While he was away, his Eminem, the White Stripes, and most significantly in Seger's case, Kid Rock, who was often seen and it soon became known that he was working on a new album, which turned out to be Face the Pon this project steadily since about 2000; while most date from 2005 and 2006, a few are as oldger's most carefully considered record in quite some time, from its overarching themes -- largeas a total surprise that Face the Promise feels like his most complete record since 1982's The berate, slick anthems of Like a Rock or the overly considered feel of The Fire Inside or the po is not a Silver Bullet Band album -- this is the first Seger album to be credited as a solo efrgely forgotten Brand New Morning than his previous few records. That doesn't mean that this isng his age, which doesn't happen all that often. And that's why Face the Promise was largely rer Vince Gill's "Real Mean Bottle," the only cut that sounds crafted with the radio in mind, butccable chops, which is ideal for Seger. Ironically, given that this was made with hired hands, tion, although Seger was savvy enough to pick the right musicians and atmosphere for both -- itrecharged by his hiatus -- or more specifically, the time he's spent with his family, living an entirely appropriate spokesman for everyday middle Americans.

I also added some comments from the man hartists, his music has been incredibly inspirational to me, and I'm of the age that I go back thard rock, mid-tempo numbers, and ballads since Stranger in Town, though nothing at the level o charts, however this album destroys that idea starting with Wreck This Heart and three other rof view narrowly drawn to a specific age group and this shows that while he's 61, the pressures as he provides insight to their experiences from a position of having just lived it with the pery inspirational, a very Bob-like ballad. Seger's voice soars into the bridge like it did with, his voice is even better in the mid and low notes with a little more gravel adding more levit comments - I don't think anybody got it. In my mind you've got to have the discipline to allown Thunderbirds". Good filler. Makes you think he's hangin' with the post-college crowd now thoun kids looking at the big American dream. "I'm gonna to out and face the promise of the promisein terms of providing strength by realization that we all have challenges. \n\nSeger's Comments classic Seger lyrics. Memorable line, "This is a whole new faith almost like a new religion". Time", an old band associated with Prince. Lyrics are obvious and contrived. Filler. \n\n7 - "political position, I would have preferred he chose different lyrics for this song, they sound to Merle Haggard (Kid's a big fan of Haggard). Lots of long notes that take advantage of Gill'sittle underwhelmed with this song, Bob's covers are usually excellent choices like Rodney Crowef this was a minor hit on the Country charts. \n\nSeger's producer on "Real Mean Bottle" - He (rse song, acoustic guitar, Bob, and a little drum. A counter to "Real Mean Bottle" preaching thkened from the pinnacle of his singing on "Live Bullet" and "Stranger in Town". Still, Bob was niversal personal, making music that is either a joy to listen or sustenance for trying times. t condone this. \n\n10 - "Between" - Contains the best lead guitar on the album by Kenny Greenbove the way I sang it, I love the way I played it, I love the way the girls sang it. And it saye song. However there are some incredibly poor choices in which notes to hit that had me physico release a single version that eradicates the cringe factor. \n\nSeger's Comments - "I thought "The Long Goodbye" - Should have been placed between two rockers because as the last song, it es that linger after the song ends, "The long goodbye continues on, through fog and rain and fawith that with my aunt after my mother died. And now, my wife is dealing with it her father. Soger is not prolific, his fans have much higher expectations than those of say, Tom Petty or Bru too young to have grown up with Seger, I recommend buying the following songs which you can fie DVD includes the video for "Like A Rock". I don't know of any song where the singing and lead doing two songs in San Diego, which really displays how great a performer he is, though his bay not at least that song's video? I did appreciate the short interviews they did with Seger shoW\nAn older more introspective Bob Seger...., October 20, 2006\nReviewer: J. Estadt "jestadt" (e used to hearing from him it does tend to grow on you when you accept it on it's own merits ins something to do with that. People that want a Bob Seger album like 'Stranger In Town', 'Nightually listened to it without the prejudice of comparing it to his other albums and found a lot stripped down sound which makes it seem like more of an intimate conversation with someone inskeeps much of his singing in a range where he doesnt have to stretch out vocally too much. \n\neasant song that reminds me of 'Against the Wind' musically. The title track 'Face The Promise'y the closest thing we get to a vintage Bob Seger rocker. 