@@TorgMetal Yeah there was a certain feel/vibe that Eddie, Lem and Philthy had that couldn't be replicated in "newer" lineups. I like Mikey Dee, Lem and Campbell but the Hammersmith lineup is my favorite.

Great interview. What strikes me about Clarke is his good humor and positive attitude. He could have become negative or bitter: he was part of an iconic rock group, but apparently didn't make much money from it; then he was kicked out for a stupid reason; then he formed Fastway with high hopes but then Way flaked out on him, and soon Dave King lost interest in the band. But through it all he maintained a good attitude. And what a great storyteller, I would have listened to him for an hour. May he RIP.

Man, you can hear Ed's voice crack a bit when he tells the story of his being ousted. I was AT his last gig (the Palladium), and I can tell you, you could cut the tension between he and Lem with a fuckin' knife. They played well, maybe with desperation- there was feeling in the air of something terrible happening. I'll never forget it. R.I.P., 3 Amigos.

I could never really get into the new Motorhead, they were awesome live though especially in 1984, but for me the real deal has always been Lem, Fast, and Philthy Phil.. but for years I always thought Fast Eddie carried a chip on his shoulder and HE was the one who was unreasonable.. Now my eyes are open. How could they be so blind, to treat Eddie like that? Stupid really, completely stupid!!!

That song has some of the most seriously badassed riffs Ive ever heard. I love the guitar work in Bang to Rights too. Eddie, you are a fn god.
