"Motorhead" is a song written by Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister that was first recorded by his band Hawkwind in 1975 and released as the B-side of their single ''Kings of Speed''.〔(Kings of Speed ) at Discogs.com〕 Two years later it was recorded and released by Lemmy's new band Motörhead as a 7" vinyl single in June 1977, initially issued with the ''Map of Chiswick'' label, later it was switched to the ''Big Beat'' label and pressed in other formats.〔 The reverse cover is taken up almost entirely with the song's lyrics, printed in a lowercase form of blackletter. Most of the original singles have the words "a porky prime cut" inscribed on the run-out groove, indicating that the record was mastered by George Peckham. A variety of supporting messages also appear. Chiswick also released a special 12" vinyl edition which was limited to 12,500 copies, it has the same sleeve, tracks and catalogue number - Chiswick S13.〔 On April 28, 1979 Lemmy was interviewed by John Tobler on BBC Radio 1's ''Rock on Saturday'' show, ''Motorhead'', ''Leaving Here'' and ''Limb from Limb'' were played.〔 In September 1979 Chiswick released a 7" vinyl picture disc in two pressings, black & white, and blue & white as well as single colour pressings in black, blue, pink, orange and white vinyl - catalogued Big Beat NSP13 and NS13 respectively.〔 In 1981, a live recording, ''Motorhead'' was released as a single and reached number 6 in the UK Singles Charts.〔 In 2008, the song was re-recorded as downloadable content for the rhythm game ''Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock'', along with ''Stay Clean'' and ''(We Are) The Road Crew''. It was covered by Primal Scream on their 1997 album ''Vanishing Point''. ==Single track listing== # "Motorhead" (Ian Kilmister) # "City Kids" (Larry Wallis, Duncan Sanderson) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Motorhead (Motörhead song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
