But a post on Springsteen’s website confirms the release date as November 25.

The song was originally recorded by Los Angeles band The Havalinas; Springsteen included a version of it on the 1996 Blood Brothers EP. More recently, Springsteen had been playing the song with the E Street Band during their shows in Australia in March this year.

Meanwhile, Billboard have reported that a new Springsteen studio album might arrive as early as the New Year. The Billboard story claims “Sources tell Billboard that a larger release is on its way, and that a new Springsteen studio album could be out as early as January — a quick follow-up to 2012’s chart-topping Wrecking Ball.”
