The E Street Band has completed the distribution of footage from a concert in Philadelphia. The group released the fourth and final segment of the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour series on Wednesday. This release makes the entire 27-song performance available to the public.

The material was filmed on May 30 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. That date marked the final stop of the tour. The first part of the video series arrived on Sept. 9. The second segment followed on Sept. 23. A third collection dropped on Oct. 14. That installment covered the end of the main set and included songs such as My City of Ruins, Because the Night, Wrecking Ball, The Rising, The Ghost of Tom Joad, House of a Thousand Guitars, Badlands and Land of Hope and Dreams.

The newest segment contains the five-song encore. It begins with American Land. The band then plays Born to Run, Dancing In The Dark and Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out. The performance ends with a cover of Bob Dylan's Chimes of Freedom. Before the final number, Springsteen spoke to the crowd about hope, faith and unity during hard times.

The full project captures the complete show. It mixes well-known tracks with material that focuses on American democracy and freedom. Guitarist Tom Morello appeared as a special guest during the 20-show tour run. Chris Hilson and Thom Zimny supervised the concert film. Zimny and Sam Shapiro handled the editing.

The release honors the memory of writer and activist Dave Marsh. The series is now available for viewing online.
