Bruce Springsteen knows what Bruce Springsteen fans want. And that is more Bruce Springsteen.

The singer, also known as The Boss, will release seven new studio albums, as a “Tracks II: The Lost Albums” set, on June 27. It will contain material written and re-recorded between 1983 and 2018.

The news arrived this week via Instagram. The 83-song collection is mostly previously unreleased tracks, 74 of them never-before-heard songs, in a box set that includes a 100-page hardcover book.

In a video, the 75-year-old American explained on Thursday: “I often read about myself in the 90s as having some lost period or something. Really, I was working the whole time.

I built up a small collection of full albums that, for one reason or another, never got put out.

“During the pandemic, what I did for that period of time was I finished everything I had in my vault.
