Notes
Recorded at Cobo Hall in Detroit, in September 1975, the original album Live Bullet brought Seger significant national attention. The recognition Seger had garnered to that point was based on two elements: the emotional power of his songs and the intensity of his live shows. Combining those two elements on Live Bullet, the album was released as a double-vinyl-record set in April 1976 and captured Seger’s riveting performances of “Travelin’ Man,” “Beautiful Loser,” “Heavy Music,” “Katmandu,” “Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man,” “Turn the Page” and others. The album started breaking across the country and set the stage for Seger’s meteoric rise.
Hailed by critics as one of the best live records of all time, including the June 1976 review from The New York Times, “This music roars on and on until at the very end of the performance, Seger — still raring to go-bellows: ‘I’m going to rock and roll all night long.’ He means it and Live Bullet is proof positive that he’s a living dynamo.”
