Back Into The Future is the eighth album by the Welsh psychedelic/progressive rock band Man. It was released in September 1973.[3] It was originally issued as a double LP and was the first album recorded since the departure of Clive John. LP 1 was recorded in the studio, initially by the remaining four band members, but they felt an additional guitarist was needed, so Alan "Tweke" Lewis joined from Wild Turkey for the final studio recordings and also played on LP 2 which was recorded live at The Roundhouse.

It spent three weeks in the UK album chart, peaking at No23, their highest album chart position.[4]
