Bob Seger has racked up a lot of worthy tracks over the years, but it took until 1994 for a greatest hits package to appear. Voilà. The bad news: We're missing an awful lot of songs here. Night Moves is Seger's crit-pick album, and a great place to start if you don't have any Seger at all. Next in the rankings is Stranger in Town. Otherwise, his highs are pretty scattered, which would make any best-of package a worthy investment. But if you want to get comprehensive, "Rock & Roll Never Forgets," "Fire Down Below," "Horizontal Bop," "Her Strut," "Betty Lou's Getting Out Tonight," and "Katmandu" aren't on this CD--and you'll have to go to the original albums to secure them. --Gavin McNett

5 out of 5 stars Just the tip of the iceburg.......2007-08-02

Yes it's missing a ton of songs BUT still worth every penny.This cd has been playing in my truck since December (before I saw Seger live in January). The man's a musical genius-way past due for a supercollection album!

5 out of 5 stars Seger and passion for the big two wheeler.......2007-08-01

A lady friend is considering the purchase of a motorcycle. Aside from the skill and judgement, motorcycle ownership is about passion.

So I played Bob Seger's "Roll Me Away" for her. Now if you don't get a little choked up when Bob sings "someday, we'll get it right", you better stick with the Toyota Hybrid.

Pamela is buying the black Ducati.

5 out of 5 stars Bob Seager - Greatest Hits.......2007-07-24

The CD is fantastic bringing back memories. He has a memorable voice that you cannot help moving to the music with him.

3 out of 5 stars it must have been better.......2007-07-10

este cd trae buenos temas; pero a un grandes exitos no se le puede omitir eso... exitos. aqui falta "shame on the moon" y "shakedown", basicos en la discografia de este artista.

5 out of 5 stars REally is greatest.......2007-07-08

My husband, who thought he'd never heard of Bog Seger, love the CD. They
are, of course, some of his favorite songs. He just didn't know the
artist's name.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2007-06-27

Great CD Not the typical Grt. Hits Cd with a couple of good songs and the rest just filler. A good choice

5 out of 5 stars Bob Seger Rocks.......2007-05-13

This CD is excellent. It has many great songs that were on movie
sound tracks, and were not available on Bob Seger CDs.

5 out of 5 stars Comfort music........2007-04-14

Some of these songs are old friends and the others are becoming my new friends.

4 out of 5 stars Soundtrack Songs Make This A Must.......2007-03-11

I was glad to see "Understanding" and "Shakedown" included. Often the songs written for movies get overlooked. Both are terrific songs. Most of the other songs are available on other released albums. Note: I happened upon "Greatest Hits, Vol. 2" when I discovered Bob Seger is not available via iTunes.

Album Description

Founded in the late '60s in Surrey, England, Genesis rose out of the ashes of earlier bands formed by schoolmates Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Michael Rutherford, and Anthony Phillips (who departed after 1969's Trespass, the album providing the final track on this stellar retrospective). Guitarist Steve Hackett soon signed on, as did drummer/vocalist Phil Collins, who'd later emerge (as would Gabriel) as a solo superstar. Following Gabriel's 1975 departure, Genesis grew from a progressive art-rock outfit into one of the biggest arena rock acts ever, with a long string of platinum-sellers and chart smashes. On this, their most comprehensive career-spanning collection to date, Genesis' remarkable evolution is revealed.

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars A good collection for the begginers like me!!!!!!.......2007-07-04

I never care about Genesis, so I decided to try to listen to them so I just bought this collection. I like it!. My favourite cd was the second one! songs like Abacab, Turn it on again, makes me wants to hear this cd over and over

4 out of 5 stars Great mix for the price!.......2007-06-17

For the price, this collection can't be beat. All the classics, all the hits, from all the different periods of Genesis.

A really good overview of their work.

4 out of 5 stars Good introduction ahead of Genesis' 2007 US tour.......2007-06-07

Economic value: 5 Stars; Compilation: 4 Stars; Packaging: 3 Stars

Now that Genesis has decided to do the (take your pick: dreaded/hoped for) reunion tour this year, starting in Europe shortly, coming to the US later this year, it's time to revisit the only compilation that spans the entire Genesis studio catalogue.

