@@jacestephenweatherall1732 Wurzel was god of guitar i love him too but number one is Eddie, Eddie opened my mind for guitar plays and his licks made my life more happy :D
I was walking in a park in twickenham today and came across a bench reading 'dedicated to my husband' fast Eddie clarke' I couldn't believe it! I thought is that thee fast Eddie! So I Googled it and he was indeed from twickenham! (I'm not a local). I sat down and blasted some ace of spades in his honour! ! I hope you're rocking away up there mate! With your old pal lemmy! 🤘
HAHAAAAH - I remember a nice joke here: Lemmy comes to Valhalla and meets Odin. Odin shows the whole place to him and finally, they end up in his armoury - and Odin wonders, why Lemmy shakes his head all the time. "What's up with you?" Odin says "Let's go to my place", Lemmy says, "I'll show you what an armoury has got to looks like!"
After watching this video you really come to appreciate the professionalism of a band like Motorhead. After they are long gone the band will still be heard by new generations of rockers. Motorhead forever.
Well, Eddie was young back in the 80's. and as we all know rock 'n roll artists live a very fast and crazy life, especially when they're young. So yeah, probably Eddie didn't act very professional back then, but I'm sure he is not the same person now. Any how when I wrote "professional", I was referring to the effort and time they invest to become exceptional musicians.
You lucky dog. I bet it was fun and interesting to have met the classic Motorhead band in person. They were awesome with Eddie and Phil. I was very lucky to see Motorhead perform live in Los Angeles back in the early 80's
Definitely. You can tell he built everything around a blues influence and it gave the classic lineup of Motorhead their sound that IMHO was them sounding at their best. Too bad we never got to see the original 3 play together on a tour one last time. Eddie had no wish to leave Motorhead-it was his dislike of collaborating with Wendy O'Williams that clashed with Phil and Lemmy. (Always the poontang causing problems...it was according to Phil the reason Lemmy fired him as he claimed to have stolen one of Lemmy's ladies.)
Motorhead have always blessed their fans with great guitar players RIP Fast Eddie... You didn't realise how good Fast Eddie Clarke was until he's gone..
I did. It’s the reason, fast and loud as they were, those early Motörhead albums can still act like a lullaby to me and soothe me to sleep. Fast Eddie was a genius.
Sad day as Fast Eddie has gone.one of the best guitar players and one of life's good guys.classic Motörhead were part of my teen years growing up,always remember seeing them at the Lyceum on the overkill tour and at Hammersmith odeon on the bomber tour,seriously loud.3 guys who knew how to enjoy themselves and make a lot of people happy and deaf at the same time.may all 3 rest in peace.
Saw them a couple of times, Hammersmith and Crawley leisure centre, not sure of the year but I was still at school. I was going to say the same as you Dave Stickley, they were the loudest band I have ever seen, bloody brilliant.
I always liked Eddie also-not only for his guitar playing but also because he's one helluva good story teller during these interviews. He also seemed like a genuinely nice man. Not everyone would offer to pay thieves that stole a prized guitar-seemed just his way of smoothing things over and not ruining anyone's life. His stories about the early days with Phil and Lemmy are amazing and always with humor. (Even though Phil claimed Eddie was like Hitler as a foreman....probably just his being a perfectionist.)
Fast Eddie was never replaced.............I booked tickets for Motorhead many times and made sure I was on the side of Mr Clarke. I just grateful I seen the best Motorhead line up of all time on a few occasions. Nicki Dee and Campbell never came close, yeah Lemmy vouched for them so much but it was never the same.
I'm not into Motorhead in a big way but Fast Eddie Clarke's guitar riff from "Bomber" made me take up and learn the electric guitar back in the late seventies - I'd never heard a riff so good that fitted a song so perfectly. Fast Eddie Clarke: A true working and gigging guitarist who eventually hit the big time.
Fast Eddie is the reason the entire reason I started playing strats all those years ago my Grandma bought me a Korean Squier Strat used first thing I done was take it apart sand it down to wood linseed oil it and put a HB in the in the for Christmas that year she Bought me a 50 watt 1× 12 Marshall valve state and I still play them to this!!P.S GRANDMA thank you. R.I.P. Fast Eddie.
His leads on "Overkill" and "Stone dead forever"( especially the Golden years EP) are ICONIC and truelly in the same league as the riffs itself !!! All hail to Fast Eddie Clarke, six string GOD forever!!!
