@@darastarscream I did get pulled over one time by a Maine trooper. I honestly told him, but Seger was on the radio! He laughed and said get the hell out of here and slow it down.
@@Paula-rj3fx Any more come to mind? Also make sure you drive something faster than the state troopers. Won't mean not getting caught, just means a chance to hear the end of the song.
I read in the liner notes of Seger's greatest hits CD that there are actually 2 separate drummers playing on this song. Once you know that, if you listen closely, you can hear them. I think it was Seger also said that the first time he heard it played on the radio, he looked down at the speedometer of his car and he was doing 90.
"She looked at him with those soft eyes so innocent and blue. He knew right then he was too far from home." ...Some of the greatest lyrics ever written.
Moved from Philly to Michigan 8 years ago. I've been indoctrinated in "the way" of Meijers, Vernors as medicine, Coneys, the beaches, map on the hand, party stores, and of course Bob Seger. Of those, Seger is by far my favorite. Good to hear someone else saying what a good guy he is.
He’s got one of those voices that when he brings it down and then he slowly builds it back up he just gives you chills all through your body. His music is deep and from the heart.
Another pearl of a song. If you haven't yet try out "Mainstreet" by Bob, it's got the Muscle Shoals Rhythm section backing him and those guys are the tops.
Do yourself a favor and invest in the live album “Nine Tonight”. It is a jam the whole way through. Great versions of many of his best songs. Love the version of “Mainstreet” better than the studio version.
One of my favorite Bob Seger songs. "She stood there bright as the sun on that California coast. He was a Midwestern boy on his own. She looked at him with those soft eyes so innocent and blue. He knew right then he was too far from home."
I don't what is about Bob Seger, When You're actually listening to His Music He'll Be my Favorite Singer Songwriter of All Time and that Particular Song will be the greatest song Ever Written.. And yet Anytime someone asks me who's your Favorites.. It's always the Doors , Led Zepplin... Bob Seger's name never hits that list.. But when You're listening in that Moment His Words, His Music Grabs your brain your soul, Your Memories, He is everyman living everyone's life at the same time and Belting it out loud and Proud. He is the Soundtrack of Life incarnate. Thanks Bob!!!
1978 driving my Tr6 down the sunset strip listening to this song on KRLA on the radio. 33 years old then wish I could go back. Every time i hear this song I remember that moment
All of "Uncle Bob's" music reminds me of my childhood. His music was a staple when going "up north" in the summer time in Michigan. Michiganders love Bob Seger ❤
1987. I was home on leave from West Germany. The night before I scheduled to go back Brother Bob was going to play at the Myriad in Oklahoma City, sold out of course. The day of the show it was announced there were extra seats available. I went to the box office and got tickets for me and my best friend. What a way to send me off. One of the best shows I have seen. Thanks Jamal for sharing these videos with us. Peace my brother 🙏
The musicianship in this band was unreal, how tight they were with each other and in sync all the way through every song. Bob Seger is one of those guys that will continue to play on the radio and touch everybody no matter how old they are.
I have heard people say they don't care for this song and I wonder how anyone who likes rock could not love this beautiful masterpiece! Just a great song in all aspects!!
Bob Seger was a HUGE star in Michigan for about 10 years before he hit big nationally with Live Bullet in 1977. Some of his great early songs were Heavy Music, Ramblin Gamblin Man and Get Out of Denver.
He was kind of the first exodus from the great lake in the 70's and 80's. Marshall Mathers was part of the 2nd in the early 2000's with the real slim shady. Now we're wait for the great revival.
Saw Bob Seger for the second time a few years ago. He did the last show at the Palace of Auburn Hills before they closed it down. That show was the best concert I ever went to. Aside from being an awesome performer, a couple of other things stood out. He never cursed during the entire show, and he never talked about politics. Bob is a hometown classic!
Don't get Bob Seger confused with Jimi Hendrix. The Bob Seger System was the name of Bob's burgers band after he signed a contract with Capitol Records in 1968. The Silver Bullet Band wasn't formed until 1974.
