Springsteen to re-release "The Seeger Sessions" with new material (1 Viewer)

[Paul McElligott]

Bruce Springsteen will be re-releasing "The Seeger Sessions on Oct. 3, 2006, with three new songs plus the two songs from the DVD side of the previous DualDisc release.

This version will not be a DualDisc but it will come with a DVD with new video material, including live concert footage and music videos, as well as an extended version of the documentary from the original release.

Will there be a trade-in program (yea sure) or is this yet another opportunity to buy the same thing again to get a little additional material?

 

[Colin Jacobson]

Methinks the latter. How often do trade-ins occur? Rarely if ever...

 

[Albert_M]

Ugh, that sucks. Why couldn't they just sell it that way before? DualDiscs are useless to me. I had to copy the previous disc, just to have one that would play.. anywhere.

 

[Phil A]

I totally concur. Perhaps I can buy it now.

 

[Dave Mack]

It is a great album though. I know one of the fiddle players, Sam bardfeld.

 

[Brian Collins]

I've implemented a "rule" for myself for this very reason. I simply do not buy any newly released cds until the latest "version" has been out for 1 year. Yes, I'm depriving myself in the short term, but I only have so much money to spend on music and I'm not going to keep spending money on the same cd over and over just for an extra song or two.

It won't cost six million dollars. But if the idea of repurchasing an album so soon gets your hackles up, the press release states that the new edition "will be available on a track-by-track basis from iTunes, allowing fans that have already purchased We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions DualDisc to download the additional tracks."
