This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
Upon the release of GREATEST HITS VOL. 2, Michigan`s answer to Bruce Springsteen had receded into the Boss` considerably large shadow, thanks to a self-imposed hiatus that found him recording only two studio albums in the 1990s. Despite the seemingly short attention span of the pop music world, this particular collection presents a fine argument that may reinforce Bob Seger`s stature in the eyes of non-die-hard fans that only know him from regular rotation on classic rock radio.
This compilation dips into Seger`s periodic soundtrack contributions ranging from TEACHERS` piano-driven "Understanding" and the soaring MOR Martina McBride duet "Chances Are" from HOPE FLOATS to "Shakedown," the rocker`s only chart-topper from BEVERLY HILLS COP II. The collection also scratches the surface of Seger`s influences, particularly when he goes back to 1981 and 1974, with covers of Rodney Crowell`s countrified lament "Shame on the Moon" and Tom Waits` barfly anthem "New Coat of Paint," respectively. This Detroit native also tips a hat to his harder-rocking side by tossing classics like the salacious "The Fire Down Below," the howling "Her Strut," and "Tomorrow," a song written for this album that boasts a stomping tempo and Joan Osborne-like harmonies.

Customer Reviews
Overall Rating: 5
If you liked Greatest HIts I, this one is just as entertaining and classic. Like the first greatest hits, it lacks more live tracks, but it is still worth every penny spent. This is a must have for any rockers library.
