His version is the original. He co-wrote it, but never received credit for it. He later said he regretted never get his name on the credit.

Old Time Rock and Roll

"Old Time Rock and Roll" is a song by Bob Seger featured in the 1978 album "Stranger in Town". It is a nostalgic look at the music of a previous generation. The opening bars are strongly reminiscent of the beginning riff of Phil Ochs' 1965 antiwar folk anthem, "I Ain't Marching Anymore".
The song was chosen by RIAA as one of the Songs of the Century. It was made famous when it was used in the film Risky Business. It also features in ALF, The Nanny, and the South Park episode The Wacky Molestation Adventure, in a similar sequence to Risky Business, except with the inclusion of parents being taken away who were accused of molesting their children.

I think he wrote it and was the only one to record it.
