Lemmy recalls making this during the 'Snake Bite Love' tour, having decided to include an entire show on the release, which they hadn't done before because of the limitations of vinyl. Lemmy says he chose to record it in Germany because;
"The Germans have been such loyal fans of ours. They always rescued our ass when we were going down for the third time. They stuck with us, and we knew Hamburg would be a great audience. It's like Liverpool — a seafaring town, and you know where you are with a sailor!".
At the start of the concert Lemmy announces, "We are Motörhead; and we’re gonna kick your ass". Commenters picked this theme up, with some advocating that those thinking of buying a first record will be disappointed with studio versions of the songs, after listening to the show.
