Video: The Anniversary of “Live Bullet”
Seger tells the audience during the second concert taped for this album, “As I told everybody last night, I was reading in Rolling Stone where they said, ‘Detroit audiences are the greatest rock & roll audiences in the world.’ I thought to myself, ‘S---! I've known that for ten years!’” That audience may well have inspired the performances here, which are now iconic. In 1975, when the album was recorded, Seger was huge in the Motor City, but soon after the release of this album, he became one of America’s biggest rock stars.
Today marks the 45th anniversary of Bob Seger’s Live Bullet album…
Live Bullet, the first of two back-to-back albums that took Bob Seger from a regional act to nationally known was released 45 years ago today!
The album was recorded on September 4th and 5th, 1975 at Detroit’s Cobo Hall, it was the first Seger album credited to him and the Silver Bullet Band.
Considered to be one of the best live albums of all-time, Live Bullet contains such Seger classics as “Travelin’ Man”/”Beautiful Loser,” “Turn the Page,” and much more.
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
