Bruce Springsteen fans have reason to rejoice this fall.
On Sept. 27, Springsteen will release his 500-page autobiography, “Born to Run,” while four days prior comes an 18-track musical companion called “Chapter and Verse.”
The album will include five previously unreleased songs that mirror themes and sections of the book. The collection includes a couple of tracks from Springsteen’s high school band, The Castiles, as well as recordings from Steel Mill and The Bruce Springsteen Band.
“Chapter and Verse” will be available as a single CD and double LP – with lyrics and rare photos - as well as digital download.
Next year, Springsteen is expected to release a solo album, which his manger Jon Landau told Billboard will be "a very expansive record, a very rich record."
