I look forward to picking up this 2-CD compilation and finally acquiring Seger's ridiculously elusive "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" after all these years. I know it's probably too much to ask nowadays from the major record labels, but I sure hope the track doesn't suffer from the typical modern-day "loudness wars" mastering with overly maximized audio levels and a squashed "brickwalled" dynamic range.

Well, I picked up my copy of the new Bob Seger Ultimate Hits: Rock and Roll Never Forgets compilation (Capitol 46151) at a bargain price of $6.99 at Best Buy today (normal retail price is listed at $11.99). I was pleasantly surprised to see the CDs packaged in a standard plastic jewel box and not in some cheap flimsy cardboard digipak like so many modern day CD releases. Unfortunately, I was disappointed to discover that "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" has indeed received the "loudness wars" treatment with the overly maximized levels and squashed dynamic range. It's better than not having the song on CD at all, I guess.

It figures. Thanks Todd for confirming what you predicted would be the case.
