Magic, Bruce Springsteen's new studio recording and his first with the E Street Band in five years, is set for release by Columbia records on October 2, 2007. Produced and mixed by Brendan O'Brien, the album features eleven new Springsteen songs and was recorded at southern tracks recording studio in Atlanta, Ga.
Amazon.com:
Thirty-five years as a justifiable rock musician allows Bruce Springsteen an opinion on the state of over-the-air radio, and he takes it--and takes the medium to the woodshed on the ruthless "Radio Nowhere." The opening smash sets the tone, with the ageless Boss wondering, "Is there anybody out there?" before imploring, "I just want to hear some rhythm." Then, with E Street Band in tow, Springsteen goes on to retrace every step between here and Greetings from Asbury Park, hand-delivering more could-be, would-be hits than anything he's done since Born in the USA. Credit producer Brendan O'Brien for the wall of sound that backs "Girls in Their Summer Clothes," which sets the atmosphere for one of the great vocal performances by Springsteen, who plays the misfit "in the cool of the evening light" watching the girls "pass me by." With piano, glockenspiel, and infinite guitars, the rocker "I'll Work for Your Love" recalls The River, with Springsteen even settling for blue-collar hero in matters of the heart. "Livin' in the Future" could be an out-take from Darkness on the Edge of Town, with shades of Election Day blasting away with the boastful sax of Clarence Clemons and Little Steven's relentless backing vocals. There's even a hint of Nebraska on "Terry's Song," an earnest (and mostly solo) accolade with Springsteen acknowledging the death of a friend: "When they built you, brother/They broke the mold." The hidden track closes this unforeseen comeback, and for 48 minutes the nearly 60-year-old Bruce Springsteen sounds 35 again. --Scott Holter

Bought the CD for my husband who loves it, and he has a lot of Bruce.
I have downloaded it to my Ipod and have started to listen to it. Some really fine songs on it, but I have not played enough to give a more detailed review. If hubby is happy, it was well worth the purchase!

I have been waiting for a release for Bruce that would sit well with me. This one is it. Radio Nowhere, Girls in their Summer Clothes, Last to Die are a few of my favorites, totally ear candy. Great political themes, and Bruce still has it and will continue to, because he is the boss.
I do have to admit the production of this cd is a bit overboard, all the instruments have the same loudness...which is a bit odd, but who cares, it's still Bruce! Awesome and a must buy.

Bruce lost me as a fan with the release of CD "Human Touch" and the song "57 Channels" but I still enjoyed his old stuff.
I took a chance on this CD after hearing good things and it didn't disappoint.
Good from start to finish and like the Boss' old stuff.
"Girls in Their Summer Clothes" is a great summer song.
One of the memorable CD's from 2007 for me.

... I can't take all these rave reviews. This is the same "go thru the motions" Bruce songwriting that he's been doing for years. Bruce is a legend and is great, but if you think this album has anything new, I totally disagree. It's the same ole 3-4 chord, "oh yeah baby", rockin' bruce as always. pass. dylan had a lot of dull years too, don't cry.

I can say that some of the songs on this cd do not really get me going, but as a lifelong Springsteen fan, my copy sounds perfect and I say him live during this tour and it was also my first concert ever and my only regret was not being able to go to 3 or 4 concerts in a row . Freaking incredible.
Even if you dont love a song or two on this album , they all still have that special something that makes my 3year old daughter just stand up and jam out