"Genesis Platinum Edition" (3 CDs; 40 tracks; 235 min.) tracks the band's history in reverse chronological order, with one exception: the title track of 1997's "Calling All Stations", which is stuck at the end of CD1 and sounds totally out of place--for many reasons. But for that song, this covers Genesis 1971-1991, and it's amazing what these guys put out in 20 years, and how the band evolved. This compilation is a decent attempt to cover it all. CD1 (16 tracks, 78 min.) covers the band's most successfull years, and many of these tracks are also found on the "Turn It On Again - The Hits" compilation. Am I the only one to think that the songs from 1986's "Invisible Touch" album have aged very poorly? It makes me cringe to listen to them. (Note: "Tonight Tonight Tonight" comes in an edited, short version here.) CD2 (15 tracks, 77 min.) tracks the intermediary years and I was surprised how good these songs resonate still. Check out for example "Abacab" (in the full album version, thankfully), and "In That Quiet Earth/Afterglow", but shamefully "One for the Vine" is missing, one of the band's best tracks ever (and perhaps the best song Tony Banks ever penned). CD3 (9 tracks, 80 min.) covers the Peter Gabriel years (1971-1975), and while I did not mind (and at times greatly enjoyed) Genesis' evolution to a mainstream successful band, this era is still the most compelling for me. Check out "The Cinema Show" and "Supper's Ready" (both here in full length) if you're not familiar with them, you'll be blown away, I promise you.

There is no arguing with the economic value of this compilation: 4 hours of music for $20, you can't beat that. The packaging is a different story: skimpy liner notes, and the booklet is misprinted with pages out of order... I have seen Genesis in concert only once, in Brussels on the 1977 tour for "Wind & Wuthering" and I remember it as if it was yesterday. Unforgettable. While I know that this year's reunion tour is probably a money-grabbing thing, I nevertheless do plan on seeing them when they come to Columbus in September, for nostalgic reasons if nothing else.

5 out of 5 stars What the Turn it On Again collection should`ve been.............2007-05-14

This is, without a shadow of a doubt THE best collection of my favorite band of all time. Disc 1 is what the TIOA CD shoulda been. Not just pure hit machine pop but some great prog like Home by Sea & Mama COMPLETLEY UNEDITED. Also has a hard to find piece called Paperlate remixed.-5 stars. Disc 2 has classics like ABACAB & Turn it on Again totally remixed. it ain`t Genesis at its best but its good.-4.5 stars. Disc 3 is a masterpiece, prog rock greatness with Suppers Ready! Nuff said.-6 stars. steller.

3 out of 5 stars Great musicianship, but can you - honestly - take Phil Collins seriously?.......2007-05-11

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Peter Gabrial, Steve Hackett (later of "GTR," a band Creem Magazine referred to as "SHT"), Tony Banks, Chester Thompson, Mike Rutherford (he of "The Living Years" fam ), and...and...and...Phil Collins. EXCELLENT drummer! But WHY "push the envelope," seeing how annoying he can be? Oh well, "buy the ticket, take the ride," I guess...

The labels that are now gathered under the Universal Classics umbrella have a pretty impressive scorecard in the area of classical compilations. We've seen The Greatest Opera Show on Earth, The Yellow Guide: Classical Music, Best of the Millennium, and now there's The No. 1 Opera Album. But that's no surprise, since Universal has some of the finest interpreters in its catalogue to draw from. This two-CD set (at the price of one), for example, brings together the likes of Cecilia Bartoli, Renée Fleming, Luciano Pavarotti, Kiri Te Kanawa, Sir Georg Solti, Herbert von Karajan, and many more. Yet the other key to a successful compilation is canny anthologizing, and here again, you have a nice selection to give you a smattering of opera's heavyweights from the Italian, German, and French repertory (there's even a step outside the standard framework with an aria from Dvorák's lovely Rusalka). Ranging from 1959 to 1997, the choices from back catalogue will doubtless be the entry ticket for many into this grandest of the arts. --Sarah Chin

5 out of 5 stars The beautiful gift of opera..........2007-07-17

This 2-CD set is absolutely wonderful! You can close your eyes and feel like you're actually at the opera, listening to those beautiful voices bringing tears to your eyes. Nessun Dorma still stirs up emotions in me, no matter how many times I hear it. Great examples of opera to give someone wanting to get interested in this style of music.

