Was at the Roundhouse to see Greenslade with motor head as support.
WOW that's awesome!!!

Wow...this very first live version of “Motörhead“ blowed my ears so fucking free....what a blast to start the show ! Lemmy did the best sounding version of Motörhead right at the beginning on the very first gig,..now over 40 years later I hear it for the first time after Lemmy is gone for a while..and thats the proof Motörhead's still alive !! Thank you Lem
It's full of punk, before punk. Isnt it?
The best band ever is born.
Motörhead forever
R.I.P. Lemmy and all guys of Motörhead. ✊🏻🎸♠️🤘🏻💥💯
Awesome. Like hearing the Beatles live at the Cavern. History on tape, the birth of a rock 'n' roll monster. RIP Lem
I‘m sure the Beatles didn't play recordings of Adolph Shitler before the show.
@@cliffbungalow9373. i believe Lemmy had a fond liking of Hitler , solely based on lyrics and what Lemmy says in a lot of his songs , he was aware of the corruption back then, . then again I don’t know shit and would just really like to think Lemmy fucked with Hitlers ideas
@@nocturnal6311Lemmy didn't have any kind of fondness for Hitler, quite the opposite. He had a fondness for Nazi machinery and memorabilia for it's aesthetic qualities.
I saw them supporting Hawkwind in 1977 at Bridlington spa hall.
We'd never heard of them and when I asked my mate what they were called he said I think they said their name was Butterhead. It wasn't until we were leaving that we saw the stacks with Motorhead on them that we realised their name was actually motorhead not Butterhead.
Lemmy came back on and did the full set with Hawkwind.
Absolute hero.
I've had this show on tape for years.Got it from a tape trader in pennsylvania.Classic gem i must say.
Never saw the original line, but I saw the greatest line up of all times, many times, Lemmy, Eddie, n Phil... I can clearly remember one day happy sweet kid 14/15 years old, I suppose it was 1977, the Motorhead album had just been released. Now at this time, this album never got any airplay, and by chance it got a play once when I was listening, possibly radio Caroline... Anyway I thought OMG, WTF was that!!! immediately I take all my savings head straight to my local record store in east London, and many others, no one had it or had even heard of it!!!! I eventually found a store (Downtown records in Ilford), where the guy had heard of it, and told me he'd order it, which he didnt do, I had to go back every week, for about 3 or 4 times hassling the guy until he eventually ordered it, probably just to get rid of me!!! although, I have a slight memory of him telling me there was a problem with the record label or something. Saw them live soon after, even bumped into Lemmy at a Wayne Krammer gig, could have been Dingwalls, London, saw Lemmy at the bar, chatted with him and he bought me a pint!!! Those were the days!!!
I saw Motorhead at the Pomona Valley Auditorium , called The Green Room back in 1977.....Loudest concert I'd ever been to.....My ears rang for an entire week. ........
Saw them in Toronto, '81, at the Danforth Music Hall. They were very loud! Loudest band I've ever seen, & growing up in TO, I've seen a few. After the gig, everything sounded like ummf...mmmf...mmmrrruummm...umfamnffn? I think my ears rang for at least 4 days...
I saw them on the Another Perfect Day tour summer, '83, TO
Margrit Kendrick only for a week?
@@stnz908 Like me when i saw Ghost in 2019, its actually the loudest concert i have ever seen. Sadly i never had the chance to see the boys in Motörhead:(
@@stnz908 Saw both shows they did at the Danforth that night. Talked to Lemmy on the tour bus and showed him a Hawkwind flag we had made and gave him a Motorhead flag we had also made. .The next show they did was at the Coliseum at the CNE grounds the following year that was filmed by City TV and was Fast Eddies second to last show. Next up in Toronto Motorhead history was the Masonic Temple show with Robbo on guitar. We were backstage for that one and got the band to sign our Motorhead flag. That was 1983. Did not see them again until another Masonic Temple show in 1986 with i think Slayer on the bill. I gave Lemmy a Dammned flag that year and he told me at the next show i saw him at that he had given the flag to Dave Vanian the singer of the Dammned. Also had the good fortune to be backstage at the Maple Leaf Gardens show when they opened for Alice Cooper. I had just come from work at the Eaton Center and was wearing a suit and tie and Lemmy says to me .....Look at you all grown up.....got to drink Jack Daniels with Lemmy as we watched Alice Cooper for about 10 minutes. Was also fortunate to be backstage with Hawkwind at the Toronto shows from 1989 thru 95.
