Bloodshot is the fourth album by American rock band The J. Geils Band, released in 1973. It was the breakthrough release for the band, reaching #10 on the Billboard 200 album charts in the United States – a peak that the band would not surpass until their 1981 multi-platinum album Freeze Frame. The single version of "Give it to Me", which had a very different ending from the album version, reached #30 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and #15 on the Cash Box Top 100.
Original US vinyl copies of Bloodshot were issued using red vinyl instead of the customary black, and utilized matching red 1950's style Atlantic Records labels. The band would continue to use these vintage-style Atlantic labels, in different colors with each album release, throughout their remaining tenure with the label.
All songs written by Seth Justman and Peter Wolf, except where noted.
