Detroit has produced more than its share of great music: from jazz stars like Hank, Thad & Elvin Jones; to the Motown stable of vocal artists, and legendary rhythm players Benny Benjamin and James Jamerson. Not to mention a whole lot of hard funk and primal metal, everyone from Funkadelic and Ted Nugent, to Iggy & The Stooges and the MC5--hard driving, rugged rock and roll. Put it all together with a touch of pop, and a lot of soul, and you`ve got Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band.
It`s easy to divine Seger`s influence on the music of Bruce Springsteen, and draw parallels with the vocal style of Van Morrison. The epic themes of Seger`s characters on "Night Moves" certainly parallel those of the folk heroes who populate Springsteen songs (though he began developing his menagerie a good decade before the Boss). The chant-like, testifying cadences of Seger`s blowtorch voice, and his predilection for gospelish motifs, puts one in mind of the mighty Celt`s visionary flights.
And as the fine GREATEST HITS makes clear, Bob Seger`s influence on contemporary roots music is enormous. A song such as "Like A Rock" practically defines a roots approach to power pop, while "Old Time Rock & Roll" finds Seger in an upbeat, Little Richard mode. Celebrations notwithstanding, "Still The Same" and "Turn The Page" are dark, unstinting unsentimental looks at the underbelly of the showbiz animal and the road.

    Something For Everyone

    klittle22 from Jacksonville, FL, Aug 13, 2008

    Since this is his Greatest Hits, its to be expected that all the good songs are on the CD. "Turn the Page", "Night Moves", Roll Me Away", etc. I love this Cd just for the fact that it has a song for every person. There's slow song, intense songs, songs you wanna rock out to, eyc. I definately recommend this CD to everyone!!!

    midwestrocker123 from KC, MO, Feb 14, 2008

    This is a classic CD for any real rockers library. All of his early hits are here. The only detraction from this CD is the lack of live hits from his Silver Bullet Live album. Overall, this is a must have.

    Great Music ("*¿*")

    Else from Milwaukee, WI, Jan 4, 2008

    This is a GREAT CD. I've always enjoyed Bob Seger on the radio, yet never bought an album. If you've ever thought about buying anything by Seger, this is a great one to have. You'll know every song on it . {"^¿^"}

    Bob Seger & the S.B. Band - Greatest Hits

    dnece from Chicago suburbs, Dec 28, 2007

    Great CD. Best hits w/o bland "fillers". If you like Seger and want one CD of the best songs the band made popular, I'd recommend this purchase. Typical Overstock great delivery within a few days.
