Back to the Street is the ninth release of the Christian rock band, Petra. It was released in 1986 and is the first album to be produced by John and Dino Elefante.

The album is also the first to feature new lead singer John Schlitt, former lead singer of Head East.

Keyboards are still audible on this album, as the band retained keyboardist John Lawry from the Beat the System album.
