Well this sure sounds good for being recorded in 1965 as it is described. when it was really recorded the 5th and 6th of 1975. Bob Seger didnt even have his beat-nic look in 65. well maybe he did. The best of all time? Someone was not around in the double album era of the mid / late 70's. I personal love live albums. Everyone was doing a double album at the time. I tend to like them all. Next we will be comparing guitar players. This one is better than that one. This is too stupid for even me.
I have the album no record player after listening to ur download will have to go find it in a CD lol 11/17/11 fourth time seeing him in concert in Louisville,Ky.He rocked it out still going at 67 !!!
The unique thing about 8-Track was, you'd pop in "Live Bullet" at bedtime and that sumbitch would just keep looping and playing all night, drilling the playlist into your subconscious. Twenty years later, you hear any classic Seger song and you're mentally previewing the next song. And don't get me started about the songs that straddled tracks. I can still hear that "chunk" as "Travelin' Man" turns into "Beautiful Loser"!
It was 1975 I was there when this was recorded Detriot Michigan .The best rock n roll city ever ..So many awsome concerts in the 70 's and 80's . I was fortunate to work many many of them as a sound engeneer .
@MrJaxJim We may have bumped into each other at some of the venues. I used to work for Brass Ring Productions back in the 70's. I worked in promotions with WABX , WWWW and CJOM. Back in the good old days when Michigan Palace and Masonic had some real kick ass shows! I even got to play a go-fer for Lou Reed and Iggy at the Michigan Palace. Iggy has some good stuff! LOL
@scottmi19 w4 wow haven't heard that in a long long time. what about the Grandy Ballroom. paid 6.50 per ticket. I still have 4 whole tickets no one wanted to go, , was dragin cable as a temp. it was Sept.the 2nd the 3rd, the 5th and the 6th.they recorded all four nights. i don't remember which song it is on the album but one of them was trashed (a water issue) all four times, and they wanted on the album so that one song is not live. thanks guys 4, flash backs and the reminiscing.
@boodles1960 I grew up in a suburb of Detroit. I used to see him for a dollar playing at a YWCA back about 1972 when he was with Teegarden & VanWInkle (smokin OP's). And I was at this concert at Cobo one of the 2 nights they were recording. I think I paid maybe $8.00 to see him. Concerts were cheap back then. I saw Pink Floyd in 1972 for $6.00. I still have the stub!.
Grew up in Genesee MI , Bob Seger would play in a little bar called the Mikatam Lounge. Would sit in my bedroom on hot summer nights listening because the bar doors were all open and we lived that close . There's no other rock n roll that can bring back more memories or make you move than Bob Seger. Touring this year I plan to hit as many as I can in MI along with my kids now 21 and 19, they love him too...Who wouldn't?
While the rest of the world was listening to 'Framton comes alive' at this time...the kids in Detroit were listening to this...hands down one of the best live albums ever recorded...these two nights of concerts at Cobo were litterally the definition of cathing lightning in a bottle...
I grew up in Detroit in the 70's, and Ill tell ya, I wore this album out. Gotta be one of the best live albums by ANYONE. All you youngins wonder why put these guys on such high pedestals now, cuz they played like this then, thats why.
this album came out in 1976. i seen bob and the boys do this tour 3 times that summer and what a concert. he blew his load on this album and was his last greatest production to date. this was recorded live with a 16 track tape equipment. you will never see or hear a live performance ever again of this quality by any artist. there r no artist out here performing to this day with the integrity that bob seger and the boys had then ever again on stage.
Everyone who grew up in Michigan from around '66 to 1980 has their own great "This is where I saw Bob Seger" story. I've heard stories about him playing at the prom for one of our local high schools. I saw him in as the opening act for Queen - the word was Freddie Mercury and Co. wouldn't let him do an encore...for obvious reasons. Bob Seger! One of the all timers! God bless you, Bob and thanks for sharing the gift...
the greatest album, EVER. i had the honor to be there in cobo when it was recorded. those were precious days in Detroit to see this and Ironbutterfly at the state fair grounds. I have been very fortunate to live in those times. Bob other great album is "Smokin O.P.s"
Just to correct...this was recorded on September 5, 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit (not April 1976--that concert was at the Silverdome in Pontiac, MI). I know it was September 5, 1975 because I was there in the sound truck when it was recorded.
Phish should do this album on Halloween 2010 in the Palace at Auburn Hills .........if you don't understand - Phish wears a musical costume every Halloween. Past have included Exile on Main Street , Velvet Underground, White Album etc etc......this album is classic!
ive told my family if they were ever trying to bring me out of a coma. hook up the ipod ,insert and crank it up. if Live Bullit wont do it, call the undertaker
@dime1214 I will go with one of the best. but the best of all time? your joking right or from Michigan? But Teddy didnt do to bad on his Double Live Album either and thier are a dozen or so other's. I think Bob was on the road from 75 to 85 as he was in town twice a year atleast
yeah no chit, what happened to the jam? bob seger live bullet one of the GREATEST albums released in the 70's! if not the GREATEST! i was 12 years old listenin to this in my old mans car on the 8 track tape!!! fkn classic shit!!!!!!
this was recorded in 1975,not 1965
