Bruce Springsteen announced an expanded release of the Electric Nebraska sessions, including demos and live recordings, with a new version of 'Born in the U.S.A.' showcasing a raw, punk-influenced sound, set for release on October 17.
The super deluxe edition of Prince's album "Diamonds and Pearls" has been released, featuring over seven hours of music, a blu-ray with a live performance, and a detailed hardback book. While the album contains classic tracks like "Gett Off" and "Cream," it also shows signs of being more dated compared to Prince's earlier albums, with a pronounced influence of New Jack Swing. The box set includes outtakes and b-sides that reveal a more hip hop-influenced album that could have been. Despite its flaws, the reissue offers a deep dive into Prince's music and is a delight for fans.
