That is now quite a list, but at the time, few had heard of these budding rockers.
Bob seger night moves song list movie#
Of the five, four are now in the RRHOF: Seger, Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello and one of the stars of the movie ‘This Is 40’, Graham Parker. Back in the mid-Seventies, I remember reading an article in which the author hoped that these five relatively unknown singer/songwriters would finally get a break and have hit songs and albums. Prior to the winning streak that Seger went on that began with his double-album ‘Live Bullet’ in 1976 through his aforementioned chart-topping single from the ‘Beverly Hills Cop Soundtrack’ in 1987, Seger was a well-respected journeyman heartland rocker. In 2004, Bob Seger was finally inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. From 1976 to 1982, Bob Seger had quite a run, with several Top 40 hits, a number one song (“Shakedown” in 1987), a number one album ( Against the Wind in 1981), and five straight albums that sold in excess of five million copies a piece. Additionally, this man has sold over 10 million copies of his first ‘Greatest Hits’ album alone, making it the biggest-selling compilation of the first decade of the 21st century, beating out The Beatles ‘1’ and Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers’ ‘Greatest Hits’. Obviously, this artist has quite a following to this day, as the man continues to sell-out tour dates. Today, I have decided to tackle an artist for whom I have much respect, though of whom I am lukewarm fan.

If you want to see a full list of releases, check out the Record Store Day website or just show up to your favorite independent record store and browse. I do know Son #1 and me are both looking for the Richard Hell album so, I hope there are two copies at the store. Not sure if the last one will interest Son #2 for his RSD Frank Zappa collection that he has going. And, finally, Frank Zappa has a 12″ single of one of his bizarre songs that’s neither “Valley Girl”, “Bobby Brown” nor any of his other inappropriately titled songs such as “Broken Hearts Are for A$$holes”. Queen is putting out a 12″ single of their own in honor of its 40th anniversary, “We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions”. U2 fans might be interested in a 12″ single of a song from their upcoming album ‘Songs of Experience”. Other releases of interest are Nate Rateliff & the Night Sweats have a 7″ Christmas release of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” and “Santa Baby.” Also, Rush is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the release of ‘A Farewell to Kings” by releasing a 7″ single of “Closer to the Hearts. On the other hand, only 2000 LPs are being printed, so this could be an oddity in one’s Cheap Trick collections. Unfortunately, I have the CD and my beloved rockers from Rockford, Illinois, really stunk up the place with this album. The album is called ‘Christmas, Christmas’ and only 2000 are being printed. Finally, of utmost importance for this Cheap Trick is to find the RSD release of their new Christmas album on vinyl. Only, this vinyl release is a triple album with a couple songs not on the CDs, and each record in the triple-album release will be a different color vinyl (one is red, blue and yellow, sticking with the primary colors). Additionally, Omnivore Records is releasing a vinyl edition of the Raspberries’ double CD edition of ‘Live Pop Art’, the in-concert recording of the band’s 2007 reunion tour.
Personally, I have my eyes on a special release of the hard-to-find Richard Hell punk classic ‘Blank Generation’ album.
And, although this Record Store Day is no way as popular as the one in the Spring, you can still find the occasional special release. Now that Son #1 and his lovely wife have moved back to Indiana, all three Keller men will be able to attend one of favorite wastes of time, Black Friday Record Store Day.
