A Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band concert film and companion album, bringing together their iconic 1979 'No Nukes' performances, is to be released in November.
The Legendary 1979 No Nukes Concerts will be available for digital download on Tuesday, 16 November. Physical formats, including on two CD with DVD, two CD with Blu-Ray and two LP formats, will be released on Friday, 19 November. Digital rental will be available from Tuesday, 23 November.
When the film was first announced earlier this year, Sony Music Entertainment said: "A composite of two performances shot during the 1979 MUSE [Musicians United for Safe Energy] benefit concerts, popularly known as the 'No Nukes' concerts, the film will give audiences around the world the chance to witness performances that marked the rise of the future Rock and Roll Hall of Famers.
"Very little filmed footage of Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band is available from this era, so The Legendary 1979 No Nukes Concerts is a rare opportunity to see the band - just six years into their story - give an explosive performance that became an instant classic.
"The Legendary 1979 No Nukes Concerts features remixed and remastered audio and was edited from the original 16mm film by longtime Springsteen collaborator Thom Zimny."
The pair also worked together on Springsteen's 2019 performance film Western Stars.
"A few years ago, I started re-examining the filmed archives for Bruce and the Band's appearances at the 'No Nukes' concerts of 1979," said Zimny.
"I quickly realised that these were the best performances and best filming from the Band's legendary Seventies, and dedicated myself to bringing out the full potential of the footage.
"Having worked as Bruce's principal director and editor for the last 20 years, I can say without reservation that this newly re-edited, remixed and restored 90-minute film is the gold standard for Bruce and the Band live during one of their greatest creative periods."
