Bruce Springsteen Massive New Album Easily Rises Into The Top 10
Bruce Springsteen's Tracks II: The Lost Albums debuts at No. 9 on the iTunes Top Albums chart, ... More featuring seven unreleased albums recorded throughout decades. ALBANY, NEW YORK - APRIL 15: Bruce Springsteen performs with The E Street Band at MVP Arena on April 15, 2024 in Albany, New York. (Photo by) On Friday (June 27), Bruce Springsteen released what may be his largest project ever. The rock superstar delivered Tracks II: The Lost Albums, a box set featuring seven complete albums that the singer-songwriter wrote and recorded throughout the decades but never shared with the public. Springsteen has been teasing the massive project for months with multiple song drops, many of which have become successes on iTunes. As the complete compilation arrives, it has already become a bestseller, and it may enjoy a lofty opening on the Billboard charts in a few days. Bruce Springsteen's New Top 10 Album Tracks II easily breaks into the top 10 on the iTunes Top Albums chart in the U.S., which lists the bestselling full-lengths and EPs on what is usually regarded as one of the most important sales platforms in the country. The box set currently appears at No. 9 as of the time of publishing, but it could continue to climb in the coming hours and days. Bruce Springsteen Follows Lorde Tracks II earns one of a trio of new arrivals inside the iTunes Top Albums chart's top 10. Virgin, the latest full-length by New Zealand superstar Lorde, beats Springsteen by two spaces as it settles at No. 7. Girl group Katseye launches its Beautiful Chaos EP at No. 10. Bruce Springsteen's Multiple New Bestselling Tunes Springsteen also fills half a dozen spots on the iTunes Top Songs ranking, although none of his tunes have become massive bestsellers this Friday. 'Blind Spot,' 'Sunday Love,' 'Faithless,' 'Sripo Man,' 'Rain in the River,' and 'Adelita' all appear between Nos. 150 and 184. The focus of Tracks II is not necessarily to produce a huge hit but rather for Springsteen to share the wealth of music he has created throughout the years with a fan base that is constantly ravenous for new material.

Adam Sandler's "You're My Best Friend" tour coming to NYC
Adam Sandler is heading back to New York City. The actor and comedian is bringing his 2025 tour to Madison Square Garden on Sept. 15. It'll be a homecoming, of sorts, for Sandler, who was born in Brooklyn. His family then moved to Manchester, N.H. when he was a child, where he was raised. Sandler later returned to Big Apple and skyrocketed to fame on "Saturday Night Live." His 2025 "You're My Best Friend" tour includes four shows in the Empire State. After his stop at the world's most famous arena, he'll head upstate, making stops in Albany on Sept. 16, Syracuse on Sept. 17 and Buffalo on Sept. 21. New Yorkers may also be interested in some other tour stops that are relatively close by. Sandler will bring his tour to Philadelphia on Sept. 19, as well as to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. on Sept. 26. Tickets for his 30-city tour go on sale Friday via Ticketmaster. Sandler made a recent stop in the Tri-State Area for an entirely different reason. Back in August, he held an open casting call in New Jersey for "Happy Gilmore 2," which is set for release on Netflix in July.

Argentine Tango waltzes to Newmarket success
Yet to finish outside the first two in her career to date, she headed south with some fine form to her name, including finishing second to Albany Stakes winner Venetian Sun on her penultimate start before winning Beverley's Hilary Needler Trophy later the same week. Sent off at 9-1 in the hands of David Allen, she put her experience to great use to battle her way to a narrow head victory over Ed Walker's Midnight Tango, with Richard Hughes' 6-4 favourite Bella Lyra a neck further back in third. Easterby said: 'She's just super tough and super game and just like her sire Mattmu, she's hard as nails. 'She'll go on any ground, soft or firm it wouldn't matter and she got the six furlongs well. 'If you look her form up she tried to give the Albany winner 6lb at Carlisle which was a hell of a run. She ran at Carlisle on the Monday and went to Beverley and won on Saturday, that's the type of horse she is. 'You can't believe how tough and hard she is and Mattmu was just the same, she has a massive heart and you can't give her a day off as she'll just buck them off, racing is like nothing for her.' With Listed success secured and having proven her liking for six furlongs on her first try at the distance, Easterby will now consult with the owners to plot a route forward with their hardy youngster, who now has three wins from five starts. 'We were just going down there today as we had no other options really,' continued Easterby. 'We had planned to skip Ascot and other than going to another fillies race where she could pick up a bonus but have a massive penalty, this was the obvious race and it was a very competitive field. 'We're open to ideas and will just decide as we go along, but you can't give her days off as she's so tough and hardy. 'We'll figure out a route and she's won a Listed race now which is great for a filly like her and great for the sire. She's bred by a top stud in Bearstone and they always come out of there tough, so we'll just keep going and see what there is and where we end up.'