RIP, Larry Wallis... :(
Yezzir it was pretty neat to belatedly realize that that was the Kings Of Oblivion Pink Fairies bloke with the whole "Pinkwind" thing. Nothin against Lucas Fox but when they do City Kids we would almost just need King Of Oblivion freakin' Russell drummer, cryin shame the recording cuts off
What an amazing find! Never heard this before. Good stuff, thx for uploading.
This has Larry Wallis's fingerprints all over it... The extended jam sections are very Pink Fairies. Excellent!
Literally. The jammy fingerprints all over the tape explains the sound quality perfectly.
I am so happy to have found this! Even though the sound quality is rough you can still feel the power and volume they are playing at.... Lost Johnny sounds monsterous! For their first ever gig this is F ing fantastic.
Saw them in January 1988 in Charlotte. Rock n Roll tour. Phil Taylor was back
I was at this show....Lemmy RIP.
Hi, do you have any memory of an Intro tape before Motorhead played?
@@couchslouch13 No I don't, it was such a long time ago. I have other memories of the gig, but not the intro tape.
I read some years back in an official book on Motorhead that the first gig had intro tape of Adolf Hitler played so this seems legitimate.
Absolute gold. Suddenly occurred to me to search for this and here it is. Wow!
They sounded like Hawkwind on steriods in those early days. I don't think Dave Brock fully realized Lemmy's potential to write great songs. It's a shame what happened. It worked out for Lemmy in the end though...but then again Dave is still alive haha!
Dave Brock's longevity will never match Lemmy's impression on rock 'n' roll. Hawkwind were great, especially with Lem, but Motorhead's influence dwarfs Hawkwind's.
Yeah now, because of Pepsi festivals.. But Hawkwind are fuckin' massive buddy.
Both bands are great, imo.
Motorhead's been a big influence on punk, hardcore, & metal since the '70s. Lemmy's bass playing is the blueprint.
Hawkwind's influence on psychedelic rock is massive. They were more known in Europe than in north America. They were never big here. I was buying their import vinyl & none of my friends had ever heard of Hawkwind.
I actually discovered Hawkwind through Motorhead.
but who do you think of first, motorhad, or hawkind?
Both hawkwind and Motörhead are both as good as each other’
I will be bold and say I love nostalgia and this is a place to start. Thank you to the poster! Lemmy needed to rid himself of these guys and the whole Hawkwind thing though. Once he did, I think Motörhead was born. He needed Phil and Eddie’s help. They were all like minded. This is amazing to hear though.
Gem of a Jam!!!! Lucas kickin' it down! Larry, is also amazing on guitar.
Lost Johnny was such a memorable song
I was at the Winning Post in Twickenham. Just remember people shouting “turn it up” throughout the show and people standing with their heads in the bass bins.
Memorable show, hardly captured on this recording.
The fucking big bang of Motörhead's universe.
Ya were in the right place in right time fine and nicely you are real rocker's 😜🤪♿
Thank you indeed. What a delicious find.
unbelievable... someone do a vinyl bootleg of this please!!!
And he never played that song better than that 😍
Astonishing
Many thanks for posting
Larry Wallis should have stayed in Motorhead. What a phenomenal guitarist
Larry was never where he should have been somehow. If he'd made a few more albums like Kings of oblivion with the Pink Fairies.... 😗 When Russell Hunter of the Pinks was asked if there was anything he still wanted to do he replied yes id like to play with larry Wallis again. 😔
Are you fucking serious lad?
