Ep 88: Bob Seger, Part Two: "Rockstar Era" (1980 - 2024)

What this episode covers

This is Part TWO of Play That Rock n' Roll's retrospective about the legendary career of BOB SEGER. In this episode, we cover the commercial heyday of the Silver Bullet Band, Bob's foray into the MTV era, and what he has been up to in recent years. We also discuss some major pop culture events Bob passed on, his connections to Miami Vice, and the biggest chart hit of his career. To give further insight into some of the topics covered, I have included clips from my conversation with music journalist Gary Graff, who co-wrote a book about Bob's early career. I also included a selection of my conversation with Brian Colburn of the My Weekly Mixtape podcast about one of Bob's best albums.
