Seven unreleased Bruce Springsteen albums recorded between 1983 and 2018!? Featuring 82 songs, Tracks II: The Lost Albums offers an unprecedented look into Springsteen’s creative world.
Bruce Springsteen fans, take note - one of the most exciting archival releases in recent memory is here.
Tracks II: The Lost Albums brings together seven previously unreleased Springsteen records, recorded between 1983 and 2018. This extraordinary box set features 82 unreleased songs, each offering a deeper look into Bruce’s creative journey over three and a half decades.
“The Lost Albums were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released. I’ve played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I’m glad you’ll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.”
From the raw, lo-fi textures of LA Garage Sessions '83 - bridging the gap between Nebraska and Born in the U.S.A. - to the layered drum loops and synths of the Streets of Philadelphia Sessions, this collection shines a light on the quieter corners of Bruce’s expansive catalogue.
These songs aren’t just demos or rough takes. They’re fully realised albums that never saw the light of day - until now.
“The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions.”
And that musical freedom is on full display. Across the set, you’ll find:
The box set is available in two editions:
Both versions feature original packaging for each album, a beautifully produced 100-page hardcover book, rare archival photos, detailed liner notes by Erik Flannigan, and a personal introduction from Bruce himself.
At Badlands, we’re also offering a limited exclusive version that includes a unique 12x12 art print.
If you're after a highlights version, there's also Lost and Found - a curated selection of 20 unreleased songs from the full box set. It’s available on 2LP vinyl or CD, and still includes Bruce’s personal introduction.
Whether you're a lifelong fan or diving into the deeper corners of Bruce’s music for the first time, Tracks II: The Lost Albums is a remarkable release. It fills in the gaps, answers old questions, and introduces entirely new sounds - all from one of the greatest storytellers in music.
