Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Bruce Springsteen's 'Magic' Set for October 2 Release on Columbia Records 'Magic,' Bruce Springsteen's new studio recording and his first with the E Street Band in five years, is set for release by Columbia Records on October 2, 2007. Produced and mixed by Brendan O'Brien, the album features eleven new Springsteen songs and was recorded at Southern Tracks Recording Studio in Atlanta, GA. 'Magic' Song Titles: 1. Radio Nowhere 2. You'll Be Comin' Down 3. Livin' in the Future 4. Your Own Worst Enemy 5. Gypsy Biker 6. Girls in Their Summer Clothes 7. I'll Work for Your Love 8. Magic 9. Last to Die 10. Long Walk Home 11. Devil's Arcade 'Magic' is the first new studio album by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band since 2002's GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum, number one album 'The Rising' (Columbia Records), which was also produced by O'Brien. Bruce Springsteen's longtime manager Jon Landau said, "'Magic' is a high energy rock CD. It’s light on its feet, incredibly well played by Bruce and the members of the E Street Band, and, as always, has plenty to say. It’s also immensely entertaining. 'Magic' is the third collaboration between Bruce and Brendan O'Brien and is a culmination of their very productive creative relationship." Don't even try to get in my way when I am in line getting this album!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Billboard reports that Bruce Springsteen's new album, Magic, will be released on vinyl a week ahead of its October 2 release date. The September 25 vinyl release will allow the record to be eligible for the 2007 Grammys, as September 30 is the deadline for eligibility. Totally cool that it's coming out on vinyl!!

RonJonSurfer Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I'll give you this....Bruce is as hard to understand on this song as he is on any song he has ever done....really a decent effort and, you know, I'm not the biggest Bruce fan in Jersey.

Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 WEll I will keep my opinion of this new song to myself.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 It's all right. A little reminiscent of the "Born in The USA" album. Good car tune, but otherwise, eh. It probably would rock in a stadium full of people though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I like Bruce more with the E Street Band than his solo stuff....I listened to the clip and it's okay for an old rocker like him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 WEll I will keep my opinion of this new song to myself.... Nah, let 'er rip...good or bad...it's your opinion and that's what matters to us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 You are one of the few RJ...one of the few...and thank you for that, very kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I actually really liked it. I mean, the sound quality wasn't great, but that's what you get from a clip that probably isn't supposed to be there. I thought it sounded like E-Street meets Crazy Horse, and I will be buying this album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Being a Bruce fan and I know you are, did you feel that the words didn't fit with the flow of the music? I have listened to it about 10 times now and focusing on the lyrics and the music in some ways seems too fast for the lyrics. I was also disappointed that Clarence seemed drowned out by drums and guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 (edited) I did notice that, I really do wish the lyrics (and the big man) were sharper, but I'd be interested to hear the CD before I make judgments on the mix, because I really do think that that was a poor quality leaked version of the song. Oh, and the tour dates are out, and guess what? He's not coming here. This is not my day. } http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2007/08/28/bruce-springsteen-announces-fall-tour-dates-new-single-available-today/ Edited August 28, 2007 by Guest Added tour info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Oh I can't make a final judgement either until I have the album in my hands, and I am thrilled it is coming out on vinyl! I guess when it comes to Bruce I have very high expectations when I learn that he is putting out a new album. This single just struck me a different. But then I didn't care for The River album, but I am still a fan. Sorry he won't be heading your way. We will just head to RJ's he is going to be in Jersey!

TheLizard Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 But then I didn't care for The River album, but I am still a fan. Really? I love The River. Of course, I do worship the man probably more than is healthy, but still, I think it's a great album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 I bet Bruce would be happy to know he has a fan like you! I say let's all head to Jersey and party with The Boss!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 I will say though, while I hate to criticize The Boss, what is "the working man's rock star" thinking? Skipping out on the south to go to Paris and Oslo? Lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 Oh Sure...again RJ gets all the fun! .... that's it...I'm moving! Yes, I heard one of Bruce's stops was my basement. I thought that was sporting of the band and I will attend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 I am going to get kicked out of Jersey for admitting this, but I have never been to a Bruce concert. I would like to go this time....we'll see. It will probably cost a lot, but since he gives 4 hour concerts, it'll be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
