Steven Van Zandt predicted Bruce Springsteen will release a new solo album

Steven Van Zandt of Bruce Springsteen predicted that a new solo LP with E Street Band will be released before regrouping.

While appearing on Philadelphia's WMGK radio station with host John DeBella, guitarists revealed that waiting for the release of Springsteen material "outstanding".

Van Zandt said, "You know Bruce - he's always got an album in his pocket, he's always writing something".

He added: "I don't know this for a fact, but I expect him to possibly put something out that's more of a solo nature, before we get back together. Only because he's just so prolific, still, after all these years. He's still just a terrific songwriter and writes all the time. I would expect him starting to have a backlog of songs, just in terms of the time that have passed."
