Springsteen lost and found: The Promise

Listen on NPR until Nov 16.

Tracks written, recorded, abandoned, shelved or reworked in the period between Born To Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town, 1976-77, reveal the range of experimentation, mood, and even playfulness of Springsteen's band while they toured waited for lawyers to settle a lawsuit.

Man, was that really 35 years ago? When Springsteen released Born to Run, 35-year-old music was Artie Shaw and Bing Crosby.
