteen announced the project, Tracks II, just one day prior, on Wednesday, April 2, in posts on his social media channels that featured a short video with various clues about the release. It featured an unreleased instrumental track that was reminiscent of the song 'Easy Money' from his Wrecking Ball album.

'FINALLY! I really hope Electric Nebraska is finally included and released. I mean it does say lost albums,' one fan commented, referring to the long rumored electric version of Springsteen's 1982 solo acoustic album.
'Bruce bringing the happiness & hope to this crazy world. Thank you Bruce, this is beyond exciting ❤️,' another fan responded.
'I am crying over here. This is utterly amazing ❤️🙌,' a third fan posted.
The tease also included a link to a website, that offered additional clues, including a recording sheet from his Thrill Hill Recording studio that included the dates 1983-2018, along with a form for fans to join a mailing list.
Fans also noted that the tease included what looked like the original lyric sheet for the song 'Delivery Man,' a cut that didn't make it onto 1983's Born in the U.S.A. album, along with a piece of studio notes from the 1993 sessions that resulted in the song 'Streets of Philadelphia.'
Springsteen released the first Tracks collection, a four-CD set of unreleased outtakes, in 1998 and also included previously unreleased bonus tracks on the reissues of classic albums Darkness on the Edge of Town and The River.
