VARIOUS ARTISTS - SPRINGSTEEN’S COUNTRY
Back in 2022 Ace Records released Ladies Sing The Boss which, as the title suggests, featured artists like the Patti Smith Group,
Lucinda Williams, Emmylou Harris and Bettye Lavette serving up their interpretations of classic Bruce Springsteen songs.
That collection was compiled by Sean Rowley who now returns with Springsteen’s Country, where artists including Johnny Cash,
Travis Tritt, Kenny Chesney, Neal Coty and Sonny Burgess shine their own light into Springsteen’s songwriting attic to offer up
their own unique interpretations.
It’s a fantastic collection of songs that reveal not only the skill of Springsteen as a songwriter, but how those songs can be
revitalised by being framed in a different musical setting.This compilation shows the lasting impact Springsteen has made on the country music community, but it’s not only his
songs that cut through. There’s something in his persona that connects and he’s been almost elevated to the stuff of
country legend. Blue-collar, hard-working, integrity, heart on his sleeve, the myth of Springsteen is just sometimes too
good to be true.
