His early records are worth exploring, about the time he was hanging with the MC5. Great garage rock.

Ultimate dadrock. Seriously, you don't even know dadrock until you've been forced to sit in a car with your parents as your dad tunes in "Old Time Rock and Roll" on the local CRR station.
Early Bob Seger is cool

Even back in the 70s, he wasn't really appealing to kids so much as 30-somethings who wanted to have a nostalgia wank over the 50s.

Yeah, there is one called "Vagrant Winter", that's not on youtube, but on the early singles compilation, that one is goat
>Sometime in the early 70s I saw Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band in Denver, Colorado. It was badass. Seger laid on some Detroit rock that was as primal and intense as The MC5 or The Stooges - no frills, in your face and loud. Sadly, Seger faded over time into someone who rarely connected with me again. There were a few tunes but overall what had once been stripped-down and ferocious rock and roll became adult-contemporary bloat—songs about rock and roll that weren’t particularly rock and roll. Seger distanced himself from his earlier, punkier work and focused on anthems for the beer cozy crowd.

So, basically Eric Clapton 2.0.

Good comparison.
>Clapton claims he's now retiring
But Eric, man, you retired in 1975. It just took you this long to make it official.
