Bob is an incredibe performer aand Mongrel was a excellent record. I used to go to see him all over the south. He was one of the best acts at Atlanta Pop II in 1970. He did, as the fellow said, always gave his audience 110%. Pep Perine was an awesome drummeer(RIP) Dan Honnaker was an inspiring bassist and Dan Watson? was a perfect compliment to the Seger sound. I met Bob once and found him to be genuine, thooughtful and in control of his ego. In fact, a really nice guy.
this picture is from the cincinatti pop festival 1970. I know because I was there! we detroiters went anywhere to see bob,the stooges(Iggy pop)alice cooper,the MC5, ect....ect. still have my original mongrel album in good condition.
This strong song is from the Mongrel, with this one finish the "B" side of the L.P. Marvelous one. It is the album I love in my collection. Pep Perrine makes me feel enrgetic with his style. The best project Seger had ever had.
@michisade1 I would say Mongrel is the System's best effort as well, though I don't think any of the songs on it top 2+2 or Ramblin' Gamblin' Man. It's just a very consistent album--not a clunker on it! It's interesting that they never had a follow-up.
As for this song--an undiscovered classic, in my opinion.
This is a live track recorded at a midsummer pop festival crosley field cincinnati ohio may 1970

Check out the bass lines just before the choruses. And the funky break at 5:09. Amazing! I remember when they all traveled in a white van.

They had the baddest drum set up ever. It takes a lot of balls to attempt to cover this monster song. Gotta love it.
