Twelve songs appear, seven of them covers, including "Grooving With Jesus" originally released by The Violinaires; Ann Peebles song "I Can't Stand the Rain" once referred to by John Lennon as the perfect single; "Anna (Go to Him)" originally written and performed by Arthur Alexander and recorded by The Beatles on their first album; and "Oh La-De-Da" by The Staple Singers.[2]
The word Thunderbox is a seventeenth century slang word for the toilet,[3] which gives an example of Humble Pie's sense of humour.[4] The cover shows a keyhole through which a woman can be seen sitting on a toilet.
