Motörhead — The Manticore Tapes
The original "lost" never-heard album!
Recorded in 1976 at Manticore Studios
First-ever recording with the classic Three Amigos lineup at their rawest!
Deluxe Edition 2LP + 7" Deluxe 24-page Bookpack!
In 1976 the seminal line-up of Motorhead was solidified a year after the band's initial inception. The "three amigos" era of Motorhead; Lemmy (bass/vocals), Fast Eddie Clarke (guitar) and Phil ‘Philthy Animal' Taylor joined forces and began their extraordinary journey to the top of the hard rock elite.
In August 1976 the band set up at Emerson, Lake & Palmer's legendary Manticore Studio in Fulham to rehearse and showcase the new lineup. While they were there they recorded together for the very first time and now 49 years later, the long lost tape has been discovered, dusted off and restored in all it's raw glory, to celebrate the bands 50th anniversary!
Available as a deluxe expanded 2LP bookpack, all formats include additional alternate takes and instrumentals for a unique insight into the birth of this legendary band. The deluxe bookpack comes with an extra bonus LP — the classic bonus Live: Blitzkrieg on Birmingham ‘77 as well as a bonus 7" featuring two previously unreleased tracks live at Barbarellas Birmingham in 1977. There's also a 24-page booklet with liner notes from long-time collaborator Kris Needs.

• The Manticore Tapes. The recently discovered, first ever recordings of the three amigos lineup of Motörhead from 1976.
• Blitzkreig on Birmingham '77 live LP.
