And Seger can sing. Plus he’s had more other major artists cover his music—Manfred Mann’s Earth Band doing Blinded By The Light does not compare withKenny Rogers and Sheena Easton doing We’ve Got Tonight or even Thin Lizzy covering Rosalie (the latter a colossal hit in Europe in the 70s) . . .

(I wonder if it irks Springsteen that the biggest album that members of the E Street Band played on was Meat Loaf’s Bat Out Of Hell?)

In is prime, Seger had one of the most amazing voices in recorded music. Seger was as big as Springsteen, if not bigger, around 1978-1981. Bob never liked the fame, and started to walk back his career by the mid-80s. Then he quit for 11 years to raise his kids. Springsteen is the creation of the big east-coast media cause they could USE Bruce as a leftist mouthpiece.
