Ramblin' Gamblin' Man: Third Man Issues Rare Bob Seger Tracks for Record Store Day
A fantastic feature on NPR recently set classic rock fans' hearts aflutter with a serious deep dive on Bob Seger, whose catalogue is famously absent from much of the digital music space. His classic albums were belatedly issued on iTunes several years ago, don't exist on streaming services, and are even disappearing from record stores (other than, perhaps, 1994's Greatest Hits album, the best-selling catalogue title of the 2000s, or the more recent Ultimate Hits: Rock and Roll Never
