'Cause Bob Seger wasn't real Happy with the Original Studio Version! (Or, This whole album in general!)
It was released on THIS LP in 1973...
But has failed to see a CD release (Unless You count the Unofficial Version that, I Believe, Bob and his lawyers put a stop to soon after it was issued...)

Bob Gives Midnight Rider a Go on this one...
Also, on this record is Rosalie, a fine rocker that Thin Lizzy played Live!
I've Been Workin' also survived with Turn The Page to make Live Bullet...
Anyway, It's Here to Hear, IF You've never heard this record!

ReplyDeleteThis was a fine album that could use a remix.
Yeah, a Good Remix would do the Trick, Anon!

ReplyDeleteWhat an Ego to be Speakin' for "The Rest Of The WORLD!"
I find all caps to be annoying. To each his own. Thankx for the share

The Rest of the World
Wow! Am I glad I was wrong...
DeleteThis gives me Hope!
ALL the countries in the World (even those that don't write or speak English) stopped what they were doin' (War, Spying, Pandemic Research, Etc.) to weigh in on this - the most Important Topic of ALL!
Who knows? Maybe World PEACE is POSSIBLE?
Thank You, The Rest of the World
Its no secret to us Detroiters that Bob made his best music before he got "famous". He made seven albums before Beautiful Loser got him recognition, and none of them have been re-released, which is a damn shame. "Seven" is my favorite, followed closely by this one.
ReplyDeleteLent this to a friend in the mid 70's. He left it in the backseat of his car which produced a huge unplayable warp. Took years to find a replacement.
ReplyDeleteIf you're not from the Detroit area and don't know the back story to Rosalie, it's worth a short mention.
ReplyDeleteThe song "Rosalie" was written in tribute to a real person: Rosalie Trombley, the music director of CKLW-AM in Windsor, Ontario, which was one of North America's leading Top 40 radio stations of the 1960s and 1970s.
The Big 8 was the predominant pop music station during the 60's and into the 70's in the Detroit Market (remember, Windsor is actually south of Detroit). If your song got on CKLW, it was almost guaranteed to be a hit.
That's what Seger was singing about.
Thanks, waits...for the backstory!
Delete"She's Everybody's Favorite Little Record Girl."
Quite an interesting listen for someone only familiar with the live version of Turn The Page. Thanks.
DeleteExcellent comment, B4 - Exactly who I was aiming at when posted!
Delete(Didn't realize, at the time, I'd start a World Crisis...)
Ah, But it was well worth it!
MUSHLEY needs to get a life or start his own blog - fucker!
ReplyDeleteI've got the perfect title of the Blog:
ReplyDeleteTHE REST OF THE WORLD SAYS
Well, I have to agree, all Caps are annoying, I'm a Pens fan. Let's Go Pens. And geesh, I came for the music, and stayed for the Hockey. Good Stuff.
ReplyDeleteJust an Aside, FBS is one of the preeminent muusic blogs and still doing it at almost nine years of age. I've found if there was something I may not have thought was up to snuff, generally turned out that I was just wrong. If FBS says its so, just go with it, it will grow on ya. And if it doesnt, you tried something new and it wasnt for you, but at FBS the menu is on constant rotation and the cooks are damn good, so I bet you dont swing and miss twice in a row. But, if you dont like the way the chefs make yer SOS, Gumbo, or Haggis, there are plenty of other places to get yer grub on so g'won, go explore, or better yet, start your own diner, just stay away from an all Caps theme, you will alienate the fans of 30 other teams.
KUDOS fBS, amazingly curated menu, and 24/7/365 x 9 (almost)
