Radio Metal has published an interview conducted with MOTÖRHEAD drummer Mikkey Dee, who discusses the possibility of a covers album. An excerpt follows:

Q: Lemmy and Phil Campbell both told us a couple of years ago about an idea they had for an all acoustic/bluesy album. Is it something that’s still on the agenda?

A: "I don’t know about the acoustic part, but we’d like to do a cover album. I’d say we would pick maybe four songs each, and then put it on the record. That’s a big idea, and maybe the next album will be a cover album, I don’t know."

Q: I wanted to ask you about that actually: what kind of covers could be expected on a Motörhead cover album?

A: "I don’t know. I just know that me and Phil were laughing very hard one day when we said one of us would chose a CELINE DION or BARBRA STREISAND song for Lemmy to sing [laughs]. No, it’s a joke, but it’d be fun to hear Lemmy sing something really high, it would kill him! [laughs] Or what’s the BON JOVI song... What’s it called... 'Living On A Prayer'! No but I’m sure we’d pick what we like the most: Lemmy loves THE BEATLES and would probably pick a JIMI HENDRIX song, something like that, and myself, I would love to cover maybe a DEEP PURPLE song... You never know. I think it’d be a huge variety of songs, but that would also be the charm and the interest of that album."