4 out of 5 stars Pretty darn good.......2007-07-04

This CD set has a lot of familiar music on it, so if you're a newbie, you might want to try starting with this. There are some great pieces on the first CD. I usually don't even make it to the second.

2 out of 5 stars The Opera #1 Opera Album.......2007-06-07

The music is wonderful. The production is terrible!! The sound fades in and out and is very scratchy in some places.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent assortment.......2007-05-12

I'm not a big opera fan but I wanted to expose an assorted selection for my kids. This was perfect since it included several recognizable selections.

5 out of 5 stars Great Selections.......2007-03-31

This Cd, has the very best of Opera
covering mainly from the classcal
to the to the romantic periods, a most
memorable selection here is Leo Nucci
in a lagendary performance of Rossini's
"Largo al Factotum" from "Il Barbiere di Seviglia"
also Andrea Bocelli in his performance of Leoncavallo's
memorable "Matinatta" here in an orchestrated version.
Indeed some of opera's most loved arias are in this recording
various conductors, orchestras, and soloists. All in their
very best. Indeed a five-star recording...

It is a real pleasure to be able to listen to this classic collection of live songs. The sound quality is excellent. It brings back great memories.

Lively live performance by Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. How can you beat "Katmandu"?

5 out of 5 stars LIVE BULLET ! (Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band show the world how to rock n' roll).......2007-06-19

Recorded in Detroit's Cobo Hall, !977's Live Bullet from Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band is one of the greatest live albums ever recorded. Great rock classics, funky soul music, and good old rock n' roll make up the entire album. Seger, a Dearborn, Michigan native, is right at home, and that just adds to the warmth and enthusiasm on Live Bullet. Tina Turner's Nutbush City Limits starts things off with a funky rock beat. The classic Travelin' Man/Beautiful Loser medley is next (this is the version that's played by radio stations). It rocks, and also has emotional significance for millions of people. They tear through Van Morrison's I've Been Working like they mean it. The definitive version of Turn The Page is here, the one you've heard on the radio all these years. Of course this is a great rock classic, one of the greatest rock songs ever. The rousing version of Ramblin' Gamblin' Man will certainly get your body moving, and it's never sounded better than it does here. The Silver Bullet Band, complete with horns, really shines on Heavy Music, and you could almost swear it was Wilson Pickett singing on parts of the song. And that's quite a complement! This live version of Katmandu rocks 10 times more than the studio version does and sounds 10 times better. In fact, all of the songs on this album do. Lookin' Back, Get Out Of Denver, and Let It Rock wrap things up in good rocking fashion, with great vocal performances from Seger, and more excellant hard rocking from the band (especially guitar). Live Bullet is a great album, full of hard driving blue collar rock n' roll, and famous rock classics from America's favorite old time rock n' rollers, Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best live albums ever made - EVER.......2007-05-15

If you can't appreciate live Bob Seger, we'll just assume you don't really love good live rock 'n roll. In concert, the man knows how to rock the house like few others. "Nutbush City Limits", "Let It Rock", "Ramblin Gamblin Man", "Get Out of Denver", "Turn The Page" and "Katmandu" ... what a performer, unbelievable cd. Always gets me going and tunes I never get tired of. Long live Bob!

