want to dog out his collections is beyond me.
Let's all agree on one thing. Hee has made some great music. It does not all fit onto one disc. It does not all fit on two discs. If we did three, someone would lament the inclusion of one song to the exclusion of another. If we did a disc with every cut he ever did, others would complain that the one song he did live at Joe Louis Arena in nineteen eighty whatever was not included. Any one disc will not satisfy everyone, and neither will an Anthology.
I am pleased to finally have his song Understanding (from the movie soundtrack Teachers) on disc. I am also pleased to have in one place Shame on the Moon, Fire Lake, and a number of
other cuts available only heretofore on the original release albums.
Seger also replies to those who lament new cuts on discs supposedly only Greatest Hits. In Your Time from Vol. 1 and Satisfied from this volume should shut those critics up for good. To the rest of us, these say only that this is one bad man.
Yes, I thought American Storm, was underrepresented. But it, like Stranger and the Distance, his albums themselves could be greatest hits albums. There is some great great music here. As another reviewer says, stop reading and order!
The gems include "Shame On The Moon"....the origional studio versions of "Katmandu" and "Beautiful Loser"... they belong here...if you like them live...there's "Live Bullet" ! Also here..."Sunspot Baby"..."New Coat Of Paint...and "Manhattan". Of course three movie soundtrack songs that aren't on any of Bob's albums are here. Although "Shakedown" isn't one of my favorites...it has grown on me a bit ! The two new songs are average...but if you're a Bob Seger fan...this is great stuff ! Chill a 12 in the fridge...put both "hits" cd's in your player...program what you want in the order you want...and enjoy !
For those yearning for a boxed set...I'm in radio...and there WAS supposed to be one relesed several years ago or so called "Silver Seger" if I remember correctly.I have the "sample" disc featuring 5 songs...but for whatever reason...it didn't happen...not yet at least ! Order this one right now...enjoy it...and don't let missing cuts get you down...I reiterate that a third hits compilation is probably a good bet...Bob Seger has recorded so much GREAT music !
Rock-and-roll troubadour of the male soul, there is nobody quite like Bob Seger for a night at home after some manly task has been accomplished.
How, then, to sum up the man's gift? Bob Seger's reportoire is one of the purest exemplars of basic, raw rock-and-roll that one can hope to hear. There's nothing fancy. Basic bass patterns, predicatable but competent drumming, the characteristic Seger-esque female background vocals, and Seger himself practically swallowing the microphone. It's classic, and oh how it works!
The two poles of Seger's work are exemplified by the hilariously raucous 'Katmandu', followed immediately by the sensitive and balladic 'Shame on the Moon'. The latter is worth quoting:
Until you've been beside a man
You don't know what he wants
You don't know if he cries at night
You don't know if he dont
When nothin' comes easy
Old nightmares are real
Until you've been beside a man
You don't know how he feels
Once inside a woman's heart
A man must keep his head
Heaven opens up the door
Where angels fear to tread
Some men go crazy
Some men go slow
Some men go just where they want
Some men never go
Oh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon
Everywhere its all around
Comfort in a crowd
Strangers faces all around
Laughin right out loud
Hey watch where your goin
Step light on old toes
Cause until youve been beside a man
You don't know who he knows
Oh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon
Oh blame it on midnight
Ooh shame on the moon
In the hands of a lesser rock-and-roll artist, this tune would sound maudlin, even grotesque. Seger tunes it just right, so much so that even a listener damagingly intoxicated by the crude reductions of men that are too common must surely sense the genuine portrait of the masculine soul that Seger's brush gives us here.
Other high points on this compilation include the bluesy 'Hardest Thing I'll Ever Do' followed by the driving, up-tempo comin'-to-get-you 'Shakedown'. Seger was made for this tune, which served as the theme song for the motion picture Beverly Hills Cop. Yet, for this reviewer, it is Seger's balladesque moments that stand out. Like Eros Ramazotti and other scratchy-voiced male soloists, Seger goes down exceptionally well in duet with an expressive female voice. This anthology's luscious paring of our man with Martin McBride on 'Chances Are' is a parade example.
There are sixteen tracks on this rather thick 'best of' album. It's rich fare. Don't miss Seger's first and principle "Greatest Hits' album, but when you've finished with that one, Greatest Hits 2 will keep the this thing he's got goin', well, goin'.
