 It was a top five hit, and included several live favourites that would be frequently featured in concert.The album was the first one the group recorded after they had switched labels from Pye to Vertigo Records.When recording for Pye, the studio staff had complained about the volume as it would overload the input levels on the recording desk and distort, but for "Piledriver", they could bring their touring gear into IBC Studios and record live at stage levels, giving them a much stronger sound.
