The Future of Rock’n Roll: 70’s to 80’s

~ Release by Bruce Springsteen (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

Notes from Lost In The Flood:
Impossibly rare Japan-only promotional release compiling an impressive 28 tracks from Bruce's first nine albums plus two 1988 live B-sides. Rather unspectacular overall packaging features an illustration of a guitar on front and tracklisting on rear, with the main portion of the lettering being in English and only a few lines of small Japanese graphics added (no obi). The scarcest of all Springsteen promo CD's, and no doubt superior to Bruce's commercial "Greatest Hits" album in terms of song selection!

A-1,9,13, B-1,4,6,8,10,16 from "Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band Live 1975-85"
B-14,15 from "Tunnel of Love Express"
Very rare Japan only promo sampler - no OBI