My children grew up listening to this! While on vacations blasting on my stereo cassette player in my old Chevy suburban ! Thanks for this beautiful memory!!!❤ now we listen to it still in my old Chevy suburban!😅 with my new CD player 40 years where did thay go!🤷♂️🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing this. Seger was one of my brother's favorite singers back in the '70s. This song is basically the story of his life. Midwestern boy, moved to LA area, fell in love, and sadly it ended. He ultimately lost his life to the losses he experienced. But he loved California when he was there. Every time I hear this song it takes me back to my brother.
I grew up on Bob Seger, driving from Grundy Va to Ky . He played the "Pink Room" back where I am from I have seen 3 times live and he still ROCKED IT HARD . I drove home in a snow storm and it was worth it
I'm a drummer of 35 years plus. I learned this song years ago. Played in a band opening for metal bands for 2 years. Loved every minute and I was 18. Didn't work out $$$. This groove is difficult to stay on top of. Kick ass groove. Watch your stuff simply because you seem to be good people brother. Hope the future is good to you. Time to subscribe. Stay true to yourself. HSAS missing you with Sammy Hagar is a kick ass song 98 percent of America has never heard. Give it a listen.
Like I said before, quintessential Bob Seger .. always tells a story ! This is the key to being a true artist .. no auto tune here .. always amazing ..
@Tom Faigle And when we've bathed in Bob's talents, what of ELO's/Jeff Lynnes back catalogue. There are so many great songs Jamal will be in business the rest of his days.
This reminds me of times spent with my older brother and his son's, on our way to Smith MTN. Lake, Va. We'd go for a weekend, or longer to fish for hybrid stripers, listening to Bob Seger all the way there, and back.
Got to see him in 1980 in Miami at Miami Baseball stadium. He gave it his all and then some. Talked a lot to all us kids about life between songs. Inspirational, beautiful man. One of the best performances I’ve ever seen, if not the best.
You aren't old enough to remember Cheryl Tiegs. She was one of the first super models to appear on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue way back in the early seventies. (You need to see the picture of her in a mesh net one piece. That picture almost turned me into a man years before I was ready. Anyway.....) Bob saw that picture (It was a Time Magazine cover and NOT a Sports Illustrated cover that Bob saw to inspire this song. I kind of knew that but the thought of Cheryl Tiegs must have scrambled my brains for a bit. Thanks to Will Dwyer for slapping some sense into my addled brain.) of Ms. Tiegs and thought to himself, "What if a young boy from the midwest went to California and met this girl?" And thus was born another Seger classic. I can never tire of Bob. Timeless and joyous music. You need to meet up with SoulTrainBro. Then we could have a dual reaction of two of the coolest dudes on the internet! Keep On Truckin' Peace
Went to see him live twenty years ago. Sounded just as good as his records. Should give a listen to "Like a Rock" by him. Good enough for Chevy trucks to use as their theme song for their commercials for years and years. Known as one of the greatest balladeers of all time.
I'm so happy to see you going down the Bob Seger rabbit hole. I loved him as an aritst since I was a teenager back in the 80's. The driving beats and the piano are trademarks of his sound and I love it.
I knew as a kid when this came on mom and I would be dancing around the living room. I got to take her to see him again a few years back, wonderful memories ❤️
You should see live version of this song. The pure joy and emotion he has while singing with the band playing a hundred miles an hour will move your best soul.
This and "Fire Inside" by Bob Seger are some of my biggest favs of all time. Really surprised those two are not often mentioned as his best. Sure each to their own but man so much energy and feeling.
When your dimples come out I KNOW you are feeling it! He was my favorite artist when I was 17. Moved the Tampa from Ohio and listened to him the entire drive down here! Use to go to Clearwater beach watch the sunrise over the Gulf with doors open, windows down and listened to him as loud as the volume would allow! Very underrated artist and song writer!
Bob Seger was almost required listening when I was growing up in the Detroit area (Bob is from nearby Ann Arbor). I couldn't even begin to guess how many nights I spent listening to his music in the dark with my headphones on, much less in my car with the windows down. Some other songs you might consider reacting to: Mainstreet, Rock and Roll Never Forgets, Mary Lou, Her Strut, We've Got Tonight, Beautiful Loser, and Fire Down Below.
This LP....WHAT a gathering of now LEGENDS! Billy Payne of Little Feet fame,....hot on that organ you love so much! That steady drum beat is non other than David Teegarden! The Wiki on this LP is mind blowing, takes ya back to when reading the back of an LP was discovering how many of these were THAT good & were ALL over the place. Felder & Frey are on this LP along w/ greats like Clydie King & TEN other BGV singers. WONDERFUL!!
