Cover Notes: In 1976, the seminal line-up 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 joined forces and began their extraordinary journey to the top of the hard rock elite. In August 1976 the band set up at Emerson, Lake & Palmer's legendary Manticore Studio in Fulham to rehearse and showcase the new lineup. While they were there they recorded together for the very first time and now 49 years later, the long lost tape has been discovered, dusted off and restored in all it's raw glory, to celebrate the bands 50th anniversary. Including additional alternate takes and instrumentals for a unique insight into the birth of this legendary band as well as an extra bonus LP 'Live: Blitzkrieg on Birmingham '77' as well as a bonus 7-inch featuring two previously unreleased tracks live at Barbarellas Birmingham in 1977. There's also a 24 page booklet with liner notes from long-time collaborator Kris Needs.
