Bruce Springsteen bootlegs are hardly news, but when the man himself is releasing a trove of recordings in various formats, that’s worth our attention.

Springsteen has launched the site live.brucespringsteen.net, where he has made available a never-before-released live recording of a show from The Apollo Theater on March 9, 2012, with the E Street Band. (That concert prefaced the official kickoff of the "Wrecking Ball" tour at Philips Arena on March 18.)

Along with that performance, Springsteen has also released live recordings from 30 concerts on the 2014 “High Hopes” tour as well as his entire album catalog.

His April 26 show at Aaron’s Amphitheatre at Lakewood is among the selections for $9.95 for MP3s, $12.95 for lossless CD-quality, $19.95 for HD-Audio and $23 for a multiple-CD set with custom artwork.

All of the concerts are available in the various formats, but album options vary.
