Bryan Adams is back after a six-year studio hiatus.
The man responsible for megahits such as "Summer of '69" and "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" is prepping the cover-heavy Tracks Of My Years for a Sept. 30 release.
The tracklist features 10 covers, including "Lay Lady Lay" (Bob Dylan), "I Can't Stop Loving You" (Ray Charles) and "Any Time At All" (The Beatles).
"Making the selection of the songs for the album took a long time," noted Adams. "We recorded all kinds of songs until the songs sort of presented themselves, or sounded different enough from the originals. We did about three months of recording, spread out over the course of two years."
Here's the official tracklist:
01. Any Time At All
02. She Knows Me
03. I Can't Stop Loving You
04. Kiss And Say Goodbye
05. Lay Lady Lay
06. Rock And Roll Music
07. Down On The Corner
08. Never My Love
09. Sunny
10. The Tracks Of My Tears
11. God Only Knows
12. You've Been A Friend To Me (Deluxe version)
13. Many Rivers To Cross (Deluxe version)
14. C'mon Everybody (Deluxe version)
15. Help Me Make It Through The Night (Deluxe version)
16. You Shook Me (Deluxe version)
Tracks Of My Years is Adams' first studio album since 2008's Eleven, which hit No. 80 on the U.S. charts, but soared to No. 1 in Canada, his home country.
He released the live acoustic album Bare Bones in 2010, which pre-empted an international tour.
He'll be hitting the road for several overseas dates beginning Sept. 8.
