Bob Seger - Like a Rock. Not his best album, but it contains one of his best songs. My gosh - have we ever seen so much leather on four post peak rockers? Three are in leather pants, and I have to believe that stuff just does not breath. OK back to the record. At this point (1986) the Silver Bullet Band is: Himself on acoustic guitar, guitar, piano, vocals. Craig Frost - organ, synthesizer, piano, keyboard. Chris Campbell no bass. And Alto Reed - baritone saxophone, tenor saxophone. LAR is his 13th album and the great power hit-the-road athems are in the proverbial rear view mirrow and we may be close to 50 or over (so notwithstanding Fire Inside), we still get that Seger vide that hit un in the gut in late high school in the 70's. Note also for the title track, that Bob taps Bill Payne for the piano work and the aweome and seemlingly ever-present Russ Kunkel on drums. More on Payne: he was a founding member Little Feat and has recorded and or played with everyone: J. J. Cale, the Doobies, Emmylou Harris, Bryan Adams, Pink Floyd, Toto, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, Stevie Nicks, etc. Click post title for one of my video reviews.
