Motorhead The Lost Tapes Vol.2
12' VINYL DLP
______________________________
Cassette tapes. Remember those? Those things with the dual spools and
loads of wide brown plastic recording string that’d occasionally unravel
and hang out of the shell, requiring a pencil and firm wrist to spin
back into place? Yeah, well, once upon a time, old-school sound systems
contained cassette decks for the express purpose of recording shows, and
these “cassette” things were a standard part of every tour.
Motörhead
were certainly no exception, recording show after show. They contain
gold, pure aural gold, and had for many years sat hundreds of feet
underground in a small cave Lemmy owned, guarded by small, hairy
centurions in Roman armour with small spears and bad attitudes. Only the
magic password would release them, and thankfully, Lem had scribbled it
down and left it inside an old sketch book for us (no, we won’t tell
you the password, although it did have the words ’nie nie nie’ in it).
There were loads of the dirty, dusty, greasy little buggers gathered,
with the likes of Lyon, Liverpool, Hamburg and Chippenham (!!) scrawled
in biro on the tiny labels alongside a date…and thus we are delighted to
announce that this unique collection of live gems will now be heard by
the world, via carefully digitized transfers, in a new series titled The
Löst Tapes.
Volume two has been hand-picked by the increasingly deaf,
but well-meaning (and hydrated!) Motörhead team, along with surviving
members Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee, and sees the trio in blistering
form on the Snake Bite Love album tour recorded at the University of
East Anglia, Norwich on 18th October 1998.
