Description
Released at the beginning of 1991, 1916 was Motorhead's ninth studio album, their first for major label Epic, and their first new album in almost four years.
Joined by the legendary and inimitable Lemmy Kilmister on bass and vocals are Phil "Wizz" Campbell and Wrzel on lead guitar along with long term Motorhead drummer Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor.
The album reached 24 on the UK charts, as well as their first record to make a dent on the US Billboard charts. Marking Lemmys relocation to Los Angeles, 1916 was nominated for a Grammy Award.
Description
180g audiophile vinyl reissue, remastering by Ray Staff at Air Mastering, Lyndhurst Hall, London.
Rock'n'Roll! If ever there was one single album that summed up the Motorhead philosophy of 'We are Motorhead, and we play Rock'N'Roll Music', it was '1916'! The real 'swansong' of the dreamteam/dreamtime line up of Lemmy, Phil Campbell, Wurzel and Philthy Animal Taylor, '1916' raised the bar for Motoralbums to follow with it's 'all killer, no filler' approach, not a duff track to be had….'The One To Sing The Blues' was as potent a statement of intent for the rest of the album as you're ever likely to get, pure Motorhead, a sonic kick in the guts and a heart punch in the lyrics.
