Bob Seger - Turn The Page | REACTION

[@ronjeffrey8641]

Many many years ago, myself and several friend were playing pool in an all night bowling alley, and pool room. We were the only people there. Until around 1AM a large man came in and approached the man at the desk. After talking for a few minutes the bowling alley attendant came up to my friends and I and started to tell us we had to leave. At which time the big guy came over and said "Since we were already there we could stay, but not to let anyone else in"... naturally my friends and I thought the place was being robbed and we were all gonna die. Turned out Bob Seager and his band (Who had just finished a concert in town) had rented the entire bowling alley so they could kick back and relax... we ended up partying with them all night... nicest guy you'd ever want to meet.

Bob Seger always said that this version of "Turn the Page" was the best he'd ever sounded. Of course, Alto Reed on sax, magical!

[@qthelost]

I don't think I have ever heard anybody say, "I don't like Bob Seger." His songs either send you into deep reflection or make you get up and rock out. The passion is always there.

[@CrochetCrochetJoyJoy]

For a long time I couldn't listen to Bob Seger songs because I had terrible associations with them. My mother was an abusive alcoholic and she always listened to Bob Seger when she drank. It was not a good time for me in the mid to late 1980s. But she passed away on 2012, and I have had some time to heal...and start listening to this music again.

[@qthelost]

@@CrochetCrochetJoyJoy That's very understandable that you would associate a certain music with a very bad time in your life. My friend can't be around the smell of whiskey because of her abusive father. It's too strong an association. I'm glad you are listening again and maybe Bob's music will help with the healing. His song "Understanding" always seemed like a very healing song to me.

He is IMHO the voice of America's heartland. When he was young he had an old soul. Turn the page is his best, but Night Moves, Against The Wind and Still the Same are all close seconds. All about yearning for more in the face of our mortality.

[@tenaciousone4721]

I was moving a horse that I saved from becoming dog food about 4 hours away and it took 6 grown men almost an hour to get her in the trailer. My uncle was worried about her in the trailer alone and since I was the smallest I sat on hay for 4 house in a horse trailer. When we stopped to grab food we went into a bar that's famous for its hamburgers in San Antonio, NM The Owl then (The Buckhorn now) and when I walked in wind blown and my hair crazy and covered in horse shit and spit, everyone turned and looked at me. And right then I felt what Bob was signing about.

[@ms.chuckfu1088]

@@Borg1269 You know the story? Rosalie Trombley was the music director at top 40 radio station, CKLW, late 60s to early 80s. Station was in Canada, but could be heard well into Michigan and Ohio. She is said to have ignited careers of Kiss, Ted Nugent, Earth Wind and Fire, The Guess Who, and launched songs by Gordon Lightfoot, Paul Anka, BTO, Burton Cummings and even Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets". This song expressed Seger's frustration at his lack of play on the station at a certain point. They were friends, and she was generally a fan. Helped launch him beyond the Detroit region. But she never did play Rosalie.

When I went into restaurants and would feel these thoughts, I tried to stay clean and worked for a meal when I would do dishes or wash windows. I have personally known Bob all these years and he was always helpful when I wanted to cheer up a cancer patient, with maybe an autograph or a photo... to let them know he wanted to cheer them up.

I love your videos, don't mind when you stop to comment. But you seemed as entranced as we ALL were, back in the 70s, listening to his fabulous voice singing this soulful song. Rendered you speechless, so to speak, what a tribute....best wishes to you, thanks for letting us enjoy your honest reactions.

[@blinds46]

Seger is a good man. He took several years off touring to care for a sick child , just doing local shows. When things were good, he resumed his career. Old Time Rock and Roll is his song.

[@lynngolubic2654]

Those of us who have been fans for decades love to see your honest reaction to this voice we love.

[@deebarlow]

I love Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet band! In the early 80s I worked as a long-distance operator in Chicago! I got the drummer from Silver bullet band on my line and we talked for the longest time. I could’ve got fired for that.! Then he turned around and put every member of the band on the phone to say hello to me and even Bob! He said I want you guys to talk to her. She is the coolest operator I ever met! They invited me to Palatine, Il to an after party! My mom being a black mom, told me hell no I wasn’t going! But you know what that Christmas they sent me a Christmas card I had it in my memory box for the longest!

[@jacobseime9923]

This is one of those songs that you can't help but to sing along with, especially the chorus.

[@Rizik1986]

Bob Seger is one of my all time favorites This song is great I love all of his music

[@saddleupvickysue1412]

I was blessed to see him perform in the 70’s. The saxophone player swung out over the audience playing his heart out. Thank you for reacting to who I consider the “Boss”.

[@harley0546]

[@NiamhCreates]

[@Pokyhawk]

@Move "Show Me the Way" makes a great Sunday-go-to-meeting rock & roll song. Always been one of my favorites.

