Bob Seger/Trivia

• Black Sheep Hit: "Shame on the Moon" somehow got airplay on country radio.
  • The Oscar-nominated "Shakedown", from the Beverly Hills Cop II soundtrack, was his only #1 despite sounding nothing like the rest of his music. In fact, it wasn't even supposed to be his song: it was originally given to Glenn Frey, but he lost his voice on the day of the session and Seger was called in as a replacement.
• Creator Backlash: He refuses to re-release a lot of his early work, which is a pity because the studio version of "Turn the Page" off of Back in '72 is really good.
• Old Shame: Seger refuses to allow most of his early material (including the '60s garage-rock singles with the Last Heard and such albums as Noah, Brand New Morning, and Back in '72) to be officially reissued on CD.
• Throw It In: The piano intro to "Old Time Rock & Roll" was only meant to be played once, but it ended up being played twice due to a missed cue.