@@tedmac8049 as serious as a heart attack my goldfish suffered from when I was about 2 and a half years old
Motorhead plays Velvet Underground…wow how cool😎
Dazzlingly fuckin' "dirty". Beautiful; thanks!
Legend. Idol.
On the dole pissing down with rain triumph bonnies rockers MOTORHEAD THIS IS ENGLAND. The Americans just don't get it.
Some of us did. Rock and roll started over here, after all. Liked Hawkwind, Saw a write up with Lemmy saying that Blue Cheer and the MC5 (two "Yank" bands) were big influences for his new band, so I bought their first album in the import section as soon as I could hunt down a copy. Been a fan ever since...
@@MutethatBozo
Believe me you wouldn't want to live here in 1975.
Shit hole.
No one could afford a strat
Let alone a Harley.
Fast EDDIE borrowed his.
America was worlds away.
I know LEMMY based Motorhead on Mc5
The Damned covered looking at you.
For me rock n roll is chuck berry.
In the day I loved strats
American cars my favourite.
Pontiac fire bird .
Stingray
Ford Thunderbird
I like Indians. The bike.
70s bodybuilding.
Choppers
The list goes on.
25 years before I could afford any of it.
Thats...ROCK-N-ROLL! They came at ya like a cannonball! You want rock!?
Seems to be some confusion over the intro tape of this show? From iMotorhead.com;
From Stefano Loi (regarding urban legend of speech intro to this show):
“They never used the Adolf Hitler speech you hear on the beginning of many copies of this recording. It’s a fake prerecording added many, many years ago by some guy who had a copy of the tape. Lemmy told me, he was horrified by that”.
“Lemmy was an anarchist, he collected memorabilia of the wars of every country. It is true that he also had Israeli stuff from Jewish soldiers too in his collection. I wanted to play the first show with him once but he said no because he told me they played badly that night and the set list wasn’t good either. Then I asked him about the intro and he confirmed to me that they didn’t use any intro at all.”
“Also, I was in contact with a guy that attended the show, he sent me the scan of the ticket stub as proof, he also told me himself the band didn’t use any intro. This is one urban legend that is FALSE!
however, from Lemmy's own Autobiography 'White Line Fever' - page 99-100;
"All the bands in those days had Intro tapes, and since I've always been a World War II fanatic, we used a recording from Germany of marching feet and people yelling 'Sieg Heil!' It just sounded really powerful and incredibly cold, all those feet smashing on the German cobblestones, that bromp, bromp! tromping sound. That was our outro too.."
SJW woketards trying to sanitize everything, even irony and shock value.
Desperate woke revisionism
My mates call me Lost Johnny 🤪😜very great
Its more HAWKWIND than Motörhead, but I love it
41 years ago today!
49 now and hot as ever
LEMMY. FAST EDDIE .PHILTHY.
RIP....
BROS
FTW..
Larry Wallis (Pink Fairies) on lead?
Himself
band never would have made it like this , luckily philthy and eddie came along and helped make it right
Fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!
They did a number at roundhouse in 1969, "we are the road crew" there was a cartoon in the music papers, "who is this band" reply "don't know but they do a good edition of we are the road crew
Not '69 but '79 !
again? Wasn't it 59?
Definitely wasn’t ‘69. ‘...Road Crew’ wasn’t written until early 1980.
👍👍
The ORIGINAL original Motorhead (kind of like Doug and Dinsdale Piranha's OTHER other operation) 😁which was comprised of Lemmy, Larry Wallis and Lucas Fox. I've read that some of their earliest shows were opening for Blue Oyster Cult.
Yepp, they opened for BÖC, were treated very badly and stole the umlaut "ö" for revenge.
@@GRINHELL Ha ha never knew that part! 😂🤣😅
Remmy キルミスターのMOTORHEADはNice Great👋
I had then recently turned 12, it would take me another two years to actually hear ''White line fever'' for the first time on nighttime national fm. I had found the band with the Sound.... This is no ''henhouse recordings'', this is Motorhead at the Roundhouse, freaking 48 years ago ! Technically, Lemmy was still in his 20s (29). How's that for RnR History?
