Bob Seger has opened up about the progress on his new album. The album is titled I Knew You When and much of it serves as a tribute to Seger’s best friend, the late Eagles legend Glenn Frey. “He was my oldest friend in music. I met him in 1966, and we recorded “Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man” that year. We were just a couple of knuckleheads starting out – he was from Royal Oak [Michigan], and I was from Detroit. He was such a positive influence in my life. We’d always call each other for advice. I pushed him to do that Eagles reunion [in 1994]. He was the only one that didn’t want to do it for years. I said to him, “I think you’d have fun,” he revealed to Rolling Stone. He also explains why much of the album looks back to his high school days: “It was probably my favorite time. Up until high school, I was super shy. And then I developed a bunch of friends across town and came out of my shell. After that, it was 12 years of doing 250 to 300 shows a year in various bars, universities and gymnasiums.” Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
