Night Moves is an album by American rock band Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band, released in 1976 (see 1976 in music). Propelled by the title song, which became a Top 10 hit single, the album finally produced Seger's nationwide commercial breakthrough, after years of regional success around Detroit.
