Originally a hard-driving rocker in the vein of fellow Michigan garage rockers
the Rationals and Mitch Ryder, Bob Seger developed into one of the most popular
heartland rockers over the course of the '70s. Combining the driving charge of
Ryder's Detroit Wheels with Stonesy garage rock and devotion
to hard-edged soul and R&B, he crafted a distinctively American sound

Bob Seger's Mongrel may have been a terrific album, but nobody heard it,
just like its predecessor. So Capitol was ready to drop him and wanted a contract-fulfilling
album as soon as possible. Seger delivered the low-key, introspective Brand New Morning
to get out of the deal. Later he claimed that the album was a collection of demos released
somewhat against his will, but listening to the record it's hard to believe that these
intimate yet fully realized songs were bare-bone work versions.
Furthermore, it's hard to see these as just a collection of tossed-off tunes,
since they're well-rounded and uniformly engaging, not throwaways.
Brand New Morning is a fine album on its own terms. Yes, none of the songs
resonate as deeply as the best ballads on his other records, and there are times
where it feels like he's very conscious of proving himself as a writer,
but in light of his later work, that's quite charming.
That's what makes the album something more than a curiosity
and into something quietly pivotal in Seger's catalog.
There are no classics here (though the title track, "Maybe Today," "Sometimes,"
and "Railroad Days" are all very good), but the charm of the record
is hearing Seger consciously working on his craft...(AllMusic)