This is better than their later efforts. Love the Guitar style
R.I.P.🙏☮
Память на века всем ушедшим рокерам рок 🎸 рольщикам рокершам рок 🎸 навсегда
I always wondered who chose Waiting for the Man to be on the set? I’m guessing Larry Wallis 🤔
Guitar solo on Leaving Here is great.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Lemmy was voted out of the band, he didn't quit - Dave voted to keep him...
Support to jazz-proggers Greenslade here. I wonder if they knew they were witnessing the birth of a legend.
I was at the gig - had gone to see Greenslade. I don't think anyone there knew we were witnessing the birth of a legend. Fairly certain it was the start of my tinnitus though!!
@@simonknights7526 Ha! Ha! Nice one.
"Silver Machine" fand leider nie so das Interesse daß es verdient hätte.
Is this real first show ?......Thank you for good pictures
The real motörhead ❤
I dont reckon that intro is fake. Different times.
I guess 4 people need to be sucker punched 🥊🤣
Rip Motörhead
Fucking bad ass.
They supported the Groundhogs in 1969, everyone was asking me why I was there when Eric Clapton was playing up the road, and I forgot to ask them in return why they were there, and then this band came on and did one number, "We are the road crew" fxxxxxx great
Not '69 but '79 !
Joanpinchof Salt coolest comment on youtube about Motörhead I've ever read
obviously, unless Sam Gopal wrote the Road crew tune...
Never heard such bollocks. Motorhead weren't around in 69, this line up didn't exist in 79 and We are the road crew wasn't released til about 81. Stay off the drugs Doug! The reason why you didn't go to see Clapton if you can't remember was because he's crap.
Never heard such dumb shit before , Motörhead in '69 , back in '69 he was closer to his roadie career with Hendrix.

Original the supergroup Motorhead, 2/3 still alive today.
0/3. It was 1/3 right after lem died
@@Tune-ju3po Lucas Fox is still alive at least early 2022.
@@marguskiis7711 Exactly - from the 1st formation he's the single one alive; from the second formation, all departed, including Lemmy of course, from the 1st.
Like them or not ?This Is Real Rock "n" Roll. An Don't You Forget It. Tosser!!!
100% rock'n'roll
anyone know if there is a cleaner sounding version of this? It sounds like it was recorded from the bathroom.
yeah! i've got dvd of this gig in HD. whana see it?
Ha ha. Yea i have this show on hd blu ray. Come on, ITS. THEIR FIRST SHOW IN 1975! ♠go listen to lady gaga. ♠You dont get it. God bless MOTORHEAD ♠♠♠ Haha♠♠ ♠♠RIP LEM.♠♠
♠♠Very cool. THANK YOU. SILVER MACHINE BY THE ORIGANAL, ORIGANAL, ♠MOTORHEAD.♠ Nice.♠ Its all a treat really.♠ RIP LEMMY!♠
Queen Bean ua-cam.com/video/tOTC26Lv8nI/v-deo.html not the same gig but same lineup and same set list
Come off it, it’s amazing we even have this at all!! Someone made an effort to go there and sneak in with whatever technology they had to record this priceless moment in history (I imagine this would have been recorded on a ‘shoebox’ tape recorder with a mono mic with a high frequency bandwidth up to a measly 5 kHz).
It’s well good enough though and boy can you hear the power! It’s also a great insight on how they played in the beginning. Larry Wallis really shows how beautifully he could play.
A real ghost from the misty past when a loaf of bread was about 4 pence and everyone was in in black and white!! We are extremely lucky indeed.
RIP Lemmy and Larry.
Were they called "Bastards" when they first got together ?
+Philip Parsons Maybe
+Philip Parsons no
Originally Lemmy wanted to call the band 'Bastards' but was talked out of it and settled on Motorhead :-)
It was actually BASTARD without the S on the end. bastards is the name of the album;.
