The Ties That Bind: The River Collection
The Ties That Bind: The River Collection is a comprehensive look at The River era. The set contains 52 tracks on four CDs with a wealth of unreleased material, and four hours of never-before-seen video on three DVDs. It is comprised of the original The River double album; the first official release of The River: Single Album; a CD of 1979/80 studio outtakes; a two-DVD film of never-released, newly edited multi-camera footage from Springsteen’s famed 1980 show in Tempe, AZ, long rumoured but never-before-seen; rare tour rehearsal footage; a brand new documentary 'The Ties That Bind' about The River; and a coffee table book of 200 rare or previously unseen photos and memorabilia with a new essay by Mikal Gilmore.
