As Bruce has been playing a fair few supprise Cover versions at the Australian Shows he has continued the trend,Now the tour moves back to his homeland and he started the Dallas Capital One Jam Festival with Van Halen’s JUMP . the tour continues to add dates across the USA. Little Steven is still on filming duty with the hugely popular TV series  Lillehammer, but it appears Patti is back on stage with the band. The E Street Band are about to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Bruce seemed to Love touring Australia and each night he promised a few suprises like covers from well known Australian Bands, so we had AC/DC Highway To Hell, BEE GEES Stayin Alive and The SAINTS Just Like Fire Would and INXS Dont Change……….so from the Boss’s Own You Tube Channel come the INXS track

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN finally includes this track on the HIGH HOPES album, a cover of the song from the band SUICIDE regarded as a classic album. Suicide were a electronic punk  duo of Alan Vega and Martin Rev from their 1977 debut album, Bruce performed this track on the Devils and Dust Tour in 2005 , but recently has returned to adding it to some of his live shows with Bruce playing a foot pumped Harmonium, which adds to the songs dreaminess and stark sound

“American Beauty” is an EP to be released for Record Store day on the 19th April, The sleeve artwork is unusual in the fact that most Bruce Springsteen releases have had a picture of “the Boss” on Them, so this one features a pretty girl siting on the bonnet of a Chevy.

Born in Johannesburg South Africa,but now calling Colorado his home, he has been travelling all of his life with songs that have a masterful quality telling stories of miles and landscapes with echoes of Cohen and Springsteen.