[@ms.chuckfu1088]

Love Styx. Love Seger more. 😘

[@threwthelookingglass7194]

his... voice.. is so incredibly awsome.. it wakes ... people.upnfrom Comas!!!?.

[@mariefc8504]

This song never gets old and still gives me chills when I hear it. What a great reaction, thank you!

[@SouthernArtist77]

That song played live is one of the best performances I’ve ever seen.

[@Brotha_Teresa]

Same...

[@ericnichols6764]

Bob Seger wrote, sang, and performed live so many great songs. The sax part by Chris “Alto” Reed pierces you.

[@michaelfieser]

Bob Seger is one of the best ever [FULL STOP] and this was one of my favorite albums as a kid in the '70s. However, this is the LIVE version from the 1976 album LIVE BULLET. The studio version from the 1973 album Back in '72, though a great song, it's no where near as awesome as this live version.

[@andymohawk]

When you’re done with all the great Seger suggestions you should try Jackson Browne “The Load Out / Stay” it has a similar feel to turn the page.

[@marcryvon]

Fully agreed !

[@ravenhull]

Just make sure they are together. Officially they are two songs, but they are fully connected.

[@cerisewilson4088]

YES!

[@MrFuzzy1953]

Bob, Mr. "story teller"... Nothing quite like him and we are proud of him here in Michigan...

[@barenkd316]

My favorite song and my favorite KZbin reaction channel = solid, solid Sunday evening!

[@jefftaylor7306]

One of the songs on every truck drivers favorite list...relate so much

[@cathyward5252]

My dad’s music tastes shaped mine from a very young age. I’m now 46, almost 47 and will still listen to ANYTHING Bob Seger thanks to Dad’s influence. He’s still with me, thankfully. But I appreciate his influence on my own musical tastes, probably more than he will ever realizes.

[@Tampahop]

Listening to Bob Seger is like eating comfort food.

[@konnieward8290]

Yes!’ Exactly ❤❤❤❤

[@JoeBlow_4]

True story: when I was in college, a girl who lived in my dorm was dating Bob's guitarist. Most folk didn't know anyone in the band other than Bob Seger and one day he came to pick her up wearing a jacket that read "BOB SEGER AND THE SILVER BULLET BAND GUITARIST" on the back. I thought to myself you know, without that jacket, I'd never pick him out of a crowd. ;)

[@TexasMagnolia]

Joe Blow Never thought about it....so true!

[@lindanorris2455]

Song still gives me chills! love BOB.

[@PolishPrincess53]

Gives me the chills. I met my husband when he was on the road with the band, our son followed in his footsteps. Thanks for doing this.

[@trebreh1100]

"We ain't gonna waste no mo time, let's jump right into it". I love to hear you say that, you should put that on a t-shirt. 👍

[@jakejohansen1889]

Bob Seger - the man, the myth, the Detroit legend. Him & his band have a ton of classic songs.

[@GJRight]

Bob Seger, “Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man”, “Against the Wind”, “If I Were A Carpenter”

[@Jason-wo5rr]

Bob has a depth of character in his voice that he’s been truly blessed to have and thankfully it’s been shared with us. It reminds me of driving up to Indiana back in the mid 80’s with my parents sitting in the backseat passing the time with the radio. It’s damp, cold, wet around thanksgiving. Driving from Florida to Indiana back then wasn’t an easy drive and you’d go from sunshine and beautiful to that miserable wet cold that only Indiana can get at that time of year. Bobs voice always puts me in another time and place in my life. Great song, fun watching your reaction my friend!

[@fighthypocrites7036]

Native Hoosier here. You rolled down Highway 41, right? Killer 41, they called it. I know that cold you're talking about. "Normal " winters were cold and wet as a well digger's ass. I lived in on a farm during the winters of 77 and 78. Snow day after day, then 2" ice. Even the far south got hit by the blizzard of 78. Some drifts were 20 feet tall. Summers were always as hot and humid as Gramm's kitchen on canning day . But days in spring and fall so fine you forgot all about the rest.

[@mogu73]

I had the pleasure of seeing him in Dallas in 1987, and this opened the concert. Wonderful concert.

[@ladylauraanne]

my favorite song by him, and one of my all-time favorite songs in general

[@kirkwbutler]

Growing up in Michigan Bob Seger was a staple. He went to my High school. I never knew him. 15 yrs apart. Main Street, Old Time Rock and Roll.... great songs. By the way you really need to check out Lenny Kravitz.( ANOTHER GREAT BLACK ROCK PERFORMER)Are you going to go my way, fly away, America women.

[@MichaelOinMunich]

Absolutely!

[@stevetabler1794]

I saw Bob in 86 and 2006 , what a Great Artist , took my kids in 2006 , what a concert ,one of the Greatest !!!!

[@scottstuit9305]

Born in Ann Arbor, MI. One of our favorite Michigan son's. Saw him live twice. Amazing.
