    A song that relates well to today's music, even though it was a slam against the disco scene back in the day. Also by the mid to late 70s there was a swelling backlash against the excesses of the many tangents that Rock had gone taken and to some extent those excesses only became worse during the 80s.

      Every generation has their music hated by people who are 20 or more years older than them. It makes no sense whether we are talking about the 1920s, 1950s, the disco-dominated mid-to-late 70s, or today. Great music is made all the time. It always was, and always will be. Don't be that guy.

      Little late on this reply but hey! I was stationed in Germany when disco had just started. I went over to the battalion, where all the men were housed (separate barracks back then), into the common room. Some new guy had just come in and came down with a disco album and put it on the stereo. Dead winter, I mean cold out. The guys picked the newbie up, took him up to the main door and tossed him out in the snow and threw his record on top of him, one being a country music fan. Then they locked him out. He wound up staying with a new guy in another battalion he shipped in with. He couldn't get back into the barracks until the next day.

      George Jackson was a songwriter for Muscle Shoals. He wrote this song and the Swampers made a demo for Bob, who often recorded in Muscle Shoals. He tried the song with his band and was not satisfied. One day at the studio a teenager and his mom and dad stopped by to visit the studio. The kid had his guitar and wanted to play. The owners were about to show him the door, but to humor him they let him play along with the demo. The owners liked it, Bob Seger liked it, so what was finally released was the original demo performed by the Swampers, and this boy. I believe his name was Howie McDonald. When the song went big, he tried to get studio work with little success. I think for many years he toured around with some musicians in an effort to parlay his "fame" from having played on a monster hit record.

      @@kenkonwick6660 "Get Out of Denver" is the second-best homage to Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business" (after Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues") that there is ... and that's a compliment, not an insult. The secret sauce Seger used is that he mixed a little "You Can't Catch Me" in with his "Too Much Monkey Business".
      One of the great things about Seger is that he's never been afraid to wear his influences on his sleeve. He even did so overtly in "Rock and Roll Never Forgets" with his line, "All Chuck's children are out there playing his licks." Of course they were, but only Seger had the cojones to own up to it in his lyrics. Neither the Beatles nor the Stones -- two bands that consisted of serious Chuck Berry acolytes, and both of which covered multiple Berry songs -- ever gave a lyrical shout-out to Chuck (even though Lennon quoted him in "Come Together").
      And that's why "Old-Time Rock and Roll" feels legit -- the lyrics to that song were practically Seger's credo.

    I couldn't rate this song because I'm numb to it. It is easily the most overplayed song in rock history. I can't imagine anyone over 40 having not heard this song at least a hundred times. Even before it was in the movie Risky Business it got played over and over and over on rock radio. The lyrics made it very popular to use for many different purposes in different media. Then after Risky Business it blew up even more. It's a great song, no doubt, and I've played songs I like over and over dozens of times, but this is the only song I've heard scores of times not by choice. I never just want to play this song because I know I will hear it again soon enough anyway. As far as more Seger to listen to, you should do Mainstreet for sure as well as Katmandu and Still the Same.

    The reason the first part of the song is so well known and used in so many movies is because of the movie Risky Business (with Tom Cruise). There’s a really, really famous scene, he dances to the whole song. After that, whenever a movie plays the song they’re referencing that specific scene.

    Yes, Seger has more good ones.

"Old Time Rock and Rock" is one of the few big Seger songs that he didn't write. Maybe Seger has nothing against disco at all, but he thought this was too good a song to pass up, so he didn't let that one line stand in his way.
