Music reviews of Back in '72
Music Review: Lost Classic
Rating: 4 Stars
Back in 72' is one of three albums made by Bob Seger under the Palladium record label (founded by his manager Punch Andrews) after fulfilling his original contract with Capitol records in the early 1970's. Back in 72' is the only one of those three albums that have never been reissued , which makes Back In 72' a rare album available only as a CD-R or used LP.
Back In 72' was the source of two songs that made it to the Live Bullet album. "Turn the Page", which has become a rock anthem and staple of Bob,s live performances and "I've Been Working" credited to Van Morrison survive via Live Bullet.
There are other fine tracks on Back In 72' including "Rosalie", a song about a Detroit DJ that garnered more success for Thin Lizzy than Bob Seger and "Neon Sky" a reflective ballad about painful choices between one's family and career. Neon Sky resonates with Seger's bittersweet hope that the effort will be worth it as he and his loved one "walk into the sun". "Neon Sky" and "Someday" off of "Smokin' O.P.'s" echo Bob Seger's frustrations with the lack of success (at the time) of his music.
Wile the album lacks production values of his later works it is filled with fine songs written mostly by Bob Seger (I've Been Working and Stealer are the only exceptions) and song with heartfelt sincerity. Whether as a used LP or CD-R copy it is a worthwile addition for the Seger fan.
