Thanks a million, MVB. This stuff cooks.

Yeah, I've been loving this stuff ... is everything converted to mp3 now? I could never get those few wav files to play or convert ...
― tylerw, Saturday, 13 March 2010 17:01 (fourteen years ago) link
All of them were mp3.

why isn't this available on slsk?

myonga rules!!!
"persecution smith" is a ridiculous dylan ripoff, sure, but it's got this bubblegummy chorus that suggests he had a monkees LP on the changer, too. maybe even some archies. it's brilliant.
still absorbing the rest.
― fact checking cuz, Wednesday, 17 March 2010 14:51 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah, it's pretty great. Also: DO YOU SEE how easily the lyrics can be repurposed for laughs to be about 2010 and cr*zy t**b*gg*rs.
Has anyone detected the bowling alley sounds said to be on the early tracks? I can't, but I'm kinda deaf.
― M.V., Wednesday, 17 March 2010 15:58 (fourteen years ago) link
(I think I mentioned this in another Seger thread but) real early on, he played the cafeteria at my dad's high school, and when someone asked him (pointedly, perhaps) to play some Dylan, his response was something like "I don't play Bob Dylan. I play Bob Seger."

hey folks, I sent in the CDDB info for Myonga's CDR, so if you have the CDR version you should get the track titles now! One more step in "legitimizing" this, still hoping for P&J votes.
― sleeve, Saturday, 27 March 2010 19:52 (fourteen years ago) link
Thanks, sleeve! (Too bad that the first few I sent have a slightly different sequence...)

whoops! tell me what it is now and I will reconfigure, I need to burn a copy for a friend anyway so I'll do it with the correct order and reup it. I have a hunch it has to do with the placement of "Sock It To Me Santa"...

Nearly a third of the way into the year, it's still on track to get 30 of mine.
― xhuxk, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 00:52 (thirteen years ago) link
The cdr MVB circulated utterly kills, not a bad track on it. Quite a shock for someone like me who assiciates this guy with "Like A Rock" etc. Frigging awesome!
― Bill Magill, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 15:43 (thirteen years ago) link
is there still a dl link for the latest version of this avaliable? I got the earlier version, but that was the one with .wav files ... either way, it is awesome.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 15:44 (thirteen years ago) link
Mine was just the first download, not the CDR. Anyway, it kills.
― I Smell Xasthur Williams (Jon Lewis), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 15:46 (thirteen years ago) link
tyler I converted the wmv tracks to mp3 and that's what I'm listening to. If nothing else I could up that.
― I Smell Xasthur Williams (Jon Lewis), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 15:47 (thirteen years ago) link
not an emergency, but if you've got the time, that'd be awesome, Jon.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 15:53 (thirteen years ago) link
hey i never got the email with the link to the CD/mp3s!
― by another name (amateurist), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 19:18 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, no bout adoubt it. Along with the Runaways soundtrack, it's the best hard rock 'record' I've listened to this year. If Seger had any sense he'd pay MVB a fee for artistic consulting, give him a piece per unit sold and put it in stores. Rhino Handmade couldn't have done a better job. That's assuming Seger owns all the rights now.
― Gorge, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 20:43 (thirteen years ago) link
Joining the chorus for Myonga's Bob Seger comp. Might get my P&J #1 as well!
― talrose, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 21:45 (thirteen years ago) link
damn people, give me a link!
― by another name (amateurist), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 21:53 (thirteen years ago) link
Damn, I was SURE I'd sent you one months ago! When i get home I'll try again. (Or for the first time, as the case may be...)

that would be (for my money, since it's a match for the orig Animals w/Eric Burdon's very greatest singles)EAST SIDE STORY by Bob Seger and the Last Heard

Chuck, this isn't the first time you've blown my mind. Crazy, but I've never heard any early Seger like that before...wow. Awesome. Thank you!!

Cheers - got Ramblin' Gamblin' Man on vinyl last month and it's in heavy rotation at the moment.
Those early tracks on your comp are pretty damn good
― Deluxe Merseybeat Wig (Jack Battery-Pack), Saturday, 16 October 2010 12:38 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, great stuff on this comp. What is the preferred tracklisting? I just put it in chron order, wasn't sure (rough b/c I didn't want to put "Ballad of the Yellow Beret" first even though I think that is the earliest single). Next time around I'd be happy to u/l this, I've fully tagged it with release years, individual bands, etc. Thanks a lot for making it.
― Mark, Saturday, 16 October 2010 19:33 (thirteen years ago) link
Thanks for the link! It's funny to think that these songs would be so surprising to people, but I guess if you didn't grow up in the Detroit area (where many of these were as ubiquitous on local radio as anything by, say, Foghat or Boston) then there's a good chance you haven't heard them yet.
― henry s, Sunday, 17 October 2010 17:12 (thirteen years ago) link
i think i've found the perfect cover photograph for this (awesome) comp. stay tuned as i get my scanner working.
― tylerw, Sunday, 17 October 2010 17:34 (thirteen years ago) link
i am still tuned tylerw

oh right! will get that together. it's kind of an amazing photo.
― tylerw, Wednesday, 20 October 2010 18:32 (thirteen years ago) link
Tyler- where's my cover photo?
And secondly, putting together my best of '10 list and this is one of the reissues. MVB Records the "official" label or are we crediting it differently?
― EZ Snappin, Saturday, 4 December 2010 16:08 (thirteen years ago) link
Here's how I'm listing it when I give it 30 Pazz & Jop points (hope I'm not alone in that), though I'm open to other suggestions:
Bob Seger – Never Mind the Bullets Here's Early Bob Seger (Myonga CD-R)
