Bob Seger’s songs conjure up memories of watching my dad tinker around in the garage, while he listened to Bob’s Greatest Hits CD.

The song “Turn The Page” has been my favorite Seger song ever since I really sat and listened to it, while watching my Dad replace the brakes on one of the family cars.

I have a love-hate relationship with Metallica but in spite of that, most of the time, their music kicks ass. They have a lot of truly great songs but one of my all-time favorites of theirs is actually a cover they did of Bob Seger’s “Turn The Page”.

What about you? Do you prefer the Bob Seger original or Metallica’s version?
