Tributes & Special Releases

Tributes

Bruce Springsteen
Light Of Day

Light Of Day

Released: 2003
Label: Schoolhouse Records (Spain version only)

Those lucky folks in Spain get a 3 disc Light of Day album, the regular version of the album is only 2 cds, and does not include Cracker's version of 'Sinola Cowboys'.

This is the album version from Countrysides though.

Serious fans better get it though - Crazysloth does Candy's Room AND Lucky 7 does Valentine's Day. (Those bands are Johnny and Kenny's side projects.)
