Amazon requires that when you rate a product that you enter atleast one star. The true rating is of this CD is minus (-) *****stars.

Anyone who is looking for Bob Seger needs to look elsewhere! The CD is simply "The Bob Seger System" remixed to make it sound more up to date.

It also lacks one other key element;BOB SEGER. If this is actually Seger on the CD, then someone does not how to produce an album because his voice is pushed to the background by the music and the "background vocals".

The mix tells me that Seger's voice is not on the CD, rather a poor substitute.

They overdubbed his incredible debut album with all sorts of guitars & other trash that shouldn't be there. If you are a true Bob Seger fan you should get this album right away so that you can be as enraged as I am. This sort of thing shouldn't happen. We should all write to Capitol Records & plead with them to re-release his debut album in it's entirety, unscathed. So that we as fans don't have to resort to buying this filth.

This CD has the Bob Seger System album "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" with a lot of overdubs, which makes this CD sound horrible. Whoever was responsible for this should cease and desist with this CD. I have listened to this, and was left very disappointed. The overdubs nearly drown out Bob Seger's voice, and make this CD sound hideous. Anyone who is a true fan of Bob Seger will overlook this CD in favor of the original classic Capitol LP "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man".

This CD is NOT by Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. In reality, this is an album by the Bob Seger System, remixed and overdubbed. The result: A MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT! In fact, the sound quality of this CD is HIDEOUS! Bob's vocals are pushed so far into the background that you can barely hear them. My suggestion is to avoid this CD and search out the Bob Seger System's "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" album, which has all the same songs, albeit in better sound quality and as nature intended. I wish I could give "Train Man" 0 stars, because that's exactly what it deserves.

Overdubbed so much it hurts your ears. It would be better if fans was given the chance to get the original albums rereleased on cd, instead of this respectless crab. I wonder if Mr. Seger himself heard this. Do not buy this album.

This is a cd by Bob Seger, whoever did the overdubs and why is not known, Seger's voice is there, but the overdubs mess it up, the one good thing about it is that it is not a bootleg cd and actually the same cd as his Ramblin' Gamblin' Man disc, which sells for a lot higher, for Seger fans, the quality may be dissapointing, but as a collector, its a nice piece to have. I can only assume that this overdubbing was did to improve the disc, but actually ruined it. This is a disc mainly for those who want every Seger item out there, but if you want a better sounding cd, the original Ramblin' Gamblin' Man is always available or sometimes there is the album and cd for one price also on Amazon. What it boils down to is what a person wants, if another piece added to the collection is needed, this is one of the rare cds to get, it was worth it to me, to have and listen to myself and i do not find it horrible or deserving zero stars and i do have every Seger item available out there!
