Fronted by Joe Grushecky, Iron City Houserockers’ 1980 release, Have A Good Time But...Get Out Alive, has been cited as one of the top eight essential Heartland Rock records alongside the likes of Bob Seger's Night Moves, and John Mellencamp's Scarecrow, and features many of the band’s signature tunes including, "Pumping Iron,” "Junior's Bar," and "Have A Good Time.” During a 1981 live radio concert in Boston, rabid fans can be heard screaming requests for “Pumping Iron,” an anthem Grushecky penned as a tribute to his home city.
