Catalog Number: XXQLP2149 Color: Black Format: LP UPC: 029667025911 2-LP version of one of the most seminal and important heavy metal albums of all time. Funded by and released on Chiswick Records in 1977, Motorhead's debut album was a sonic blister of epic proportions capturing the musical lighting generated by Lemmy (bass/vocals), Phil Taylor (guitar) and Eddie Clarke (drums). This 2-LP set not only offer up this classic first album featuring tracks like 'White Line Fever', 'Violator' and 'Keep Us On The Road' but also collates together, on sides three and four, 'City Kids' the "Beer Drinkers EP" as well as different mixed and alternative versions of ear-bleeding classics like 'Motorhead', 'The Watcher' and 'Keep Us On The Road'. The album cover features a silver hot foil replication Joe Petagno's original Motorhead logo in all its glory. Sleeve notes are by Ted Carroll who takes the reader through the story of how Chiswick Records managed to scrape together the money to fund the recording and write themselves and Motorhead into rock and roll history.
