Production
The poker hand shown on the cover of the album is not a full house... three of a kind and two of a kind makes a full house. There are three Jacks, a King and a Queen on the cover. It can be interpreted as a packed venue- i.e. "we've got a full house here tonight for the show" Look closer, the queen is winking, get it?
This was the first of three live albums recorded by the J. Geils Band. The others were Blow Your Face Out in 1976 and Showtime! in 1982.
Although living in Boston, the band had always considered Detroit their second home because of their enormous popularity there. Two of their three live albums were recorded in Detroit at various venues. The third live album was recorded in Detroit and Boston.
