BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN AND THE E STREET BAND:
LIVE IN NEW YORK CITY 19-SONG DOUBLE CD
IS SET FOR APRIL 3RD RELEASE

at Madison Square Garden

Broadcast and Double CD to Feature
World Premiere of New Bruce Springsteen Songs

"Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band: Live in New York City" has been confirmed for an April 3rd release on Columbia Records.
The double CD will serve as the soundtrack for a broadcast version of "Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band," which will debut on HBO April 7th, at 9pm EST. The live CDs also include six additional recordings which do not
appear on the HBO special. In all, the two CDs will feature 19 songs and over 130 minutes of music recorded during the final two nights of
Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band's 1999-2000 world tour.
These two concerts, which took place at Madison Square Garden on June 29 and July 1, marked the finale of a world tour that had begun in April of 1999 in Barcelona, Spain. The 13 songs that appear on both the HBO broadcast and
the double CD are as follows: "My Love Will Not Let You Down," "Prove It All Night," "Two Hearts," "Atlantic City," "Mansion On The Hill,"
"The River," "Youngstown," "Murder Incorporated," "Badlands," "Out In The Street," "Tenth Avenue Freeze-out," "Land Of Hope And Dreams"
and "American Skin."
Two new Bruce Springsteen songs will world premiere in the film and on its soundtrack. The first, "Land Of Hope And Dreams," was debuted as the tour began, and became a signature of the shows, performed each night as an encore. The song's themes of redemption and community served as a mirror
to the tour that was underway -- Springsteen's first extended series of concerts together with The E Street Band in over a decade.

The second new song premiered is "American Skin." This haunting track was debuted on tour during a June 4th concert in Atlanta, and was subsequently
described as "astonishing" by The New York Post's Jack Newfield. Jon Pareles of The New York Times praised the song as "a resonant elegy and a
reflection on how fear can become deadly." Six additional songs have been confirmed to appear only on the double CD, and they are as follows: "Lost In The Flood," "Born In The U.S.A." "Don't Look Back," "Jungleland," "Ramrod" and "If I Should Fall Behind."
In all, 14 of the 19 songs on the double CD represent first-ever releases of concert
performances by Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band.
The double CD "Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band: Live in New York City" was produced by Bruce Springsteen and Chuck Plotkin.
It was recorded by Toby Scott and mixed by Bob Clearmountain.
The exclusive HBO broadcast, which consists of a 13-song,
edited version of the legendary closing night shows at Madison Square Garden,
was produced by Bruce Springsteen, Jon Landau and George Travis. The film was
directed by Chris Hilson and edited by Thom Zimny.
The film's audio credits are the same as those for the double CD.

The triumphant, sold-out set of ten shows at Madison Square Garden marked Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band's first series of Madison Square Garden concerts since 1988's "Tunnel Of Love Express" tour, and cemented
their Number One position on Pollstar's tracking of the Top Ten tours of the first half of 2000. In a New York concert review, USA Today's Elysa Gardner wrote "whether standing still at his mike or cavorting naughtily with his bandmates, Springsteen was both a showman and a shaman, capturing the blend of sex,
spirituality and empathy that is the essence of rock 'n' roll and of most great live entertainment."
