Contents

Recording

The album was recorded during their ongoing tour in support of their twenty-first studio album, Battering Ram, and was compiled from live shows performed at three different locations, which are:

Motörhead performed at the Zenith on the same days as Saxon - their sets were also recorded and were released as a live album and video called Clean Your Clock in June 2016.

Included are thirteen songs from Munich, three from Hove and eighteen from St. Charles, although the last song of the St. Charles performance (20,000 Ft) isn't included, [3] possibly due to space limitations.
