Springsteen Talks Rarities Album

Bruce Springsteen has been speaking to Rolling Stone about his forthcoming new outtakes album, The Promise.

The Promise is released on 15 November and contains 21 tracks that were recorded during the Darkness On The Edge Of Town album sessions.

"Rather than being a record of outtakes, it's a separate record. It's a fully realized, separate piece of our history," Springsteen says in The Promise trailer above — the first of several exclusive items about the release you’ll see on RollingStone.com in the coming weeks.

"It was sort of a collection of material that ... the one thing it had in common was that it didn't get on the record, which meant it was probably a little more maybe genre-based soul music, garage rock. Amazingly, when we put it all together, you realize it holds up as a double record pretty well."
