In 1976, the seminal lineup of Motörhead was solidified a year after the band's initial inception. The "three amigos" era of Motörhead; Lemmy (bass/vocals), Fast Eddie Clarke (guitar) and Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor (drums), joined forces and began their extraordinary journey to the top of the hard rock elite. In August of that year, the band set up at Emerson, Lake & Palmer's legendary Manticore Studio in Fulham to rehearse and showcase their new lineup. Now, 49 years after recording there for the first time, the long-lost tape has been discovered, dusted off and restored in all it's raw glory to celebrate the band's 50th anniversary.

Zoe ★★★★★

I was blown away by how raw and powerful these early Motörhead tracks sound on this CD—the 1976 lineup of Lemmy, Fast Eddie, and Philth really comes through. The track sequencing captures that frantic energy perfectly, and it’s become my go-to for cranking in the car.

Nicholas Z. ★★★★★

The sound quality on this pressing is fantastic — you can really hear Lemmy's bass growl and Fast Eddie's raw guitar cuts through clean. It's the "three amigos" lineup captured perfectly, and the 1976 material feels alive, not dated. I've played it three times since it arrived and it's already a fav
