Motorhead “Ace of Spades”
Motorhead “Ace of Spades” 1980, Limited Christmas edition 12″ single, Bronze Records. Really the perfect spin for getting into the 2020 holiday mood #fuck2020. The regular single edition of “Ace of Spades” was released in October 1980; it went to #15 in the UK in ‘80 and then hit #13 in 2015 after Lemmy’s death. It is the epitome of speed metal and it’s regularly listed as one of the greatest songs ever. The b-side is another shredder, “Dirty Love,” which did not appear on the original edition of the LP Ace of Spades but was included on a 1996 CD reissue
Daily (maybe) pulls from the vault: 33-1/3, 45, 78, old, older, classic, new, good, bad. Subjective. Autobiographical. Occasionally putting a record up for sale.
