Bruce Springsteen recorded an album of soul covers. Tackling the music of Smokey Robinson, Levi Stubbs, Sam Moore, and the Supremes taught him something: He actually has a decent voice.
In a video announcing the album, he says, quote, “In my own memoir, I gave my voice a little short shrift by saying I didn’t think I had much of one. “I decided to do something I had never done before, make some music that is centered around singing, around challenging my voice. After listening to some of the things we cut, I thought, ‘My voice is badass! I’m 73 years old. I’m kicking ass.'”
The album is called “Only the Strong Survive”, and it’s dropping on November 11th.