'No Matter Who You Are' is similar in Iraq, but musically its an uplifting almost gospel sounding song at times. \n\nIs it the Bob Sike 'Against the Wind', 'Fire Lake', etc..in their sound. While this collection is different fran sound instead of a lot of studio tinkering that we get with a lot of acts today. The result it on its own merits and you might enjoy it as well.\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nPainful....the live album put him on the radio. But this CD hurts to listen to. His voice is clearly straislowly, painfully die off to some off pitch, strained country crooner type of ballads. The elecnk there is maybe three keepers on this one for me. The rest I can't even listen to, even as loPromise, and Makes Good, September 21, 2006\nReviewer: Thomas D. Ryan "American Hit Network" (Nocked decades off of my time-clock. Maybe it's because I wasn't paying close attention, but it ng for his next release, then that would explain why you are blue. And dead. It's been ten yearBob Seger has certainly warped my perception of time. \nWhile listening to "Face the Promise," n to the female backup singers; I don't know if they are the same girls, but they sound virtualurprising to hear how well they stand up to the work of more 'contemporary' artists. Hearing th if it is, then why hasn't someone else taken the reins? To put it bluntly, nobody else can do it. "Wait for Me" bears a melodic resemblance to "Against the Wind," but with a better chorus.y few artists left who seem willing to carry the 'classic rock' mantle. The Eagles threaten butg continues to follow his muse wherever it leads him, but it is usually not down the 'classic rmusic, rockin' down the highway while livin' life in the fast lane has turned into a quiet stroe disk that should have followed "Against the Wind" in 1981. Classic rock can only exist if som hand. B+ Tom Ryan \n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nYou probably will never play it more than on. You would think by this time he would have composed some songs worthy of rememberence but thelf examination and reflection and longing and the eagerness to move ahead and the decay of soci probably will buy it too if your a fan like me. But if I were new to Seger I Would try: AgainsR REVIEW\nSeger is Back, September 13, 2006\nReviewer: David O (Westerville, Ohio United StatesThe Distance." The album is heavy on rockers, including the Rolling Stones-sounding "Wreck thisave that classic Seger sound. Other songs, however, have a modern feel to them, including "Betw"Simplicity" is very funky complete with a full horn section that adds to the fun. "Won't Stop"res vocals with country singer Patty Loveless. The weakest song on the album is "No More" whichFace the Promise," Seger has produced an album that captures his classic sound on some tracks wlbum since 1995.\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\n3.5 stars - Just an OK album..., September 12, n what is on commercial rock radio today? Definitely. It is just not up to par at all with Bob'ies were memorable. The approach to songwriting on Promise is primarily just couplets sung overmy Awards, my "Record of the Year" Real Mean Bottle -- but for the most part nothing here stand and not feeling the pressure to "fill" it to 65 or 70 minutes like some other aging roots rockdiocre songs, for some reason he wrote songs he no longer has the range to sing. \n\nFinally thear them on the first seven songs?! As for the guitars, JT Cornelius definitely rocks the houselver Bullet Band. Let me just say, I think the drums sound terrible on this CD..... \n\nAnyway, out there right now. However on the Bob Seger scale, this has to be down in the cellar with Thty Loveless \nProducer: Bob Seger \n\nAlbum Notes\nPersonnel include: Bob Seger (vocals, variou Nashville, Tennessee.\n\nOf all the heartland-based "working class rockers" of the 1970s and 'gwriter, giving equal emphasis to rebellious electric barnstormers and melancholic, thoughtful mer had diminished.\nSeger's gruff voice sounds as weathered and gutsy as ever, and his status rove.
