Now Downloading: New Releases 11.16.10

The list for new releases shrinks as the compilations, box sets and reissues pile grows and grows. Bruce Springsteen's The Promise would make a great gift, as would the lovingly packaged reissue of Jim Sullivan's U.F.O.. When Black Friday falls you know it's got to be... don't let it fall on me.

Playlist: New Releases 11.16.10


Bruce Springsteen - The Promise
Stream / Purchase [mp3]

Bruce Springsteen - The PromiseI've written at least four different posts related to this release already, so no need to retread familiar ground. The theoretically administered moniker of "greatest album never released" can no longer be used as it goes out and into the world.

Jim Sullivan - U.F.O.
Stream / Purchase [mp3]

Jim Sullivan - UFOI haven't had enough time with this to give this lost gem it's full due, so instead I'll direct you to the story behind the reissue, written in first person by my old friend Matt Sullivan, co-founder/owner of Light in the Attic Records. It reminds us of the lengths we'll go to for music that we love.

Matt's girlfriend is director Jennifer Maas (Wheedle's Groove) and she was along to film much of the adventure:
