Amazon.com: After more than 10 years working the Midwest club circuit, Detroit's Bob Seger hit mainstream American paydirt with this distillation of working-class values and juke-joint rock & roll. His regional success had been brewing throughout the mid-'70s, but after Bruce Springsteen connected with Born to Run (copping Seger's traditional rock values, to say nothing of his husky tone), it was only a matter of time before Seger found his ticket. Seger scores here with the nostalgic title track, the somber ballad "Mainstreet," the over-tanked rocker "Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgets," and the raunch standard "The Fire Down Below." --Rob O'Connor
Bob Seger Night Moves Had to replace my Night Moves CD. This one is one of Bob's best ever. Night Moves, Mainstreet, Come to Poppa, Ship of Fools are some of my favorites. Good Stuff.
NIGHT MOVES I LIKE THIS ALBUM BUT I ONLY WANTED ONE SONG. I'M GLAD YOU NOW HAVE MP3 DOWNLOADS. THERE WERE NO SINGLE DOWNLOADS FOR THIS ALBUM.
THANKS, ALICE
Seger's Studio Masterpiece A stunningly strong album from Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band, Night Moves is a non-stop rock n' roll party.
Opener "Rock and Roll Never Forgets," is a true rock anthem and one that, with Seger now over 60 years of age, rings as true as ever, as is "The Fire Down Below," which comes in as one of my two or three favorite Seger songs.
Title track "Night Moves" demonstrates Seger's amazing songwriting skills, as does "Sunburst," which really helps to fill out an album.
"Sunspot Baby" is really a treat...a stripped down rock song that's irresistibly fun, as is the bands version of "Come to Poppa."
A great album, from a rock legend and great American story-teller!
Good solid rock and roll While the best song on the album is the title track (and what an amazing, beautiful song it is), as an album it is only good. Definitely not a masterpiece, but very listenable.
Gotta have it Wow, what a great album! What is special about this collection is that it is more about "the Silver Bullet Band" than it is Bob Seger. And while I love Seger, his band never got the credit it deserved. While everyone loves "night moves" (and rightfully so), you really get an appreciation for the Band on songs like "sunspot baby" where the band is wailing and Seger is telling another great story! Every song has something special to offer. While "come to poppa" might not be that popular on the charts, if you focus on the percussions (drummer), you'll want to play it over and over again. Every song is a bit different, some are soft flowing ballads, like you hear on "mainstreet" and "ship of fools", while others like "sunspot baby" and "sunburst" feature the fun upbeat style of the Silver Bullet Band. If you enjoy Seger and his folk-rock style you will absolutely love this album. KC.
