A chance find in an airport duty-free store led to a new Bruce arrangement of an obscure Jimmy Cliff song–and an instant fan favorite.

An unfortunate licensing snafu resulted in one of the finest covers of a Springsteen song.

Bruce and Patti deliver a gorgeous cover of Jackson Browne’s “Linda Paloma,” more delicate and soaring than the original.

Recorded live and professionally in Seattle, Vampire Weekend performs an acoustic cover of “I’m Goin’ Down.”

The Bruce Springsteen Band delivers a swinging take on a blues classic.

Vance Joy’s gorgeously shot and sung cover of “Dancing in the Dark” captures the frustration and isolation at the root of Bruce’s greatest hit.

“Many Rivers to Cross” may not be Bruce’s most well-known Jimmy Cliff cover, but it may be his most faithful.

One of many great songs Bruce gave away, “Your Love” is the missing link in a story that begins with “Little White Lies” and ends with “My Love Will Not Let You Down.”

Another dip into the amazing “Back in the U.S.A.” tribute album by Joan Osborne and The Waybacks–this time a slow burn of “Born in the U.S.A.”

Willie Nelson and Emmylou Harris hit a home run with their world-weary take on “Dry Lightning.”
