It is a tribute to the SoldaDera soldiers of the Mexican Revolution, the Springsteen together with a group of Mariachi musicians (Luis Villalobos, Alberto Villalobos, Angel Ramos, Humberto Manuel Flores Gutierrez, David Glukh, Jorge Espinosa, Miguel Ponce) created on several tracks from “Inyo” can be heard.
“”Inyo Is an album that I wrote in California while long car trips along the California Aquäuk, through the Inyo County on the way to the Yosemite or Death Valley, “says Springsteen in a press release.” I really enjoyed this kind of writing. [Auf der „The Ghost Of Tom Joad“-Tour] I went to my hotel room in the evening. And continued in this style because I thought I would The Ghost of Tom Joad Continue with a similar album. But I didn’t do that. So created Inyo. It’s one of my favorite albums. “

Bruce Springsteen on a European tour with a political statement
Bruce Springsteen is currently on European tour with the E Street Band. They are politically charged concerts in which Springsteen speaks openly about the political situation in his homeland.
“In my homeland, the America that I love about and which has been a beacon of hope and freedom for 250 years, there is currently a corrupt, incompetent and treacherous government in power,” said Springsteen in front of the audience on the first evening. “Tonight we ask everyone who believes in democracy and the best of our American experience to raise their voice against authoritarianism with us. And to let the freedom sound.”
Truth social tirade against the rock star
As was to be expected, this triggered a number of angry contributions from President Trump to Truth Social. “Springsteen is ‘stupid like a stone’,” wrote Trump. “He didn’t see what was going on. Or did he see it (which would be worse!)? This dried ‘plum’ rocker (his skin is completely crushed!) Should hold his flap until it is back in the country, that’s simply ‘standard’. Then we will all see how it goes on for him!”
Springsteen reacted to the hidden threat by publishing his speech in full length on the six title of extensive digital EP “Land of Hope and Dreams”.
