Product Description

CD Description

As he'd been touring the States constantly since the late '60s, Bob Seger decided to take a well-deserved rest after the completion of dates in support of his chart-topping 1980 album, AGAINST THE WIND. On his next studio release, 1982's THE DISTANCE, Seger sounds reinvigorated, picking up his career exactly where he left off, with a mix of working class rock & roll and reflective ballads.
While THE DISTANCE is amore polished effort than his raw and rocking '70s hits, signalling Seger's future direction, it features some of his best work. Individual highlights include the rocker "Making Thunderbirds", as well as "Roll Me Away", "Shame on the Moon", and "Little Victories".

5.0 out of 5 stars classic rock, 9 Oct 2004
By A Customer
This is clearly one of the best albums to have ever been produced. The combination of soft ballads and rock and roll really gives it a good balance. With songs to suit every mood this is definately worth a listen, if not a place in your record collection!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mixed bag, 16 Nov 2007
By Comical Engineer "comicaleng" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This album is great in places but distinctly average in others. That said, the good far outweighs the bad on this classic album.

There are several brilliant tracks, my personal favourites being "Even now" (classic Seger), Shame on the Moon and particularly Roll Me Away. I feel it's a bit let down by Little Victories which feels like a filler track and Boomtown Blues which doesn't do it for me.

Actually, I'd give it 5 stars but it's a very short album for a single CD.
