Born in the AUS: New Springsteen Comp Bows for Down Under Tour

March 15, 2013 By Mike Duquette 1 Comment

Springsteen AustraliaIf you're a new fan of Bruce Springsteen in Australia, or a hardcore collector who wants everything ever released on behalf of The Boss, have we got a title for you.

In honor of Springsteen's Australian leg of the Wrecking Ball Tour, which kicked off last night in Brisbane and continues through the end of the month, Sony Music's Australian arm is releasing a new single-disc compilation that collects all his biggest hits in advance of the next few live dates - which, if they're anything like the other dozens of shows on this tour, will be electrifying and lengthy. (In August, a show in Helsinki, Finland was the longest Bruce and The E Street Band have ever put on, lasting just over four hours!)

While there's of course nothing new or rare to find here (think of it as an update on that European hits set from a few years ago that was also controversially released as a Walmart exclusive), it's the first comp to include two tracks from his most recent LP, last year's Wrecking Ball (the title track and lead single "We Take Care of Our Own"). And with the exception of 1992's Lucky Town and Springsteen's folk LPs of the 2000s (Devils & Dust (2005) and We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions (2006)), every album since 1973's The Wild, The Innocent and The E Street Shuffle is represented herein.

Collection: 1973-2012 is yours to peruse and order from Amazon after the jump.

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
