2nd Birthday Wording Sesame Street

Motörhead (The Beginning)

The band was founded in 1975, when Ian Fraser Kilmister Lemmy said, then bassist space rock group Hawkwind, he was fired from the band during a tour in Canada for possession of drugs (amphetamines), and put in jail for five days. Lemmy (active in the British underground scene since the '60s with the Rockin 'Vickers and the group of Indian tabla player Sam Gopal) decided to form his own band with guitarist Larry Wallis (Pink Fairies already in) and drummer Lucas Fox . The name was chosen at the beginning Bastard, soon changed (at the suggestion of Doug Smith, manager of their age, "With a name like that is almost impossible that you will participate one day at Top of the Pops.") In new "Motörhead" , taken from the title of the song written by Lemmy for Hawkwind. This term refers, in the jargon, the "speed freak" in reference to the effects of amphetamines. The umlaut over the letter "O" of their name is supposed to be only an effect of heavy metal umlaut, as they had done previously in the Blue Öyster Cult. The umlaut would not alter the pronunciation of their name, which is then referred to simply as an "O" normal. The stated purpose by Lemmy at the beginning, was to be part of the "worst band in the world", although many times Motörhead are labeled as the "loudest band in the world." Motörhead live debut July 20, 1975 at the Roundhouse Londra.Dopo Lucax few shows but Fox gave way to the battery to the then rookie Phil Taylor (later nicknamed "Animal Philty Taylor") in 1976 and also Larry Wallis was replaced by the more experienced Eddie Clarke, coming from the Curtis Knight and Zeus. It was thus completed the historic organ of Motörhead, which will remain unchanged until 1982 and that many still consider the "classical education" group. In the same year the band entered the studio to record his first album, On Parole, which will, however, rejected the label United Artists, which will deliver the prints only three years tardi.Nel 1977 Motörhead signed to the label Stiff but their single, Leaving Here / White Line Fever, was not published in England until the reissue box set 45 of the first ten laps of the label, entitled Bunch Of Stiffs. The album was released, however, France and Scandinavia. On 1 April the same year the band performed the last concert at the Marquee Club Londra.Sostenuti by Ted Carroll Chiswick Records label, for which they had recently signed, Motörhead released their first album, 's Motörhead same name (same name already preceded by a single Hawkwind). The album, recorded in just two days, was the greeting of their presentations and documents, effectively, and rough driving style of the trio, featuring the vocals of Lemmy hoarse and scratchy, fast-paced supported by the thunderous bass of the same singer and drums, guitar solos and the very effective measures, which do not affect the basic melody enthralling. Motörhead is thus presented as a band capable of fusing punk and hard rock, giving rise to what many critics has been considered the hardest rock and roll, fast and full of musical history. The album cover also appeared for the first time Snaggletooth, graphic symbol created by Joe Petagno and evolve into the main symbol of Motörhead.Nel 1978, after it has teamed with the Damned, but remained without concrete result The band left the Chiswick (will be the first in a series of breaks with the record companies) in favor of Bronze Records. The agreement was inaugurated by the 45 rpm "Louie Louie / Tear Ya Down".