He seemed a lovely boke - massive influence on me musically - he always answered my facebook messages. Him and Lemmy - influenced my playing immensely on both bass and guitar!
My goodness what talented musicians these guys were. 'Pretty tight since we have not played it together for 20 years!' Lemmy, this sounds absolutely freakin' superb! Fast Eddies tone was an essential part of the original Motörhead line up. Phil was just incredible, and Lemmy played bass with a unique style just like a lead guitarist at times (in fact he called himself a guitarist who plays bass and not a bass guitarist), astonishing with so much guts. But it was the overall incredible sound together that made them Motörhead. That sound was absolutely unique, and here the lads prove that hands down. Every one of them in the groove. Lemmy foot tappin' and ringing out that gutsy rhythm, Phil and Eddie right in the flow of the fast paced music. God bless Lemmy. He had his falling out with Eddie for leaving the group, but was man enough to put that aside with the decency to allow this jamming session of the greatest Motörhead line up to take place. Credence Lemmy for that alone. You did all of humanity a service. You know, there are many imitators, but nobody replicated the original Motörhead line ups sound, and this here is the REAL DEAL. This is what I got into Motörhead for, this! Not loudness, but this sound. This incredible sound. Such a sad, sad loss, but their musical magnificence remains for all time as an inspiration to the generations who come after them. Eddie too, what a lovely bloke. He made time for everyone, a real gent, and a superb guitarist. RIP guys. Somewhere in Heaven right now jamming and rubbing shoulders with the greats. How Hendrix and others must be so proud of Lemmy, Eddie, and Phil. They came a long way, reached up and touched the stars.
+Dana Jacobson He really was. I was lucky enough to interview him around 1988 for college radio. I interviewed a ton of musicians for a ton of bands, and out of all of them he was hands down the friendly and most patient one. not at all like his stage name. RIP Phil.
+Abdul AlpLimIndFox Yep, neither an animal (except on the drums), nor Philthy, just a really cool guy happy to spend 30 minutes answering questions and shooting the breeze.
For the better, you can't go wrong having some of Fast Eddie's playing incorporated in your sound. Still wear a Motorhead shirt today 40 plus years after first hearing this classic lineup. RIP guys!
Not pretty tight since you have not played it together for 20 years Lemmy, but rather absolutely bloody fantastic! This is the musical definition of Motorhead!!! This is the sound everybody craved. This is the sound that got me and kept me with Motorhead. This is the sound I loved. Why did you lose Fast Eddie? 😢
They Set One Great Standard Of All The History I Will Never Forget 81 San Francisco Old Waldorf To San Jose Civic Auditorium Were My First Two Shows Seeing Them Loud Is Beyond Anyone I Ever Saw felt Like A Steamroller Hit You Great Great Memories
Philthy- we miss you brotha'!..... ........Simple as that. Thumbs up, and remember this man!!.. Ahhh, the times in the car listening to his drumming.....
God damn i miss ya Eddie.. You we're one of my Main inspiration to pick up the guitar 2 years ago, still play your tunes and licks. Hope to see you someday! 🤘🤘
WoW, Just found out about Fast Eddie's passing in the end-of-the-year tributes. Definitely will be missed. His contributions to the legendary sounds of Heavy Metal are Monumental ! Never got to see this ltalented axeman but Fast Eddie will live on in my memories,
RIP Fast Eddie. One of the most underrated guitarists in rock and roll history.
Fast Eddie's guitar sound was vital for Motorhead. After he left the band has never been the same. I'm not saying they sounded bad, just different.
@lane_departure technology? What changed in 40 years of Motorhead´s history?
Motorhead died when Eddie left.
Agreed
Motorhead nevera usted tecnology, they Was always the same
He was the best but robbo was damn good on another perfect day.
RIP Fast Eddie Clarke.
The number one guitarist in my book, learned everything I know from him.
Rest In Peace,All
Three
@@teddylong2167 rip all four wurzel.
@@jacestephenweatherall1732 Wurzel was god of guitar i love him too but number one is Eddie, Eddie opened my mind for guitar plays and his licks made my life more happy :D
what did you learn ?
This was THE Motorhead sound.....Original, and best, line up.
Indeed. It wasn't the same with new members. Something was missing. Fast Eddie first and Filthy Animal second. It wasn't the same monster after that.
True. The OG members were Motorhead. The rest played Motorhead songs quite well. That single guitar has its own sound.
Eddie was truly one of the greatest guitar players of all time, it’s a real shame that he is never put on the lists of the greatest players

