It was Seger's

"The Silver Bullet Band",
much of the album
used guest

On release,
The Fire Inside
received a
mixed critical reception,
but was still a commercial success
peaking at number 7
on the
US Billboard
album chart,
and achieved
Platinum status
from the RIAA.
Critical Reception
Reviewing for AllMusic,
critic
Bret Adams
wrote of the album
"Overall,
the 12-track album
is a disappointing
piecemeal effort
with five different
production credits,
and Seger uses two
Tom Waits
covers
and one
other outside
song to pad it."
