I’d spent my working life with my voice at the service of my songs, confined by my arrangements, by my melodies, by compositions, and by my constructions,” Springsteen said of the epiphany that led to ‘Only The Strong Survive’. “My voice always came second, third or fourth to those elements.” 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. Throughout his long and exuberant career, Springsteen has, naturally, paid tribute to a vast quantity of other people’s songs. Twist and Shout – the Top Notes via the Beatles – has long been a feature of his live sets. A glance at his gig statistics on Setlist.fm confirms his love for Jimmy Cliff as well as Patti Smith. Folk activist Pete Seeger has already been the subject of a previous Springsteen compendium, We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions (2006).

Customer reviews

Release Bruce Springsteen - Only The Strong Survive (Covers Vol. 1) has the lacquer cut by Chris Bellman (CB in runout) only.

Release Bruce Springsteen - Only The Strong Survive (Covers Vol. 1) has side A lacquer cut by Joe Nino-Hernes (JN-H in runouts) and side B and C by Chris Bellman (CB in runout). Columbia Records, a division of Sony Music Entertainment. Distributed by Columbia Records, a division of Sony Music Entertainment. Sony Music Entertainment International Services GmbH, PO Box 510, 33311 Gütersloh, Germany. Sony Music UK, 2 Canal Reach, Kings Cross, London, N1C 4DB, United Kingdom. Only the Strong Survive, his new album of reverent soul and R&B covers, arrives in this same spirit of nostalgic recollection for the 73-year-old. The album’s first words: “I remember.” Most tunes are from the mid-to-late-Sixties, the formative few years after the 15-year-old Springsteen received his first electric guitar and started carving out his musical identity.

Companies, etc.

A striking feature of Only the Strong Survive, therefore, is that its 15 songs are not the cuts that Springsteen has been delivering with sweat-drenched abandon since the New Jersey club circuit. (There are live albums, bootlegs and YouTube for those.) This release has side A and C lacquer cut by Joe Nino-Hernes (JN-H in runouts) and side B by Chris Bellman (CB in runout).
