NEW YORK – Wal-Mart will be the exclusive U.S. retailer for Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band’s “Greatest Hits,” which will arrive Jan. 13, two weeks before the group’s new Columbia studio album, “Working on a Dream.”

The 12-track set omits material from Springsteen’s albums without the E Street Band to round up classics such as “Born to Run,” “Thunder Road,” “Born in the U.S.A.” and “Darkness on the Edge of Town.”

Both “Greatest Hits” and “Working on a Dream” will be in stores when Springsteen and company perform at the Super Bowl XLIII halftime show on Feb. 1 in Tampa, Fla. Like last year’s “Magic,” the new album was produced by Brendan O’Brien.