Saw him in the early 90s at the Universal Amp in Hollywood. This was his encore. The whole place went up and we thought the building would collapse. The floor was shaking. It was incredible. I'll never forget it. This song gives me chills.
Silver Bullet Band! One of the most talented, tightest and underrated bands of the rock era. Thanks for the Bob Seger exploration! One you ought to check out is Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man from 1968. Raw energy.
Jamel, as always, thanks for the bridge. But you left out one song on the "Against the Wind" album. Forgive me for pointing this out but the name of the tune is "Her Strut".
This is one of a handful of songs where, if I'm driving down the freeway, before I know it I'm doing about 90.
*Definitely* watch your speed when this comes on.
@@darastarscream I did get pulled over one time by a Maine trooper. I honestly told him, but Seger was on the radio! He laughed and said get the hell out of here and slow it down.
I’m the same way with most Who songs...
Daphne Estes 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@daphneestes8694 The Maine Staties always understand
A very dangerous song to listen to while driving. The pace of the drum beat pushes the excel throttle to the floor.
Oh I agree. This song can get you speeding ticket real fast, if you are not careful.
@@Paula-rj3fx Any more come to mind? Also make sure you drive something faster than the state troopers. Won't mean not getting caught, just means a chance to hear the end of the song.
@@cudwieser3952 LOL
Thank God I had cruise control on my 1978 Thunderbird...LOL

I think it was Seger also said that the first time he heard it played on the radio, he looked down at the speedometer of his car and he was doing 90.
That's the "Silver Bullet Band". One of the best backing bands in rock and roll.
Absoloutley
Detroit rockers. They don't mess around.
That drum line is just sick. The roll/double snare on every other beat is outrageous. As you said, Jamel, it's just relentless and forces you to move!
It's a sweater for sure. That's one where the drummer is like, "Okay guys, let's put this in between a couple slow ones." 😅
The drums are recorded in two parts and layered on top of each other.There's two different drum rhythms going on at the same time.
@@willdwyer6782 was about to type the very same. look up other drummers doing it... its hard a.f. to playbut can be done.
Yeah - one recorded twice on the record, two for the gigs.
Amen Matt ! When I was a paramedic this is one of the songs I would listen too going to a call ! Also I was a drummer for 40 years. !
"She looked at him with those soft eyes so innocent and blue. He knew right then he was too far from home." ...Some of the greatest lyrics ever written.
Bob lives a a few minutes from me. He's known to be a down to earth good guy and his music is Michigan gospel. Glad to see you enjoy.
I have been a huge fan going on 40+ years now... seeing him live was on bucket list but worried it is one I won’t be able to fulfill
Michigan gospel, that's right. 👍
Moved from Philly to Michigan 8 years ago. I've been indoctrinated in "the way" of Meijers, Vernors as medicine, Coneys, the beaches, map on the hand, party stores, and of course Bob Seger. Of those, Seger is by far my favorite. Good to hear someone else saying what a good guy he is.
Not just Michigan, but Midwest gospel
@@MadSamurai93 amen!
"She looked at him with those soft eyes so innocent and blue. He knew right then he was too far from home." Lyrical perfection.
Bob Seger appears to have met every girl I've ever loved lol
Before rappers
Bob dropping bars
And dio 😏
❤
Been there- done that ! A smart guy figures that out before it's too late. Wish I was that smart !
"She had been born with a face she knew would let her get away" - another fantastic line
He’s got one of those voices that when he brings it down and then he slowly builds it back up he just gives you chills all through your body. His music is deep and from the heart.
FINALLY someone is reacting to Bob Seger!!!!! I grew up listening to him, always amazing. Turn the Page, one of the best songs EVER!!!!!
His voice mixed with the storytelling quality of the lyrics make him a legend in my mind. I love the bass in this song, too.
Have you noticed that every song you listen to so far has been great by Bob that's because he is great
Simply one of the best written songs of all time. You can visualize every part of the story and the instrumentation perfectly captures the emotions.
Another pearl of a song. If you haven't yet try out "Mainstreet" by Bob, it's got the Muscle Shoals Rhythm section backing him and those guys are the tops.
