New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Bruce Springsteen's "
Faithless" - a long-lost film soundtrack to a movie that was never made - will be released in full on "Tracks II: The Lost Albums," coming June 27 via Sony Music. A meditation on purpose, belief and acceptance — intended to accompany a film described as a "spiritual Western" — Springsteen recorded much of "
Faithless" between the conclusion of the "
Devils & Dust" tour in November 2005 and the release of "
We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions" in April 2006. Throughout the collection's 11 songs — including four pieces of instrumental music, written as interstitial pieces for the film — "
Faithless" explores Springsteen's unique vision of spirituality in the mythic American West, while working inside of this uncharted artistic medium.
"This was a really unusual collection of songs," Springsteen remembers. With all of "
Faithless" composed before a single frame of the film was shot — over a prolific two weeks in Florida — he explains of the results: "You could recognize details and maybe a character or two. But for the most part, I just wrote atmospheric music that I thought would fit." The album was recorded primarily as a solo pursuit, with appearances throughout by producer Ron Aniello, touring members of The E Street Band — Soozie Tyrell, Lisa Lowell, Curtis King, Jr., Michelle Moore and Ada Dyer — as well as contributions from Patti Scialfa, Evan Springsteen and Sam Springsteen. Listen to the album's title track "
Faithless" here:
"
Faithless" is the third song to be shared from "Tracks II" following "Rain in the River" from the lost album "
Perfect World" and "Blind Spot" from "Streets of Philadelphia Sessions." In addition to those three collections, "Tracks II: The Lost Albums" will include Springsteen's never-heard full-length records "Somewhere North of Nashville," "Inyo," "Twilight Hours" and "LA Garage Sessions '83." The set will arrive in limited-edition nine LP, seven CD and digital formats — including distinctive packaging for each previously-unreleased record and a 100-page cloth-bound, hardcover book featuring rare archival photos, liner notes on each lost album from essayist Erik Flannigan and a personal introduction on the project from Springsteen himself.
