It's said there are only a few copies of a record called "The Lonely One" still in existence. It was written and recorded by Bob Seger when he was just 17, and a member of an obscure group called The Decibels. It's from 1961, was reportedly played just once on an Ann Arbor, Michigan radio station and then disappeared into obscurity.
But it's about to make a surprising comeback. A Detroit radio station has located a rare copy and vows to play it for the first time in 60 years on Monday.
First Bob Seger song ever recorded to play on WCSX Monday
But you don't have to wait till then to hear a version of it. In 1981, Seger performed a brief version of the tune during an interview, which you can hear below. A true piece of Motor City Music history.

I love Seger's voice. Nice song, too. The trivia about Night Moves is a light bulb moment. I love tidbits like this.

The article above provides a link to the radio station if anyone is up and remembers to tune in Monday morning.
