MFSL ORIGINAL MINT LP - BOB SEGER - AGAINST THE WIND - This is a MFSL Super Virgin Vinyl (so pure that you can see through it if held up to the light) JVC Half-Speed Japanese Pressing. THIS recording is from the Victor Company of Japan for state of the art audiophile pressings.

Against the Wind is the twelfth album by American rock singer Bob Seger and his third with The Silver Bullet Band. It was released in 1980 (see 1980 in music).
