Bruce Springsteen – Only The Strong Survive (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Springsteen has always worn his soul influences on his sleeve, from the way he structured his legendary marathon sets to the deep catalog knowledge he'd display on his old WFMU broadcasts. Stepping fully into that tradition, he brings the same reverence for Black American music here that shaped his earliest work in Asbury Park, treating these classics not as nostalgia but as living repertoire.
Only The Strong Survive is the new album from Bruce Springsteen, and his first new studio album since 2020’s Letter To You. The album is a collection of soul music gems, that celebrate the legendary songbooks of Gamble and Huff, Motown, Stax and many more.
Only The Strong Survive features vocals from Springsteen and instrumentation primarily from his longtime producer Ron Aniello. The album also features guest vocals from Sam Moore, as well as contributions from The E Street Horns, full string arrangements by Rob Mathes and backing vocals from Soozie Tyrell, Lisa Lowell, Michelle Moore, Curtis King Jr., Fonzi Thornton and Dennis Collins.