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers. And they've been known to pick a song or two. Yes they do.
Most of his biggest records were made at Muscle Shoals. The Swampers play on a ton of his recordings.
Do yourself a favor and invest in the live album “Nine Tonight”. It is a jam the whole way through. Great versions of many of his best songs. Love the version of “Mainstreet” better than the studio version.
@@Brainshave01 Still the Same too!
Mainstreet got to be one of the most beautiful song ever!!
“We’ve Got Tonight” and "Mainstreet" are songs by him you must hear. You will not be sorry.
We've Got Tonight is one of all-time favorites. Love me some (all) Seger.
@@milesjergens9088 Who needs tomorrow.
Yes - romantic, sexy, talented storytelling ... thank you, Bob, for gifting the soundtrack of our dating lives, holidays, and road trips. Love it! 👋🇦🇺
Another vote for we've got tonight-killer tune
Love that song
Man, I love when the light bulb goes on above Jamel's head, and he realizes he's heard the song before! 😂
Every Seger song he's done that light has come on.
I wish I could like this 1000s of times
Jamal, great music is great!
@@lionskoolaid7521 The guy is the singers singer. He's inspired many and written for many more.
@@cudwieser3952 yep. I live 25 minutes from Detroit, Seger is a staple around here always. If you don't like him, those be fightin words 😂

Bob Seger is one of the major gods in the pantheon of rock-n-roll...
Damn right hes a legend
Heard this song and was hooked Driving drums, bass the Piano sprinkling it's magic.Ouch.Shout out to the backing vocals and Bob of course
GREAT instrumentals! Great voice!! Ride that train!!!
Saw Bob Segar in Greensboro, N.C. in the 70's . One of the best concerts I've ever been to. Will never forget it.
Travelin Man/Beautiful Loser by Bob Seger is a must listen
Especially the Live Bullet version.
Travelin man is a must. As a man, I relate to it. Those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul
@@Wolfncsupack42 yes, it is a hauntingly beautiful song to me with a lot of memories for me
@@melindavoris5036 seger can hit the heart like few ever could. there is that haunt and depth in his best songs.
I was gonna write this comment. I knew someone else was on it though!
The first song I heard with Bob Seger. Been a fan ever since. A fantastic voice. Tells the story of my life.
"Walking in Memphis" by Marc Cohn has to be added to your list of songs to get to.
Could be a while before we get to Beal. So much still to come down the pipeline. Might pick up Cher on the way.
1978 driving my Tr6 down the sunset strip listening to this song on KRLA on the radio.
33 years old then wish I could go back. Every time i hear this song I remember that moment
Oh, please please do “We’ve Got Tonight.” It’s just a beautiful, lonely song.
I've recommended "We've Got Tonight" to Jamel at least 3 times, hopeful your comment will lead him to pull the trigger on it and react to that song!
Kenny and Sheena had a bigger hit with it than Bob did.
It was Seger's mom's favorite song of his!
LOVE that song!!!
KK85 I remember nominating it for my high school senior prom song. I guess I didn’t quite know *exactly* what it was about at the time, haha.
So awesome to see folks listening to actual musicians.
All of "Uncle Bob's" music reminds me of my childhood. His music was a staple when going "up north" in the summer time in Michigan. Michiganders love Bob Seger ❤
I'm from Michigan too and he's Uncle Bob to us.
Geo B Yes!! Another Michigander here- grew up listening to ‘ Uncle Bob’ . He’s a good ole Michigan boy. ❤️❤️💕❤️
1987. I was home on leave from West Germany. The night before I scheduled to go back Brother Bob was going to play at the Myriad in Oklahoma City, sold out of course.

Love the background vocals....pure gospel singing right out of his Motown roots!
The relentless beat is a metaphor for the relentless nights in Hollywood. Thank you for all the Bob!!!!
I have heard people say they don't care for this song and I wonder how anyone who likes rock could not love this beautiful masterpiece! Just a great song in all aspects!!
A classic from the time when songs actually told a story and moved you body and soul!
THIS DUDE IS UNBELIVEABLE.....TALK ABOUT A ROCK & ROLLER!!!
Bob Seger was a HUGE star in Michigan for about 10 years before he hit big nationally with Live Bullet in 1977.
