Background
Australian rock band, Hunters & Collectors, issued Under One Roof on 11 November 1998, after they had disbanded earlier that year. The line-up of the group was John Archer on bass guitar and backing vocals; Doug Falconer on drums, percussion, programming and backing vocals; Jack Howard on trumpet, keyboards and backing vocals; Barry Palmer on lead guitar; Mark Seymour on lead vocals; Jeremy Smith on guitars, French horn, keyboards, programming and backing vocals; and Michael Waters on trombone. In January the group had released Juggernaut, their ninth studio album, which was co-produced with Kalju Tonuma (The Mavis's, Boom Crash Opera) and Mark Opitz (Hoodoo Gurus, Jimmy Barnes, INXS) and the band.

With its release, Hunters & Collectors announced that they would disband after the Juggernaut Say Goodbye tour. On 13 March 1998 at one of the band's last performances, at the Coogee Bay Hotel in Sydney, they recorded Under One Roof. Their last public show was on 22 March 1998 in Melbourne before disbanding. The group also issued a video album of the same name on VHS in 1998, which was directed by Victoria Garrett and Charlie Singer.

In March 2009 Seymour told Patrick Donovan of The Age "It was a pretty serious decision to retire, and all the guys in the band are heavyweight professionals in their respective areas of employment. Obviously we have to put ourselves first. There's just no momentum in the idea (of reforming)".
