Bruce Springsteen has shared another rarity from his upcoming Tracks II box set. This one is called ‘Sunday Love’, and it’s a gentle, jazzy cut from his lost album Twilight Hours. Check it out below.
Recorded around the time that he was making 2019’s Western Stars, Twilight Hours was inspired by the California pop of the ’60s and ’70s. Collaborators include the E Street Band’s Max Weinberg, Patti Scialfa, and Soozie Tyrell, Kaveh Rastegar and Scott Tibbs, and producer Ron Aniello. “At one time it was either a double record [with Western Stars] or they were part of the same record,” Springsteen explained in press materials. “I love Burt Bacharach, and I love those kinds of songs and those kinds of songwriters. I took a swing at it because the chordal structures and everything are much more complicated, which was fun for me to pull off. All this stuff could have come right off of those ’60s albums.”
Tracks II: The Lost Albums is slated for release on June 27. So far, the Boss has shared the title track from Faithless, the score to a movie that never got made; ‘Blind Spot’ from Streets of Philadelphia Sessions; ‘Rain in the River’ from the compilation Perfect World; ‘Repo Man’ from Somewhere North of Nashville; and ‘Adelita’ from Inyo.
