As the debut release under the Bob Seger System moniker, “2+2=?” is a landmark moment in the evolution and career of Bob Seger. The January 1968 release of 2+2=?“, Seger’s first single on Capitol Records, is an emotional, spirited anti-war protest delivered at the height of escalating tensions in Vietnam. Stylistically, the hypnotic, repetitive bass line is accented by a stinging fuzz guitar accompaniment, all paired with Seger’s signature vocal rasp.
Remastered directly from the analog tapes by Robert Vosgien and cut by Ron McMaster at Capitol Mastering.
Backed with the classic track “Ivory," this 7-inch single features artwork originally used on European picture sleeves for both songs.
