In the interview, Springsteen breaks down his new album, Magic, and discusses many of the songs with Marsh, the author of four books on Bruce Springsteen.

Marsh currently hosts a weekly show, Kick Out The Jams With Dave Marsh, on SIRIUS Stars channel 102 and contributes to E Street Radio.

The channel's launch coincides with the start of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's 2007 concert tour and the release of Magic, Bruce Springsteen's highly-anticipated first album recorded with the E Street Band since 2002's multi-platinum and Grammy(R) award-winning The Rising.

Listeners to E Street Radio will hear daily features on the new album's music with track-by-track discussions with Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band members. The channel will also feature archival concert recordings of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band dating from 1973, and behind-the-scenes insights from band insiders. Springsteen fans, both celebrity and otherwise, will also be able guest DJ on the channel, playing their favorite Springsteen music for fans across America.
