Wow, have I really been running this blog for three years and never made a post about Bob Seger and his Silver Bullet Band? Shame on me!
It's no lie. I love me some Bob Seger. I love his soulful vocals, edgy guitars, and poignant lyrics. When we lived in Germany last time, we took more than one trip to the Czech Republic and I listened to a Bob Seger CD for a good portion of the ride. Now, when I hear Stranger In Town, it reminds me of the Czech Republic and the great time we had there on my birthday in 2008.
I wish we had more legends like Bob Seger these days. Unfortunately, music has gotten to be more about what the masses will buy, rather than what's really good. People bought Bob Seger's music and loved it. I still love it.

"Still The Same"... great song from 1978! Always takes me back!
And "Her Strut", a hit from 1980... this one oozes lust!
I like a lot of Bob Seger's music, but some of it I could do without. Like, I probably don't need to hear "Turn The Page" again. It's not a bad song; I've just heard it too many times poorly done by wannabe karaoke singers. And when I say "wannabe", I mean people who can't sing at all. For some reason, these folks want to wail on Bob Seger's music. I guess it does lend itself to some wailing, though...
"Hollywood Nights"... the audience is loving this!
And Bob Seger on Ellen....
