I had this album as a cassette for years and played it in my old car all the time. Got a new car last year and Oh,no! couldn't play the cassette. Ordered the CD, it came almost immediately, and even better - was in perfect condition. Not a single scratch or flaw. Am well on the way to wearing it out, too! When I do, I would go right back to this seller for future purchases. Excellent seller to deal with!

I only moved to CA USA 5 years ago from the UK and I dont remember hearing much of Bob Seger in the UK at all and am so dissapointed I did not find his music quicker but thanks to our local Rock radio Station 104.3 The Hippo i have made up for lost time a wonderful album

This is a nice album from Bob Seger, I bought it mostly for the Horizontal Bop, a nicely crafted song and a great bit of rock and roll. The rest of the album is well done too. Bob and the boys are in fine form. Worth buying for any Seger fan.

If you had to choose a single voice of blue-collar American rock & roll, you might well settle on Bob Seger's as that iconic sound. AGAINST THE WIND could be Exhibit A as you face down the Springsteens and the Pettys and the Mellencamps make your case.
There are several tracks on this album in which Seger hits his stride and holds it long enough to sound as though he'd have to be invented if he were not available to sing in just this way. 'You'll Accomp'ny Me' is the first of them.
Along with the album's eponymous 'Against the Wind', 'Accomp'ny' is arguably Seger's most well-known tune, but it is not the only one that establishes a subset of his styles as the one that he's come to be known by. 'No Man's Land' is its twin.
Seger fans slot intuitively into a certain, ineffable Seger-esque groove when the SBB gets into its balladic rhythm, setting the table and the stage for Seger to do his best, abbreviated, enigmatic story-telling. Just listen to the Silver Bullet amble up to speed on 'No Man's Land' and you'll know what I mean. Like the best poetry, which tells us enough of its story to allow us to catch hold to one of its horns and merge our own tale with the poet's words, Seger is at his best when he talks to us about the tip of the iceberg. We fill in the rest.
Don't get me wrong. Seger also rocks in formulaic in-your-face mode as well and his music is beloved by fans of that style ('The Horizontal Bop', 'Her Strut'; Long ... Read More
