Recorded between 1977 and 1996. Includes liner notes by Hugh Gilmour. Even though there have been numerous Motorhead best of's, live collections, and box sets issued, more and more crop up each year. 2000's OVER THE TOP is a rarities collection of sorts, featuring 12 tracks of alternate takes, B-sides, and other forgotten numbers.

Highlights include the infamous 1981 UK hit "Please Don't Touch" (which was a collaboration between Motorhead and the all-female metal band Girlschool), an alternate take of "Over the Top," plus covers of "Train Kept A Rollin'" and "Louie Louie." Although most of these tracks are included on the late-90's remastered versions of Motorhead's early CD catalogue, longtime fans will enjoy having them all on a single disc.

12 Tracks;B-Sides,Covers & Alt Versions. Motorhead: Lemmy Kilmister, Eddie Clarke, Philthy Animal Taylor. Compilation producers: Steve Hammonds, Julian Wall.

Learn five Motorhead tracks note for note with Andy James. This superb DVD will teach you five tracks by one of Britain?s foremost 80s heavy metal bands.

Motorhead - one of the most charismatic British hard-rock bands, which had a huge impact on all the heavy music, in particular, the emergence of speed metal, but to take her music to the style of speed metal is possible only with great reserve. The band, rather, can be described as a combination of hard rock, punk and proto-thrash.

Motorhead's overwhelmingly loud and fast style of heavy metal was one of the most groundbreaking styles the genre had to offer in the late '70s. Though the group's leader, Lemmy Kilminster, had his roots in the hard-rocking space rock band Hawkwind, Motorhead didn't bother with his old group's progressive tendencies, choosing to amplify the heavy biker rock elements of Hawkwind with the speed of punk rock. Motorhead wasn't punk rock -- they formed before the Sex Pistols and they loved the hell-for-leather imagery of bikers too much to conform with the safety-pinned, ripped T-shirts of punk -- but they were the first metal band to harness that energy and, in the process, they created speed metal and thrash metal. Unlike many of their contemporaries, Motorhead continued performing into the next century. Although the band changed its lineup many, many times -- Lemmy was its only consistent member -- they never changed their raging sound.
