Bob Seger - Back In 72 (1973) [Complete Vinyl LP]

One Of Our Deleted Albums Series

Bob Seger released three albums between 1972-1974 which are relatively unknown and hard to find, which is surprising given Bob Seger's very successful career later in the 1970's. Back In 72 is one of those three albums. The other two are Seven and Smokin' O.P.'s, which I have also uploaded to this channel..

Back In 72 was originally released in 1973 on Reprise Records, catalogue number MS 2126, and, although it had some modest commercial success, it was/is nowhere near as well known as Bob Seger's post 1974 albums with the Silver Bullet Band.

Despite Bob Seger's very successful career with the Silver Bullet Band after 1974, Back In 72 remained a relatively unknown album and became increasingly difficult to find.

It was deleted from the Reprise Records catalogue by the 1980's and was later re-released on CD by Capitol Records in 1993 before being deleted again a few years later.

This audio was taken from a 1973-74 Canadian pressing of the original Reprise Records vinyl LP which I bought after I first heard this album in 1974.

As far as I am aware, Back In 72 is currently unavailable on CD or vinyl except as second hand copies of the original 1970's LP's and the 1990's re-issued CD's. https://www.amazon.com/Back-72-bob-se...​
