Bruce Springsteen.
hot on the heels of his covers album "only the strong survive" he has two albums on the way for 2023.
first up another covers album of r+b/soul classics much in the same vein as the other one.
he also has a box set of five previously unreleased albums on the way that were recorded post 1988, apparently one of those albums is Bruce with a drum machine and synths.

The irrepressible Zombies are at it again - with big grins all round! Lol! Love that they are so up for it. The jury is out until hearing the whole album - here's a track ... Colin and Rod sharing vocals ...
And this is the album cover ... their tour van caught alight in Arizona somewhere and Rod took the photo. I think they've got to the stage of being 100% comfortable in their skins and so what if nobody else likes it, or if they're anachronisms - they're just gonna do what they do best until they don't anymore. All anyone can do, really.

This is a surprise - coming so hot on the heels of the previous one! Jethro Tull's new album RökFlöte is in the works - due out on the 21st of April.
From Prog magazine - https://www.loudersound.com/news/jethro-...innungagap - "... a 12-track record based on the characters and roles of some of the principle gods of the old Norse form of paganism, while at the same time exploring the RökFlöte, or rock flute, which of course Tull has made iconic."
The teaser track, "Ginnungagap" (in Norse and Germanic mythology, the void in which the world was created). I like knowing that the whole thing will be thoroughly well researched - tricky as Ian Anderson may be, he's meticulous - in terms of concept, at least! Not without missteps along the way, but after all, who is faultless?? (Comebacks anticipated ...  )

The album is due out tomorrow and I can't stop listening to this track ... unusual and quite lovely, IMHO ...

Peter Gabriel is preparing to release a new album - The Panopticom. He's publishing a new song on the full moon of each month - this is the second ...
Here's a quote from, and a link to his site which provides a lot more info ... https://petergabriel.com/news/panopticom-released/
‘Some of what I’m writing about this time is the idea that we seem incredibly capable of destroying the planet that gave us birth and that unless we find ways to reconnect ourselves to nature and to the natural world we are going to lose a lot. A simple way of thinking about where we fit in to all of this is looking up at the sky… and the moon has always drawn me to it.’
And an interview here in case anyone is interested ...
