Brilliant! The drummer (he came in after Philthy Animal) comes from about a mile from where I live. Don't forget Hawkwind, one of my favourite bands, Silver Machine needs a mention. The band tried every member before deciding Lemmy was the only one who could do the vocals properly for Silver Machine.....

It makes me puke when I think of all the crap solo artists, 'talent' show winners and so-called r'n'b bands which now infest the charts, most of whom couldn't play an instrument or compose a song.

I saw them 12x live. I`m so sad that he died.

Yeah - then they sacked him
Their loss was music's gain: I played Ace Of Spades on 11 yesterday and besides hurting my ears, it bought back great memories. By the way, that song was about gambling - inspired by the symbols on fruit machines which Lemmy was addicted to when he was a teenager. The Ace Of Spades is an unlucky card (Aces and Eights = Dead Man's Hand following some guy being shot at the poker table while holding those cards) and you'll hear gambling references throughout the song.

An aggressive form of cancer apparently. Only diagnosed on Boxing Day.
