This is a fine original U.S. pressing copy of the debut LP by Detroit group the Bob Seger System, released in 1968.  Seger's group was previously known as the Last Heard, who released several singles on the Cameo label.  On their major label debut, the newly christened combo scored a top 20 hit with the title track.  Their music was broadly of a piece with that of Detroit contemporaries like the the MC5 and the Frost, though it was less radical than the former and more upbeat than the latter.  Seger, of course, went on to great commercial success in the late '70s and early '80s with the Silver Bullet Band (having grown up then, I can attest that his singles were all over the radio).  The jacket has light ring, corner, spine, seam, and edge wear; light rippling in one corner on the back cover; a little rippling in the front cover slick (presumably from a sticker); and the initials of a former owner written in pen on the back cover (EX-).  The disc has some light scuffing, and plays with light surface noise (EX-).

I’m in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their jackets. The jackets have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.

If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