@@personanongrataiS cheers mate. Have a good one!
And what about Philthy? He was the engine!!!
Dude hell yeah I know all three of them were looking down on you and throwing up the devil's horns rock on mate
No shit! Brilliant, what a guitarist and what a band.
Sounds so aggressive, yet he played so elegantly. Three lightnings for perfect thunderstorm✌ Victory or die!
RIP, Motorhead is complete again in Valhalla.
Weidocu Senocenetli that is the best tribute ever!
Taylor lives the Icelandic walhalla, lemmy fuck up some dinosaurs and fast eddy playing a love song for Lucy 🐎

In Hell man...In Hell...
R.I.P. Fast Eddie Clarke, long live to the greatest Motörhead lineup ever! (Lemmy, Animal Phil and Fast Eddie)
The best line up by far .

Generations wont have time for entertainment. Some crust , eddie is anything but fast dust
***** that is so cool to know that Lemmy plays from the "hip".
With Eddie, there was always a kind of " boogie-woogie" in it, missing after he left.
Listen to 'Goin To Brazil' on '1916', Wurzl & Wizzo......dueling Les Pauls !
By far the best Mhead.
Definitely. You can tell he built everything around a blues influence and it gave the classic lineup of Motorhead their sound that IMHO was them sounding at their best.

I have seen Motorhead three times but unfortunately never fast Eddie' to. Bad
Saw them a couple of times, Hammersmith and Crawley leisure centre, not sure of the year but I was still at school. I was going to say the same as you Dave Stickley, they were the loudest band I have ever seen, bloody brilliant.

His stories about the early days with Phil and Lemmy are amazing and always with humor. (Even though Phil claimed Eddie was like Hitler as a foreman....probably just his being a perfectionist.)
When I first heard the Hammer it was like I was reborn anew. I couldn't believe there was still legit rock and roll that was so fresh and violent.
Watching this, I realized again how stoic Eddie was - no twisting and bending and jumping around, just delivering his soaring sound and talent.
This raw and filthy guitar sound...GREAT !!! R.I.P. Eddie.
The sound! Without Eddie, there was never Motorhead... Lemmy, Eddie, Phil.. That's it... RIP Eddie, gone way too soon..
Saw them in 80 or 81 open for ozzy blizzard of Oz, 2nd row center..ears still ringing.....motorhead was looouuuddddd....
They never sounded better then with the original line up! Everything fits together perfectly.
Well, the original line up had neither Eddie nor Phil in it.
Fast Eddie was never replaced.............I booked tickets for Motorhead many times and made sure I was on the side of Mr Clarke. I just grateful I seen the best Motorhead line up of all time on a few occasions. Nicki Dee and Campbell never came close, yeah Lemmy vouched for them so much but it was never the same.

Fast Eddie RIP. Saw the classical lineup in 81.
Me too. Where did you see these characters then? I saw 'em at the Old Waldorf in San Francisco....40 years ago this month. An awesome show.
He seemed a lovely boke - massive influence on me musically - he always answered my facebook messages. Him and Lemmy - influenced my playing immensely on both bass and guitar!
Fucki'n lucky bastard! My favourite guitarist of all time...
The band and Fast Eddie created a blend of punk tone and Heavy metal that'll never happen again.Eddie Clarke - forgotten legend.
RIP Eddie. The last of the great 3 to sadly leave us.
RIP Fast Eddie! Your guitar playing is often imitated, but never duplicated
Pure Dynamics, yet one of the hardest sounds ever: All Sadly missed but Never Forgotten!
R.I.P Eddie. I hope you, Lem, Phil and Wurzel are rocking it out in heaven :(
Love the guitar sound long live eddie
This man will never cease to inspire me. I've learned so much from listening to his playing. His influence will never die 🤘
Ladies & Gentlemen,
THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY M O T Ö R H E A D !!!!!!!!!!
Thanx

Big smile at 1:42 when that wall of sound comes smoking out of one single guitar!
Wow- great player and down to earth guy.
That tone is amazing! One of a kind Solo's...after he left Ace of spades was never played the same.
he had great riffs! the best riffs in metal come from him and tony iommi
The real truth right there! Both are The Godfathers of riffs
Ja man! God bless You!
One of my favorite guitarists ever and a big influence. He's the reason I love CBS headstock Strats so much.
My facourite man, this feeling...
The Trinity is reunited. May they play on forever. Thanks for the memories. RIP fellas.
The distictive sound is all in the hands of the player
R.I.P. Eddie! Thanks for Wonderful guitar playing!
We lost you 3 years ago exactly today.. rest in peace you Guitar god!
It’s been over 4 years since he died.
Best lineup for Motörhead EVER ❤️❤️❤️🇧🇻
One of "Crunch"- tone that's make every electric rock guitar player to chase .. he one of the best- RIP legend
That’s THE sound. 💎🔥💎
He's in my top 10 for my favorite guitarists of all time. Guy was a fusion between a punk rock guitarist and metal guitarist

This guy is the the term.. cool.. no doubt about it.
"Love how he's playing with the original line-up..Lemmie/ Philthy!"
Motörhead best lineup Lemmy Animal and Fast Eddie. Absolutely! Motörhead music lives FOREVER!!!
My friend and I always talk highly of Eddie lemmy and phil equally. Eddie is the man.
For better or for worse, I now know where Kirk Hammett got his approach for Kill 'Em All.
For the better, you can't go wrong having some of Fast Eddie's playing incorporated in your sound. Still wear a Motorhead shirt today 40 plus years after first hearing this classic lineup. RIP guys!
RIP Eddie. Thank you for the music
Not pretty tight since you have not played it together for 20 years Lemmy, but rather absolutely bloody fantastic! This is the musical definition of Motorhead!!! This is the sound everybody craved.

Agreed
Always will be in my mind.
Without a doubt.
Absolutely
Always loved this guy from motorhead to fastway...
Great stuff!! The origional motorhead player and his guitar.. Iconic!
RIP, Eddie. Been a fan since '83.
Fast Eddie was the man. The best Motorhead songs are with him in the band. On the albums with Phil I might like 2 or 3 songs top.
