Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's triumphant reunion tour was one of rock's great moments at the end of the 20th century, and a dream come true for Springsteen fans who'd spent a decade hoping for such a thing. Live in New York City, captured at the end of the tour (recorded over two nights at the final Madison Square Garden stand in the summer of 2000), is a stellar representation of the Reunion era, even if it doesn't capture a complete show from start to finish. This 3LP set features significant highlights of those shows, from the "My Love Will Not Let You Down" opener to the full-band "Youngstown," new songs "American Skin (41 Shots)" and "Land of Hope and Dreams," and "If I Should Fall Behind" as the embodiment of the band's rededication to close.
Finally back on vinyl for the first time since its original release, preserving the original double gatefold sleeve. This 3LP has been out of print and in-demand for years, making this the most highly awaited title of the 2020 reissue campaign. February 21, 2020, Columbia Records/Legacy Recordings.

LIVE IN NEW YORK CITY LETTERPRESS PRINT GIVEAWAY!
When the one-and-only Hatch Show Print shop in Nashville created the artwork for Live in New York City using old-school letterpress print methods, they also used the same blocks to create a limited batch of proofs and posters. A reproduction of one of these posters was included in the Greetings From E Street book… but we have an original. And we're giving it away.
In honor of the long-awaited reissue of Live in New York City on vinyl, we're holding a drawing to award this original Hatch Show Print letterpress poster to one lucky Backstreet Records customer. With typical Hatch Show playfulness, these posters varied widely — in terms of ink color as well as color and type of paper stock — making each one relatively distinct. Our particular specimen is pictured above, measuring 17.5"x23"with darker ink (blue and black blended into red) on medium-weight chipboard stock.
For each title you pre-order from the batch of February 21 LP releases (Live in New York City and/or any of the other albums coming that day: 18 Tracks, The Rising, Devils & Dust, and Live in Dublin), you'll be entered once into the drawing. Order all five, and get five entries.
In order to be entered into the drawing, pre-order(s) must be placed by February 20. Drawing will take place on release day, February 21, and the winner will be announced as well as notified by e-mail.
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY for this sweepstakes: entries will also be accepted by mail. Write your name, email, phone number, and shipping address on a 3x5 notecard and mail individually for arrival by February 20 to: BACKSTREETS, 1818 MLK Jr. Blvd. #300, Chapel Hill, NC 27514. A maximum of five entries per person will be allowed, and any personal information we collect will not be shared.
