Previously unreleased tracks from the 1977-’78 recording sessions include long-missed studio versions of such live standards as “Because the Night,” “Fire,” and Springsteen’s most celebrated outtake, “The Promise.” Finished in some cases with modern vocals and additional instrumentation, they form a “lost album” between Born to Run and Darkness.