Oh by the way Motorhead played ROCK AND ROLL and for anyone who says any different look at all the quotes from Lemmy, he stated specifically they is what they played and that they had a greater affinity with PUNK then heave metal, thrash or any other genre of metal.
Jam Jar Totally agree
Sure it’s an abysmal recording. It’s also absolutely incredible. The BIG BANG from whence a million ships sailed AMEN AMEN
The stockholders and shareholders know so much they should have no problem running a factory,,, well go to work gentleman nothing like opportunity
High fidelity digital recording, uh! No but it's motorhead and play rock'n'roll
Someone added the Hitler's speech at start... not on the original tape ;)
it fucking sucks. Needs to be cut out.
woden20 a big part of what??
woden20 what're you even talking about?
Fuck Hitler my opinion is diversity is a collection of the interested! A colidiouscope of personality is a universal rainbow of creativity!
They promised to be the dirtiest band, hence Adolf speech for chock value. The punk movement a year later seems just ridiculous now. Motörhead was punk, as were Pink Fairies, Edgar Broughton Band and Third World War.
The first Motorhead is the best , On Parole is also good. After they lost the Hawkwind style their music lacked the Same atmosphere. Songs like Metropolis, Deadman Tell No Tales, and Iron Fist still contained the Hawkwind influence though
Lotta folks talkin' out their arse here.
hello
Does anyone know the actual date?
July 20th 1975
@@jacestephenweatherall1732r u a big Motörhead fan, I honestly would never guessed you listen to Motörhead by looking at ur channel
@@nocturnal6311 you’re right I am a big Motörhead fan
@@nocturnal6311 and also I read the description
where was this?
The Roundhouse. Where Overkill was recorded.
They opened with a soundclip of Adolf Hitler, wut?
Was that Hitler introducing the show ?😳
It can be any ''Adolf'', as the voice says.
a few months later will come The Sex Pistols
Lemmy only left Hawkwind because the guys in the band all remained faithful to Stacia. Lemmy knew the only way to break that spell without horned winged daemons tearing him to shreds was to leave the band . He wanted 1000s of women not just Stacia. Even though Hawkwind was the greatest and Heaviest band on Earth the sacred bond had to be broken. Sadly he formed Motorhead, and Hawkwind quit playing Metal style songs.
Bro Lemmy got booted from hawkwind when he got caught with drugs crossing the border in Toronto and had to do a couple weeks.
@@Judemarie No he quit because he got busted . Anyway he only liked Blue Iranian Heroin, and the guys in Hawkwind wouldn't try anything but Turkish Black Tar Heroin. Lemmy said that the Satanic rituals with Hawkwind were always half assed. They could never buy enough PCP to last the week. Ian had to find his own PCP connection, and always stocked up just in case they had any problems getting hooked up with some decent dust in some townships. They set him up to get busted because he wouldn't supply them with drugs as well as himself. Brock was totally pissed and didn't care about anything except finding a band member who had disposable money to provide drugs and alcohol for the band and crew
I am very happy that he founded Motörhead. Most unique Band in the Universe!
It seems that these companies don't need the stockholders the shareholders the CEOs or any of these other assholes they can run fine with the Employees.
Guys...!! This is gonna sound insane but....
Earth is demonstrably level contained and motionless AND space doesn't even exist !!!!we
Is nobody noticing the Nazi speech recording in the beginning?
Yep, and ????
@@graycoll5783 It would be cool to find the exact recording
Shure we recocnised but ingnor just cause its Lemmy and no Nazishit Band
@@graycoll5783 what do you mean and....fucking bloody bastard Nazi . fucking bloody bastard
holy shit took me a sec to realize they were playing Hitlers famous speech before they started playing haha
I honestly hope that lemmy put that on. Like no way it’s edited in .
Sounds like shit,but it's MOTÖRHEAD! That means it's GREAT!
✠Adolf Hitler✠ opens the show for the first Motörhead concert ever! hilarious. ♠️🤘🏻
Little known fact - The Austrian painter collected Motorhead merch lol
