Motörhead: Motorhead

Track of the Week - 13 January 2019

Mrs Tea at Johnny's and I bought a new vacuum cleaner this week. Exciting times, eh?

When we went to get it, with a combination of Christmas and left over work reward vouchers, I was amused to find that the product name was Motorhead. (Little things please little minds and all that.)

That means I can choose this headbanger of a tune this week. Written by Lemmy when he was in Hawkwind, Motorhead first appeared as a 1975 b-side.

Then Lemmy got fired from Hawkwind and formed Motörhead and the song was re-recorded for their 1977 eponymous debut album.

I've chosen the Motörhead version as it's the one I know better and I prefer it to be honest. And I haven't written the word Motorhead enough.

I n case you were wondering, it's not about vacuum cleaners.