After more than 10 years working the Midwest club circuit, Detroit's Bob Seger hit mainstream American paydirt with this distillation of working-class values and juke-joint rock & roll. His regional success had been brewing throughout the mid-'70s, but after Bruce Springsteen connected with Born to Run (copping Seger's traditional rock values, to say nothing of his husky tone), it was only a matter of time before Seger found his ticket. Seger scores here with the nostalgic title track, the somber ballad "Mainstreet," the over-tanked rocker "Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgets," and the raunch standard "The Fire Down Below." --Rob O'Connor

5 out of 5 stars Gotta have it.......2007-07-31

Wow, what a great album! What is special about this collection is that it is more about "the Silver Bullet Band" than it is Bob Seger. And while I love Seger, his band never got the credit it deserved. While everyone loves "night moves" (and rightfully so), you really get an appreciation for the Band on songs like "sunspot baby" where the band is wailing and Seger is telling another great story! Every song has something special to offer. While "come to poppa" might not be that popular on the charts, if you focus on the percussions (drummer), you'll want to play it over and over again. Every song is a bit different, some are soft flowing ballads, like you hear on "mainstreet" and "ship of fools", while others like "sunspot baby" and "sunburst" feature the fun upbeat style of the Silver Bullet Band. If you enjoy Seger and his folk-rock style you will absolutely love this album. KC.

5 out of 5 stars One of Bob Seger's finest albums digitally remastered for awesome sound quality!!! A great spin!!!.......2007-03-29

Night Moves by Bob Seger is an awesome album!!! Lots of great songs here such as the classic title track,Rock & Roll Never Forgets,Come To Poppa,Mainstreet,Sunspot Baby and more!!! One of the great classic rock albums of the 70's,digitally remastered for awesome sound quality!!! A great spin!!! Two thumbs up!!! Five stars!!! A+

4 out of 5 stars Sounds from the past.......2007-01-03

Brings back those moments from high school and all the fun we were having. A great addition to my collection.

5 out of 5 stars An Overlooked Gem.......2007-01-02

I remember first listening to FM album oriented rock n roll when the Night Moves lp was released. My first impression as a teenager was gosh that Night Moves song is so darn slow with overly repetitive chords. Mainstreet left me with a somewhat better impression. However rockers like The Fire Down Below, Come To Poppa, and Rock N Roll Never Forgets always had a hold on me. Somehow though the overplayed title track kept me from digging further into this LP.

Years passed and I began to appreciate Live Bullet- both the ballads and the rockers. I realized that Bob Seger certainly put out some great tunes. Some of his more modern stuff was a little hit and miss but overall the man was a talented songwriter as his words are really touching.

Since I absolutely love the cool edgy blues oriented Fire Down Below, I had to give this Night Moves CD another listen this time with more mature ears. I realized that these nine songs are all very good to excellent. Yes, I even like the slow moving Night Moves as the subject matter I can certainly relate to and carries a certain mysterious air. Most notably, the blend from fast to slow and different dynamics make the Night Moves CD very special.

I guess the lesson learned here is to always keep an open mind and one's appreciation for music is always evolving.

4 out of 5 stars Remastered?.......2006-05-23

This is a great album. The only complaint I have is the remastering. About 2/3 through the song "Night Moves" there is a worbling in and out that sticks out like a sore thumb. It made me cringe. It sounded like a worn out cassette tape. I could've made a CD from an LP that would have sounded better than that mess. To me, it ruined the song. I'll have to listen from the greatest hits I suppose.

A working-class hero is something to be. Just ask Michigan native Bob Seger, whose R&B-based rock and poetically uncomplicated lyrics made him a less cerebral alternative to Bruce Springsteen. For those who want the studio album that comes closest to a greatest-hits package, you can hardly do better than this 1978 LP. The follow-up to the previous year's smash, Night Moves, Stranger scored Seger a triple-platinum home run with can't-shake-'em-from-your-head hits like "Hollywood Nights," "Still the Same," "Till It Shines," and "We've Got Tonight." And even if the jukebox staple "Old Time Rock & Roll" has grown stale with time, Seger and company balance it out with the epic melancholy of the album's closer, "Famous Final Scene." Backed by incessant touring, Stranger in Town erased any lingering doubts about Seger's talent for crafting blue-collar rock anthems, cementing a reputation and a sound that's continued to hold up for decades. --Bill Forman

