Bruce Springsteen's 'High Hopes' Delivers

Soundcheck | Jan 14, 2014

Today, Bruce Springsteen officially released his 18^th album, High Hopes. “Officially” means just that — the album has been streaming online and floating around on file-sharing services after a much-publicized leak by Amazon in late December. That’s given Springsteen fans time to spend with this odd creature of an album something of an odd creature.

Billboard’s Caryn Rose shares her reaction to High Hopes.
