Ramblin' Gamblin' Man is the first studio album by American rock bandthe Bob Seger System, released in 1969. The original title wasTales of Lucy Blue, hence the cover art. In the liner notes, Bob Seger says (sarcastically) he later realized Lucy Blue was "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man", and so changed the title of the album. He then thanks "Doctor Fine" for this realization. (Doctor Fine being the person who made Seger change the album's name.) The original cover design for the album featured the nude figure fromBotticelli'sThe Birth of Venus, but this too was changed for the final release.[3]
The title track was also performed on Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band's live albumLive Bullet.