5 out of 5 stars Seeker in Town...............2007-02-04

Yes people. I went out yesterday to see if I could see my shadow. All the townspeople clapped because I saw it! You know what this means, don't you? At least 6 MORE WEEKS of Metamorpho reviews! And, hopefully many more when the weather gets balmy (although some out there think I'm balmy enough already. Go figure). In any event- I am now imprisoned in my environment due to 2 feet of snow outside. So, I have grabbed a hot toddy and am now ready to reflect on this fine selection. Oh, before I forget, I resolved the imitation issue with my apprentice T. He had dated video tape to prove his whereabouts. He, however, directed your Metamorpho to a prankster named Jack. I will let you know how this turns out.
In an effort to rock on and prove to Guido a few things, I have picked Bob Seger's excellent "Stranger In Town" to review. What can one say about this gifted rock artist? I have always seen Seger as a white rock-soul artist (listen to that gritty soulful vocal approach!), but I do not like labels and, thus, you colour in your own impressions.
Some fine rock and ballads inhabit this great album. And he has hit upon at least one all-time classic with the airy, lovely "We've Got Tonight". Just a generous gem for sure.
The key motif for alot of Seger's songs seems to be his relationships with women. How their meeting is intense, how they come together like a blaze and, unfortunately, how they both move on. He moves along the slippery slope of human connections. However, wisely, sprinkles the music with a balance of rave-ups, excitement, melancholy, regrets and, finally, rambling forward with his quest. The rockers rock, the easier rock is smooth and glossy, and the ballads are all heartfelt. Quite nice.
We begin with that train-gallop of a beat with "Hollywood Nights". Yes. She had all the right skills but, as ill-fate would strike him (often) he eventually woke up alone. As a side note- in all of Seger's songs he somehow always seems to create an infectious "groove". And having a talented creative band doesn't hurt either. Listen to "Still the Same" and you'll see what I mean. A girl that gambles - and Bob knows a relationship with her would be a gamble that he would lose. Inclusion here of those backup female voices. The song oozes like sweet syrup.
"Old Time Rock & Roll" fits the Seger sound like a glove. Not much else to say here except if you haven't heard it a copy of it will be sent out IMMEDIATELY to your igloo in the artic. "Till It Shines" is a nice groove ballad about rising up from the imposed chains we put on ourselves. Nice word imagery here. "Feel Like a Number" is a nice rocker that is Bob's ode not to be just another face in the crowd. "Ain't Got No Money" (sounds strangely like "The Fire Down Below". No?) is the classic Seger strut song. No one is better at this than him.
I have already mentioned "We've Got Tonight", which I think is definitely the best ballad he's ever written. Then people, we get to one of Metamorpho's favorites "Brave Stranger". Sort of reminiscent of "Night Moves" subject matter. Listen to the piano, listen to the groove, listen to how the whole thing moves. We then have that stop and that soulful middle with the sax and those background singers. White soul extraordinaire. A joy, and then it moves upward, insistently, back into the main groove again. A wonderful tune. One that gets Metamopho's old blood cells moving once again
Then the ending, "The Famous Final Scene" which, ironically is last and one that, sadly, conveys all the ingredients included in a breakup. Listen to the crying sax- listen to Seger's mournful, soft, yearning vocals. So fine. So very fine.
In conclusion, this album has to be considered as one of his finest offerings - but, believe Metamorpho - there are many more. It is nice to see Mr. Seger out there recording again after such a long abscence. I asked my guides to "will" this to happen. After all, we missed that quality and had to have it in the 21st century. For all who like good rock- this is a must.
Well- that's it. Now I can only hope that some kid comes around that will shovel me out of this snowy mess. Do you think he'll accept spiritual currency? It's like a savings bond. Takes time to mature.
Anyway my people. Thanks for reading and hopes that you won't be hit by snowballs....

3 out of 5 stars might wanna look for another live album.......2007-07-10

Nine Tonight is a very uninteresting live album. It doesn't feel like Bob Seger went out of his way to make any of the songs exciting. It's more like a feeling of Bob and the rest of the band going through the motions, or a feeling of "It's time to release a live album, and this is what we're giving you". I don't believe the band was really feeling the excitement or the energy that made much of these songs sound so good in the studio. If you happen to own these songs on their regular studio albums, you'd be better off avoiding this album altogether and just sticking with what you have. Or better yet, look into some late 60's Bob Seger, which was the absolute high point of his career.

