Welcome to the Club is the first live album by Ian Hunter. After the unexpected success of You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic , Chrysalis Records wanted to keep the momentum by releasing another album. Because Hunter never wrote when he was on the road, it became a live album, which was recorded at the end of his U.S tour. [2] However, there were four new tracks (all of side four) three of which were recorded live in studio. [2]
All tracks written by Ian Hunter except where noted.
Side one
Side two
Side three
Side four
Recorded live at Media Sound, New York City; 10, 11 January 1980 except track 4 which was recorded at the same shows as the rest of the album.
