“Turn The Page (Live Bullet)” by Bob Seger

Bob Seger wrote "Turn the Page" in 1972 while he was on the road with Teegarden & Van Winkle, and first cut it for his 1973 album Back in '72, produced with Punch Andrews for Capitol. It's about what touring does to a rock musician, the highs and the grinding lows, and the road behind it was real: drummer David Teegarden remembered an all-night drive from the Detroit area through a blinding snowstorm toward a gig in the Dakotas, pulling into a truck stop around 3 in the morning, three of them with their long hair stuffed up under their hats.

This is the take from the 1976 live album Live Bullet, and it was this version, not the original, that finally became a single, in Germany and the UK. The song became a fixture on album-rock radio and still gets plenty of play on classic rock stations.
