Motorhead - On Parole [1975]



On Parole was the first album recorded by Motörhead in 1975-6. However, the record label, United Artists, were not pleased with the recorded material and initially did not release it.

The album was released unofficially in 1979, when the band had established some reputation with their Overkill and Bomber albums. This is the only album to feature the band's initial line-up: Lemmy on bass and vocals, Larry Wallis on lead guitar (and vocals on "Vibrator" and "Fools"), and Lucas Fox on drums (one track only). Fox had become uncreasingly unreliable and when he didn't turn up a second time, Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor, who had been persuaded to drive Lemmy to Rockfield Studios, was asked to overdub the tracks that Fox had recorded. Taylor didn't have sufficient time to overdub "Lost Johnny", as he was in jail following a drunk-and-disorderly drinking session,[1] so it remains as the only track in the entire Motörhead discography to feature Lucas Fox on the drums.

I love this record. I may even go as far as saying it's my favorite.

Motorhead/Girlschool - St.Valentines Day Massacre (1981)



The collaboration between Motörhead and Girlschool started in March, 1979, when Motörhead began their first big tour with Overkill and Girlschool were their opening act. Lemmy had heard Girlschool's single "Take It All Away" and thought they were "fucking excellent" and liked the idea of girls being in a band. In his opinion, Kelly Johnson was as good as any guitarist he'd ever seen in his life and "wanted to stick it up these pompous bastard guitarists' asses". In late December 1980, Motörhead's drummer, Phil Taylor, broke his neck, preventing his continuing to play, so Motörhead's producer, Vic Maile, suggested they record a single with Girlschool. Lemmy chose "Please Don't Touch" by one of his favorite groups of the past, Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, for the flipside. The bands recorded each others' songs — Girlschool performed "Bomber" and Motörhead performed "Emergency", although Denise Dufort played drums throughout.The record was released on February 14, 1981, as St. Valentine's Day Massacre EP and reaching #5 in the UK Singles Chart, it became the biggest hit either band ever had in the charts.

It's also one of my All-Time favorite Album covers.
