Ranging from songs originally released by The Rolling Stones to Roy Orbison to The Pogues, the recordings on “The Live Series: Songs Under Cover, Vol. 3” demonstrate Springsteen’s ability to interpret songs of any style. Available now on streaming for the first time below.
The new album is called Songs Under Cover, Vol. 3, which, as its title implies, is a third compilation of songs by other artists that Bruce has performed in concert.
Songs Under Cover, Vol. 3 is available now as a digital download and via various streaming outlets.
The 15-track album spans nearly 50 years, from a December 1975 rendition of the 1964 Shirelles gem “Sha-La-La” in Greenvale, New York, through Springsteen and the E Street Band’s cover of Ray Parker Jr.’s “Ghostbusters” theme this year at a Halloween show in Montreal, Canada.

It was a busy year for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, and it looks like 2025 will be just as jam-packed. According to a press release recapping the Boss’ 2024, next year will find the 75-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend extending his global tour with the band, as well as celebrating some milestones and dusting off unheard gems from the archives as Billboard reports.
“Upcoming releases in 2025 will include a look back at Springsteen’s storied recoding career, featuring never-before-heard material,” read the release, which did not specify when the songs are from or what format they will be released in. In 1998, Springsteen dropped the hefty four-disc box set Tracks, which featured 66 songs, mostly never-before-released, as well as b-sides, demos and alternate versions of previously released material.
It also noted that Springsteen will “continue his involvement” in the upcoming biopic Deliver Me From Nowhere, in which The Bear star Jeremy Allen White will portray a young Bruce.
Next year will include a celebration of the 50th anniversary of Springsteen’s landmark 1975 album Born To Run, which helped turn Bruce into a rock legend thanks to such beloved classics as the title track, “Thunder Road,” “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out,” “Backstreets” and “Jungleland,” among others.
Other anniversaries that will be marked in 2025 include the 45th anniversary of 1980’s double-album masterpiece The River, as well as the 30th anniversary of the Grammy-winning acoustic folk rock album The Ghost of Tom Joad and the 20th of 2005’s Devils & Dust.
2025 will find Springsteen returning to Europe to perform 16 shows in six countries with The E Street Band. He’ll also continue his involvement in the upcoming biopic “Deliver Me From Nowhere,” which stars Jeremy Allen White as Springsteen and is currently filming on the Jersey Shore. Springsteen’s “Born to Run” will celebrate its 50th anniversary next year, in addition to milestones for “The River,” “The Ghost of Tom Joad” and “Devils & Dust.” Upcoming releases in 2025 will include a look back at Springsteen’s storied recording career, featuring never-before-heard material.