5 out of 5 stars This is a great live album!.......2007-05-14

I bought this on LP when it first came out and it immediately became my favorite live album. So many live albums lose the balance between the music and the audience, where the music overpowers the crowd to the point where you lose the thrill of the event being "live." "Nine Tonight" carries the perfect balance here, as well as providing a nice collection of great rock songs, like "Against The Wind," "Night Moves," and "Rock And Roll Never Forgets." My only complaint about this CD is the need to shorten the final song, "Let It Rock," to fit it onto one CD. That song highlighted Seger's rapport with the audience, and the abridged version is not as good as the original. Other than that, I highly recommend this CD to all Seger, and rock and roll, fans!

4 out of 5 stars Bob Seger is best heard "live"........2007-05-07

This CD captures the experience of Bob Seger live. A must have for Seger fans.

5 out of 5 stars Bob Seger's second live album is just as killer as his first.......2007-01-12

Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band released its second live album Nine Tonight in September of 1981.
Nine Tonight was Seger's thirteenth album in total. This live album is just as good, if not better than 1976's Live Bullet.
Half of Nine Tonight, like Live Bullet, was recorded at Cobo Hall in Detroit, MI (tracks 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14) in June of 1980 and the other eight tracks (tracks 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 15 and 16) were recorded at the Boston Garden in my native Boston, MA in October, 1980.
Seger is joined by longtime Silver Bullet members bass player Chris Campbell and sax player Alto Reed (both of whom are still in the band today) and guitarist Drew Abbott (whom left during The Distance sessions). There were some changes to The Silver Bullet Band lineup since Live Bullet. First, drummer Charlie Allen Martin was paralyzed in a car accident in 1977 and was replaced by David Teegarden (whom would leave the band after Nine Tonight's release). Second, keyboard player Robyn Robbins was replaced in 1980 by ex-Grand Funk Railroad keyboard player Craig Frost (whom made his debut on Nine Tonight and is still in The Silver Bullet Band today).
The only two exclusive tracks on Nine Tonight is the opening title cut which was from the movie "Urban Cowboy" released in 1980. The track was intended for Against the Wind but the producer for the "Urban Cowboy" soundtrack album (Eagles manager Irving Azoff) had the song ready for inclusion on the album(UC). Then we segue into the album's biggest hit Tryin' To Live My Life Without You which is a great song.
Nine Tonight also features blistering live versions of tracks from Seger's three million sellers 1976's Night Moves (represented by Mainstreet, The Fire Down Below, the title cut to Night Moves and Rock and Roll Never Forgets), 1978's Stranger in Town (represented by Hollywood Nights, Old Time Rock and Roll, Feel Like a Number and We've Got Tonight) and 1980's Against the Wind (represented by You'll Accomp'ny Me, the album's title cut, Her Strut, Fire Lake and Betty Lou's Gettin' Out Tonight).
We end the album, like Live Bullet, with Let it Rock. This version is more electrifying than on the Live Bullet version clocking in at 10 plus minutes. The CD however features an edited version because otherwise, it would have been believed back in 1989, that the track would exceed the maximum playing time on a CD or it would have become a 2 CD set (CDs can fit up to 80 minutes of music). The LP label gave Let it Rock's playing time as 8 minutes and 26 seconds but it is actually 10 minutes and 35 seconds. The CD version is only a little over 6 minutes and uses the ending of The Fire Down Below to end the track instead of the big finale.
Nine Tonight was released to massive sales as the album peaked at #3 on the Billboard album charts and sold millions upon release. The album deserves to be re-released in its full glory and can fit on one CD no problem or worse comes to worse, re-release it on two.
Highly recommended!

The only song I know on this album is Against the Wind, which is of course, a great song. The only thing I really wanted to rate is the cover. It's the most beautiful album cover there is, in my opinion.

5 out of 5 stars Against the Wind cd Bob Seger .......2007-01-05

i am so grateful to add this to my music collection it has been one of my favorite Bob Segers release ..however i found out his newest release
first in a long while " FACE THE PROMISE" Bob shows his songwriting and singing have only gotten better with time ... worth the wait ....
"Against the Wind" will always have a special place in my heart...

