Recorded live at Detroit's grande ballroom across 2 nights on October 30 and 31, 1968. The album is best remembered for its notorious title track with its unforgettably controversial introductory exhortation to “Kick out the jams, motherfu__ers!" The band used the expression "Kick out the jams" to harass other bands. If they felt the bands were losers, they would stand by the edge of the stage and yell "kick out the jams" or "Get off the stage".

Elektra asked the band to put out a clean version, but the band refused. Hudson's department store refused to carry the album and threatened Elektra with a complete boycott of Elektra products. The band ran a full page ad in a local underground paper that simply read "F__k Hudson's" and included, without permission, the Elektra logo. Detroit police raided MC5 shows and record stores were cited for selling the album. The record was released  in January of 1969. On April 16, 1969 Elektra dropped the band, recalled all the albums still in stores and replaced them with clean versions.

The album is listed at #294 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time.  It's also listed as #65 in VH1's 100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs.
