No, not five new episodes of From My Home To Yours, but a five-part series where each "episode will concentrate on an aspect of Springsteen’s career and feature Springsteen himself, talking with a guest or guests."

We're blessed, you know. We really are.
Can someone make the other interviews available? Please? The first one was such a boost to my morale!
I didn't even think Grohl would be enough of a fan to do the show based on what I've read over the years on his comment. Yeah, probably got overblown and I think he joked something about it, but you know he's a huge Paul McCartney fan among many other artists coz he says it, not the way it's been with Bruce. Eddie, no doubt about that guy's fandom.
This interview with Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder was really good. It's always nice to listen to peers discussing music and how deep a connection it has in their lives. Loved it!
"If you need some drum tracks, you know who to call!"
"I'll be calling then!"
It's 10pm, but they're still talking! Boss Time indeed.
Wait, are Eddie and Dave on together?
I don't think I've ever heard Springsteen reference Nirvana, so this Grohl interview should be interesting.
They wrap this interview up with Vedder mentioning how touched he was seeing Bruce and The E Street Band hug at the end of the documentary - "that's something we haven't been able to do lately and I miss that."
Vedder also thanks him for not waiting to put this album out until they were able to tour - and I'll second that!
Vedder and Bruce talking equipment, and specifically the mic and gear Bruce used for Nebraska (a "haphazard, happy incident").
We're now learning about "The Beach-box".
And did you know, they blew up The Chicken Man in Philly last night... ?
A discussing about achieving and maintaining mainstream success, Time and Newsweek have been mentioned, Bruce has reiterated how if his third album followed suit after the first two, he'd have been gone from his record label.
Teardrops on the city...
I'd love to know how many times I've heard that song, even though the answer might be frightening.
Immediately picking up where we left off with "Born to Run" starting the show, after "Thunder Road" closed out episode 1.
Bruce's voice sounds a bit more frail than it did on the Davis/Mr Landau episode, but it might just be a dodgy podcast mic he's talking into.
Let's go!
I thought I'd pull another From My Home to Yours and let these build up to be listened to in a few months, but I've just finished episode 1 and I'm ready for Volume 2 right now!
Seriously how old is Clive Davis now? He has got to be getting so up there, not to sound ageist ferchrissake, but he's always one I thought was 80 twenty years ago - his work record alone goes back so far.
I will listen to that interview this afternoon! I'm actually excited about this!
I am not sure I have enough hours in my week to take in all this stuff - something will have to give!
So after listening to the Lowe interview I actually forgot about the first of these five interviews hosted by Bruce. Instead of listening from 9pm - 10pm, I was watching John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness.
Anyway, I've listened to the first half hour of this and it's been good. Bruce sounds really good - those 13 episodes of From My Home to Yours have been solid experience - and he has an unsurprisingly good chemistry with Clive Davis.
Here is the video version, since I don't believe anybody has posted it here.
What a great interview. Loved every bit of it, I'm glad to see Bruce willing to dive a little deeper into the meaning of some songs and themes. Plus playing 'Nebraska' on the original guitar... That was amazing!
