About
Tracks is a four-disc box set by Bruce Springsteen, released in 1998 containing 66 songs. This box set mostly consists of never-before-released songs recorded during the sessions for his many albums, but also includes a number of single B-sides, as well as demos and alternate versions of already-released material. The collection starts with songs from Springsteen's audition for John Hammond, the legendary producer who also discovered Bob Dylan, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, and ends with songs recorded in the late '90s. The set includes mainly unreleased material as well as rare B-sides. As the sleevenotes mention, Springsteen was in the habit of producing albums that were thematically linked even if they were not strictly concept albums; so some tracks that "didn't fit" the theme of the album ended up orphaned. The four-disc box set was later condensed into an album called 18 Tracks, with 3 songs not on the 4-cd box set.
