105.7 KOKZ is your home for classic American Top 40 shows every weekend. Sunday morning at 8, Casey Kasem features the top songs from October 24th, 1981, it’s where I found today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band with “Tryin’ To Live My Life Without You”.

The song was originally recorded by soul singer Otis Clay in early 1973 and has been covered by several artists, the biggest version is by Detroit legend Bob Seger. The song appears on their 1981 live album “Nine Tonight” which was recorded in Detroit and Boston. “Tryin’ To Live My Life Without You” was released as a single and went to #5 on the charts.

One of the all-time great bands, check out a live performance of today’s Forgotten 45 from Nova Scotia in 2014 from Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band!