Some of his great early songs were Heavy Music, Ramblin Gamblin Man and Get Out of Denver.
He was kind of the first exodus from the great lake in the 70's and 80's. Marshall Mathers was part of the 2nd in the early 2000's with the real slim shady. Now we're wait for the great revival.
Just realizing how many great Bob Seger songs there are. Keep up the good work love you so much joy goosebumps
I agree with those saying try Mainstreet. One of his best.
Saw Bob Seger for the second time a few years ago. He did the last show at the Palace of Auburn Hills before they closed it down. That show was the best concert I ever went to. Aside from being an awesome performer, a couple of other things stood out. He never cursed during the entire show, and he never talked about politics. Bob is a hometown classic!
If you like "church organ", try the Bob Seger Experience's Ramblin Gamblin Man from 1969. Short, fast, catch tune.
Bob Seger System-1969......a classic
arguably his best song.
He finally did "Smokin'," but I've been hollering about "Green Eyed Lady" by Sugarloaf for his RDA of nasty organ licks.
Don't get Bob Seger confused with Jimi Hendrix. The Bob Seger System was the name of Bob's burgers band after he signed a contract with Capitol Records in 1968. The Silver Bullet Band wasn't formed until 1974.
Yes the live version!
Truly one of the best song writers. He paints a picture in your head - a real talent.
There's a live version in San Diego 1978, where he rides this groove like it was a Harley.
My children grew up listening to this! While on vacations blasting on my stereo cassette player in my old Chevy suburban ! Thanks for this beautiful memory!!!❤ now we listen to it still in my old Chevy suburban!😅 with my new CD player 40 years where did thay go!🤷♂️🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸
Seger is one of the artists you almost are required to watch a live version at some point. Amazing artist.
Need to watch the live version, the energy in the performance, absolutely fantastic
Lovin you doing "Brother Bob" for us Jamel.
You can feel this song, you can see this song! The Silver Bullet Band is bad ass and carries Bob Seger's incredible vocals so beautifully!!!!
This album. this song, reminds me of my mother when she was vivacious and free. Dancing to Bob Seger.

My fave Bob Seger song. Love the drums with the funny 'skip' in the beats. Great chorus. Great driving song on a sunny day.
We've Got To Night, by Bob Seger is a song he really stretches his voice out. It's a great ballet that you will appreciate.
Pedanic SOB cometh. The word is Ballad. Ballet is a dance, ballad is a slow romantic song.
Like I said before, quintessential Bob Seger .. always tells a story ! This is the key to being a true artist .. no auto tune here .. always amazing ..
Lol your going to get like 50 different requests now, because that's legitimately how many solid songs he has.
Maybe 100 requests....still can’t believe Let it Rock has not been suggested from Live Bullet!
@Tom Faigle And when we've bathed in Bob's talents, what of ELO's/Jeff Lynnes back catalogue. There are so many great songs Jamal will be in business the rest of his days.

By far my favorite seger song. I am a fairweather fan, and I think this song is like, everything he tries to be being nailed. It's amazing.

George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers....possibly the Worlds Greatest Cover Band.
I can die happy, I saw Bob Seger live. A great experience
God, I love how you really hear and feel the band, the chords and the grooves, and don't just listen to the melody.

Bob Seger is, hands down, one of the best storytellers in music. It’s like you’re right there, living it with him...
Some more of that Detroit Rock-n-Roll. Gotta love those Michigan musicians.
Saw him in the early 90s at the Universal Amp in Hollywood. This was his encore. The whole place went up and we thought the building would collapse. The floor was shaking. It was incredible. I'll never forget it. This song gives me chills.
That album cover is a perfect example of your Michael McDonald & Kenny Rogers combo.
Silver Bullet Band!
One of the most talented, tightest and underrated bands of the rock era.
Thanks for the Bob Seger exploration!
One you ought to check out is Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man from 1968.
Raw energy.
Jamel, as always, thanks for the bridge. But you left out one song on the "Against the Wind" album. Forgive me for pointing this out but the name of the tune is "Her Strut".
One of the all time greatest American storytellers. Even in his up tempo tunes! He is an American treasure.
My second favorite Seger song! Glad you enjoyed it. Next time you go through his works, please react to Main Street.
What’s the first ?

Absolutely my favorite Seger song. Loved your reaction.