5 out of 5 stars Thankyou Amazon.com.......2006-11-30

Thankyou again Amazon.com for putting all your track listings on line.This has made it easier for me to download all music for nicks.
The money saved I have managed to buy full circle skirts with yards and yards of material to dance with.
I have managed to throw all my trousers away from my wardrobe and replace it with beautiful long flowing circle skirts.
Fantastic. I would rather wear skirts any day than trousers and listen to the muusic @ the same time.
Happy Xmas

3 out of 5 stars Against the Wind.......2006-10-06

The CD I got is a "digitally remastered" version of the original. It seems to me that they took the opportunity to smooth out the rough edges in Seger's voice, like the used to do to Roger Daltry.

I like the album but feel that it is missing something.

4 out of 5 stars My favorite Seger CD. His zenith has you boppin........2006-08-01

From the beginning with "Horizontal Bop" to the closing with "Shining Brightly," Seger exceeds "Night Moves in quantity and quality. He got more radio play off of this CD, and from more stations. "Her Strut" is one of my favorite Seger songs. And "Fire Lake, Betty Lou, Accompany Me," and "Against The Wind" are all fabulous Seger classics, lyricallly and musically. I know there's lots of folks who say there wasn't much breadth to Seger's musical ability. But once you take Seger for what he's worth, judge him by his era, his contemporaries and what it is exactly he does best, it's hard to find any future or previous CDs by him that measure up to this one. Of course, there's also the immeasurable "nostalgia" that many have for this CD, not to mention the buiit in nostalgia Seger puts into most of his music and storytelling. I think it will stand the test of time.

5 out of 5 stars The Distance.......2006-10-01

No Bob Seger fan should do without this album and "Its A Mystery" The man never makes bad music. Its timeless. We need more of his style of music.

3 out of 5 stars Very poor musically.......2006-07-09

I've bought the vinyl LP version of this album, because someone had recommended it to me.
I'm not a Bob Seger's fan, but I found the music of this album much too simple, "déjà vu", and pretty boring for me who is usually into progressive rock.
I nevertheless gave 3 stars, because I might not be very objective to judge this sort of music, and I don't want to make Bob's fans too angry.
Simply put, I could not believe my eyes when seeing this record had an average rating of more than 4 stars, so wanted to correct a little bit this.

5 out of 5 stars Good price, good service.......2005-09-22

CD was at a good price and arrived in good shape and in good time.

5 out of 5 stars The last of the "real" Seger.......2004-12-15

By the early '80s, Bob Seger had established himself as a firm proponent of the guitar-heavy, rhythmically driven, classic-rock school of American music. Many consider The Distance to be his final album in that vein, and what a heck of an album it is. This is one to pop in the CD player when you first get in the car and just drive, drive, drive. This album demonstrates all of the musical categories Seger created for himself and went on to dominate. The pure, guitar-driven rockers "Even Now" and "Makin' Thunderbirds," two of Seger's most compelling tunes, start out the album; the latter hearkens back to the Chuck Berry sound he so assiduously assimilated in his earlier days, while the former represents the apex of the Bob Seger sound he went on to create. "Boomtown Blues" powers on in a similar vein, although it slows things down slightly to create (true to its name) a more bluesy feel. "Shame on the Moon," "Love's the Last to Know" and "Comin' Home" showcase another famous side of Seger's talent: the simple, soulful, almost country ballad in the style of "We've Got Tonight." "Roll Me Away," on the other hand, foreshadows a genre Seger would turn to with increasing frequency later in his career: the "rock tale." Here it's a story of a love that died as abruptly as it began, couched within the larger framework of one man's journey to find himself. Lyrically, it's an irresistibly compelling song--although it's admittedly pretty easy to miss the lyrics if you're focusing on the great beat (as I've been guilty of doing). This album has everything that makes Seger great: the simplicity and easy accessibility, the inspired lyrics, and--above all--that great Heart of America sound. It's one of his best efforts and a worthy addition to your collection.

5 out of 5 stars Seger's Best.......2004-07-17

"Shame On The Moon" is Seger's best song and this is his best CD. It belongs in any collection of American Music.
