in News

Bruce Springsteen is continuing his somewhat new tradition of performing “out of the box” covers at his shows. The Boss opened his Dallas show in Sunday with Van Halen’s ‘Jump’.

Springsteen was performing Australian classics during his recent Aussie tour including INXS ‘Don’t Change’, The Easybeats ‘Friday On My Mind’ and AC/DC’s ‘Highway To Hell’.

His most recent album ‘High Hopes’ has a cover of Brisbane’s The Saints’ ‘Just Like Fire Would’.

Springsteen performed his first show on US soil for 2014 at Reunion Park, Dallas.

Bruce Springsteen Marks 30 Years Of The Ghost Of Tom Joad

It has now been 30 years since Bruce Springsteen released The Ghost Of Tom Joad, a stark and deeply human record that shifted him away from stadium anthems and back into the quiet, shadowy corners of American storytelling. Released on 21 November 1995, the album arrived at a moment when Springsteen had just reunited in the studio with The E Street Band for part of his Greatest Hits collection, yet he chose to follow that reunion not with bombast, but with one of the most intimate projects of his career.
