Hail to the Boss


Billboard Magazine is among the sources reporting that Bruce Springsteen will have a new record ready to go for President-Elect Obama's inauguration event. Unclear whether The Boss would actually perform in some capacity in connection with the festivities. Apparently a new song, titled "Workin' on a Dream" will be part of the NBC Sunday Night Football halftime show on Nov. 16.

The Bard of Asbury Park has had an remarkably productive couple of years, with his last album coming out in October 2007 and now another in January 2009. When not in the studio he has campaigned for Obama/Biden including at a rally in Cleveland at which the pic above was taken. Is that not the pic of the year? Springsteen wrote a long time ago "I'm not a boy / no I'm a man / and I believe in the promised land."

Indeed.
