Motorhead - No Sleep 'til Hammersmith

 

Motörhead's No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith gets 40th anniversary expansion

Deluxe triple album 20-page book pack

In the summer of 1981, Motörhead got louder, dirtier and more universal, and fans now are invited to relive this most glorious achievement once again!

Following 2020's year-long celebration of Motörhead's iconic Ace Of Spades album comes the live album to end all live albums, the undisputed definitive live record of all time, No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of this number one album, it is being presented in new deluxe editions.

This edition comes in a hardback book pack triple LP featuring a new, venue-demolishing remaster of the original album, and the previously unreleased — in its entirety — concert from Newcastle City Hall, March 30, 1981, the story of the album and many previously unseen photos.

Upon that original June 27, 1981 release, Lemmy is quoted as saying of No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith after it crashed into No. 1 in the U.K. chart: "I knew it'd be the live one that went best, because we're really a live band. You can't listen to a record and find out what we're about. You've got to see us." No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith was Motörhead's first and only number one record in the U.K. and is still the most necessary live album of all time.

Features:
• The No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith album, remastered from the original master tapes.
• The full Newcastle show from March 30, 1981
• The story of No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith told through previously unpublished and new interviews with the people that were on the road at the time.
• Never-before-seen photos and rare memorabilia.
