Back into the Future is the seventh album by the Welsh rock band Man. Released in September 1973,[2] it was the first Man album recorded following the departure of Clive John. Back into the Future was originally issued as a double LP. LP 1 was recorded at Rockfield Studios, Chipping Norton Recording Studios, and Olympic Studios in London between May and July 1973, initially by the remaining four band members, but they felt an additional guitarist was needed, so Wild Turkey guitarist Alan "Tweke" Lewis joined for the final studio recordings. Lewis also played on LP 2, which was recorded live by Pye Mobile at The Roundhouse in London on 24 June 1973.
The album spent three weeks in the UK album chart, peaking at No 23, the highest album chart position of any Man album.[3]
