), and sees the participation of the musicians themselves. He and his collaborators recorded live in the studio.
“Somewhere North of Nashville”
as Stereogum reports, includes two songs originally planned for that album,

And
“Janey Don’t You Lose Heart”
.

“What happened is that I wrote all these country songs at the same time when I wrote ‘The Ghost of Tom Joad’. Those sessions overlap completely. I sang ‘Repo Man’ in the afternoon and ‘The line’ at night. So the country disc was made simultaneously with ‘The Ghost of Tom Joad'” – said Springsteen – “Streets of Philadelphia ‘ My conscious writing from the point of view of society and current affairs.
