Founded in 1968 by Ray Sawyer and Dennis Locorriere, Dr Hook and the Medicine Show quickly gained a reputation as one of the craziest bands in the world on the back of their cheerfully drunken performances in the trucker bars of the Southern States. The band bridged the gap from country music to rock and pop, and although their live shows had their share of comedy and the band were renowned for their raunchy sense of humour, they were also noted for their first class musicianship and vocals. This film features a live performance at the Musikladen Studios in Germany.

Directed by Lee Tucker (who also directed the band's videos for "Wagon Wheel" and "Tell It To Me"), Live at the Orange Peel and Tennessee Theatre was recorded over two nights last December and features performances of 20 songs-15 of which are from the band's three studio albums (OCMS, Big Iron World, Tennessee Pusher) - including "Tell It To Me," "Down Home Girl," "Alabama High-Test," and "Wagon Wheel." The video also includes five tracks from their live repertoire not found on their three studio albums: "Wheeling Breakdown," "Raise A Ruckus," "Reuben's Train," "Sally Anne" and "Shack #9."
