Bruce Springsteen's
new album, Devils & Dust (Columbia Records) will be released exclusively
in DualDisc format on April 26 in the US, with the full album on CD on
one side of the disc and DVD content on the other side.
The DVD side
will feature the first live performances of Devils & Dust material.
Filmmaker/photographer Danny Clinch captured new, acoustic renditions
of "Devils & Dust," "Long Time Comin'," "Reno,"
All I'm Thinkin' About," and "Matamoras Banks," each with
Springsteen's extensive, personal introductions. The performances were
filmed in New Jersey in February 2005. The DVD side will also contain
the entire album mixed in 5.1 channel surround sound and in stereo.
Springsteen
closed shows from 'The Rising' tour by showing Clinch's black and white,
super 8mm film of the performer singing a country blues version of "Countin'
on a Miracle," a track from 'The Rising.' Danny Clinch has directed
several music films, including "Ben Harper: Pleasure and Pain,"
and has authored two books of photography.
Columbia
Records will also release a deluxe edition of Devils & Dust with bonus
photographs and unique, song specific elements for each of the album's
twelve tracks. The deluxe edition of Devils & Dust will also be released
in DualDisc format.
DualDisc
releases are two-sided discs with a conventional CD side and a DVD side,
allowing artists to use audio and video content on a single two-sided
disc. For more information on DualDisc technology, please log on to http://www.dualdisc.com.
