...recreations are modest enough: a lakefront cabin, a 36-ft. Chris-Craft and a Honda cycle, "a great bike, with a windshield, cigarette lighter and a cruise control."

"I'd like to be more like B.B. King, become more sophisticat ed," Seger muses. "Maybe I'll just make records after a while, write songs or produce. After all, I don't know how much longer...
