Classic Album #15: Motorhead - Ace of Spades.
 

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man,
You win some, lose some, all the same to me,
The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say,
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades

Good man. Good choice.

I might have been tempted to go for No Sleep 'til Hammersmith, myself, but that probably ought to be saved for the forthcoming series of "Classic Live Albums" threads.


I know I'm going to lose,
and gambling's for fools,
but that's the way I like it baby
I don't want to live forever

great choice and record.

Love this album, and that's more than just the title track. They never quite reached such heights again, unfortunately, though they of course alway rock.

Finally, and album that is actually a classic.

What is there left to say? Ace Of Fucking Spades.

of all the 57879 motörhead albums...can you believe i don't have any actual motörhead albums, i have the compilation all the aces, but this one has "love me like a reptile" and "we're the road crew" so it's rad in my book.

Agreed.

Great album, but the versions of these songs on No Sleep Til Hammersmith slay the studio takes.
Still, a worthy classic, and one that gets a lot of play around here.

It's one of those albums I've always intended to buy, but never have.

Great album. I wish more bands would rip-off Motorhead instead of post-punk and no-wave bands.

EDIT: and beat happening, Aussie bands need to stop ripping off beat happening.
