Bruce Springsteen has announced the release of a soul covers album, Only the Strong Survive, which will be out on November 11 via Columbia. Springsteen has also shared a video for a cover of Frank Wilson’s 1965 song “Do I Love You (Indeed I Do).” View the Thom Zimny-directed video below, along with the album’s tracklist and cover art.

In a press release, Springsteen states: “I wanted to make an album where I just sang. And what better music to work with than the great American songbook of the Sixties and Seventies? I’ve taken my inspiration from Levi Stubbs, David Ruffin, Jimmy Ruffin, the Iceman Jerry Butler, Diana Ross, Dobie Gray, and Scott Walker, among many others. I’ve tried to do justice to them all—and to the fabulous writers of this glorious music. My goal is for the modern audience to experience its beauty and joy, just as I have since I first heard it. I hope you love listening to it as much as I loved making it.”
