    Strong voice, strong record. The past 20 years didn't had any effect on his music - a good thing-.

    Seger is Seger doing what got him into the R&R hall of fame. I did not want to hear something different I wanted to hear vintage Seger and that is what this record is!!!

    Seger's back and just as fantastic as always. If you buy no other piece of music this year, buy this one! He's still top of his game.

    He's still got it.....his first few tracks are excellent then it tapers off. His duet with Kid Rock should get some airplay along with his title release. A must have for your collection and worth purchasing at Walmart for a killer price.....I wish all cds were that low!!!!

    A varied selection that is a story among stories if you look a little more in depth than those who judged each song individually. It is the saga of any person going home again, their values and wondering how they will be remembered. I loved it.

    I am an old Seger fan. The album starts off great with classic Seger michigan rock n roll, it soon slows down to a much more reflective and contemplative set of tunes that seem to be testimonials to a hard life and the struggles that come with life under a spotlight. In the end he seems tired, but none the less this IS Bob at his finest, just eleven years later.

  1. It often feels sluggish despite itself, and his lyrics show him riding against the same old Michigan wind with a voice that's grown haggard and curmudgeonly with time.
  2. Thoroughly enjoyable.

    This is satisfying meat-and-potatoes rock. [15 Sep 2006, p.77]
