Hawkwind - Motorhead

This track is from 1975 it was the B-side to Kings of Speed. And it was also the last song Lemmy wrote for Hawkwind before he was sacked and went on to form the band Motörhead with Pink Fairies guitarist Larry Wallis. I know on Motörheads first album and their album On Parole they do this song and some other Hawkwind and Pink Fairies songs.

Whitesnake - Crying In The Rain

Whitesnake - Live at Ludwigshafen Germany 1983

The 1th of July Mel Galley passed away

He was a former member of the Hard rock bands Whitesnake, Trapeze, Finders Keepers and Phenomena. He was born in Cannock, Staffordshire, England. While being a member of Whitesnake, he badly injured his arm in an accident at the fairground in Germany, and had to leave the band, as he was unable to play guitar because of a nerve damage as result of incompetent surgery. Later he became known for playing with "The Claw", a specially developed spring and wire device fitted to his hand which enabled him to play guitar again. His songwriting and guitar playing skills had a major impact on Tom Galley's and Wilfried F. Rimensberger's Phenomena success.

On February 7, 2008 Galley revealed that he was suffering from esophagus cancer, and had only a short time to live.

RIP Mel

Peter Tosh - Johnny Be Goode

Peter Tosh, born Winston Hubert McIntosh (October 9, 1944 – September 11, 1987) was the guitarist in the original Wailing Wailers, a reggae musician, and a trailblazer for the Rastafari movement.

Tosh grew up in the Kingston, Jamaica slum of Trenchtown. He stood out because of his height at 6 feet, 4 inches. His short-fuse temper and unveiled sarcasm usually kept him in trouble, earning him the nickname Stepping Razor after a song written by Joe Higgs, an early mentor. He began to sing and learn guitar at a young age, inspired by the American stations he could pick up on his radio. After an illustrious career with the Wailers and as a solo musician, he was murdered at his home. Though robbery was officially said to be the motivation behind Tosh's death, many believe that there were ulterior motives to the killing, citing that nothing was taken from the house.


Just listen and enjoy!!
