Our Favorite Bob Seger Songs – Part One

Robert Clark Seger was born in Lincoln Park, Michigan in 1945. Bob Seger as we know him has grown old gracefully while rocking his way through the 60s, 70s, and 80s and today. Bob’s double-sided live “Silver Bullet Live” is considered a musical benchmark by at least three different music genres. Bob Seger has sold more than 52 million albums in his career and has earned seven multi-platinum albums while winning two Grammys along the way.

Here’s part one of our favorite Seger Songs.

“2 + 2 Is On My Mind” and “Ramblin Gamblin Man” came up in a tie that represents Bob’s early work – genius, raw, clean and created without compromise. Bob’s subtle anti-war sentiment is all over his early work.

“Turn the Page” from the best live album ever released is the real life ‘behind the curtain’ look at what it’s like to be a rock star, revealing the price paid by few to be immortal.

Finally, “Old Time Rock N’ Roll” is perhaps the most cherished Seger song for a few simple reasons – it’s our generations’ “Jonny B Good,” it’s in the top 10 in most all time Jukebox songs ever played, plus it made the movie ‘Risky Business’ with Tom Cruise even better.
