About this album

Back Home Live captures Max Merritt And The Meteors at their most direct and hard-working, blending rock, soul and funk with the energy of a seasoned live band. Issued in 1977, it reflects the group’s strength as a touring act and the appeal of Max Merritt’s gritty vocal delivery, which gave their material a punchier edge than many of their contemporaries. The set includes “Slipping Away”, the song most closely associated with Merritt and one of his best-known recordings, alongside versions that underline the band’s feel for American rhythm and blues. It stands as a vivid document of a trans-Tasman favourite in full performance mode.
