Record Collector Presents…Motörhead will be in shops on October 12, but you can pre-order your copy now.

Description: Record Collector Presents… Motörhead gets its leather jacket, bullet belt and cowboy boots on to celebrate the loudest, fastest rock and roll band on the planet! There’s a welcome note from Lemmy’s friends Stacia and Dave Brock from Hawkwind, an early-days run-down with Lucas Fox, plus testimony from friends such as Metal Queen Doro and Slim Jim Phantom, co-founder of the 50s-rockin’ Head Cat. We’ve also got brand new interviews with long-serving Motörhead members Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee and a peep into the archives of a magnificent three collectors. And if you’re craving further stimulants there’s vinyl rarities, a massive UK discography, astounding album profiles by our renowned RC writers and an exclusive extract from Kris Needs’ upcoming ‘Fast’ Eddie Clarke biography. So good, you can’t believe it.

Pre-order here.

Always the most controversial album in Motörhead’s catalogue, Another Perfect Day was up against it from the start. After former Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian Robertson replaced Fast Eddie Clarke, the band’s sixth studio album presented what Lemmy called a more “musical” approach, the classic line-up’s full-tilt ferocity harnessed to more traditional guitar rock tropes enhanced by carefully crafted production.

In 1983, it was initially startling to hear Lemmy and Phil’s patent hell-bound express draped in Robbo’s effects-laden multi-storey guitar overdubs instead of getting hot-wired by Eddie’s deceptively complex thermonuclear blues riffs and embellishments. Following the likewise lambasted Iron Fist and its reappraisal, Another Perfect Day stands before us forty years on from the turbulent time that spawned it as an inevitably divisive one-off chapter in Motörhead’s chaotic early history.

Forty years on, Another Perfect Day holds its own as this most surreal detour in Motörhead’s early roller coaster, deserving its reappraisal away from the heat of the moment when the classic lineup dissolved and Robbo joined the band.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of this sixth record in the Motörhead album arsenal, it is being presented in new deluxe editions. There will be hardback book-packs in two CD and triple LP formats, featuring an amplifier blowing remaster of the original album, previously unreleased demo bonus tracks and a previously unreleased, full concert recorded at Hull City Hall on 22nd June 1983, plus the story of the album and many previously unseen photos. There’s also a limited edition, blue and black swirl of the original standalone album.
