Pumping Iron & Sweating Steel: The Best of the Iron City Houserockers is a compilation album by the Iron City Houserockers. Released in 1992 under Rhino Records, it was at that time the only Iron City Houserockers material available on compact disc (Love's So Tough and Have a Good Time but Get out Alive! would not be reissued on CD for another seven years after this compilation appeared). The disc covers all four of the Iron City Houserockers albums from the late seventies and early eighties and places them in chronological order with a few extra tracks thrown in to make it a worthy buy for collectors. Tracks 1–5 were taken from Love's So Tough, with "School Days", a Chuck Berry cover, being an unreleased outtake from that album. Tracks 6–11 were taken from Have a Good Time but Get out Alive!, but with the single edit version of "Junior's Bar". Tracks 12–15 were taken from Blood on the Bricks, tracks 16–17 from Cracking Under Pressure and "Goodbye Steeltown", a Joe Grushecky single released in August 1984 (after the band had broken up), was included as the final song. The songs were remastered for compact disc by Bill Inglot.
