As informed by Backstreets.com, there was a listening party last night in NYC held at BB King’s club. Bruce, Patti, Jon Landau and Sony chief Don Ienner were there and Bruce and Landau talked about the album. Several songs were heard and they sounded more upbeat and jovial than expected. The sounds of the new album have been described «along the lines of The Band and the collaboration between Wilco and Billy Bragg for the two volumes of Woody Guthrie compositions rather than Springsteen’s contribution for the covers of Seeger songs in 1998».
