Motörhead - the chase is better than the catch, Comeback of the year.."Eddie Clarke"

Live at Brixton Academy, London, England, October 22, 2000 25th Anniversary

[@711honved]

Eddie Clarke was one of Britain's great Blues guitarists & a hugely underrated talent. His contribution to Motorhead was just immense. Missed by so many!

[@eliashhtorres]

Wow this is so true

[@JustAdude291]

Fast Eddie was super underrated man. He's really an inspiration to me.. He had some good stuff in Fastaway too, and it's a shame he's pretty unheard of. I have respect for Phil Campbell too for continuing that era of motorhead with us.

[@scotty193]

The day he left was the day I kinda departed from Motorhead. Every gig when I bought ticket was on Fast Eddies side.........loved that man..........loved them all but Eddie was coolest.

[@artmv1149]

Well said!

[@scottlosey4978]

His contribution to music in general is unparalleled! Top 5 guitar player ever...RIP Fast Eddie....goddamn you are missed

[@DmageCase]

Fast Eddie was just here to remind us how Motörhead must sound and seem. I love the guy, a true Motörheader.

[@lomaalexmichaelm.8902]

DmageCase To me. He'll always be the sound of Motorhead.

[@richardlucero165]

And still rocking the bullet belt. I wish I could have met him, he seemed a great fellow

[@toddnimmock4851]

I was lucky enough to see Fast Eddie in Fastway.

[@floydkingi4364]

One of the classic lineup

[@guttersnippeesmithers3905]

Wonder if fast Eddie wasn’t comfortable on there knowing past differences and phill taking his place ??

[@SaccidanandaSadasiva]

the holy trinity of Lemmy, Clarke, Taylor, made the holy trinity of Overkill, Bomber, Ace of Spades

Epic. Rest in Power Lemmy and Fast Eddie.

[@DunmoresMovieMania]

It's a sad fact that the classic Motorhead lineup are all gone: Lemmy, Eddie and Philthy. fuck death.

[@davesaunders59]

There surely can be nothing better in life than listening to Motorhead!

[@BruceLeeKingoftheSewers]

That's absolutely true

[@julianmoore8915]

Not listening to motorhead

[@williamdalgliesh1460]

Great to see Eddie with his bullet belt on. Fek I miss those days.

[@fierrote]

No disrespect, I like Phil Campbell guitar style and playing, but he can't achieve that same sound and style that only Fast Eddie Clarke provided Motorhead. Eddie Clarke is the best guitarist Motorhead ever had and Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor their best drummer, with Lemmy they were the best and greatest version of Motorhead. I got to see them play way back in the 80's at the California Jam Festival.

[@11gokey]

Yeah, couldn't agree more. Absolutely the best line up. Peace

[@hinjurock]

+fierrote Phil and Eddie fucking ruled.

[@hinjurock]

Mark B. Stone Technically, but his style didn't fit the band at all.

[@Odhil95]

I actually believe that Eddie was a better Mötorhead guitarist. I like Phil Campbell, but Eddie gave Mötorhead the unique guitar sound they had, and I believe it was more accurate for what Lemmy wanted to achieve with the band (it seems both Lemmy and Eddie were fond of blues). Phil gave Mötorhead a more metal sound... Ace of Spades sounded rougher, but it wasn't the same. I actually like both, but you end up missing the old stuff too.

[@hinjurock]

Odhil95 Phil's lead playing started to get more bluesy and groove-oriented as the years went by, but Eddie was the king of that style.

[@JamesWhite-vh3jr]

Saw them at Glasgow barrowland a couple of times, sensational band, God rest Lemmy, Phil and Eddie ❤

[@timothyhyde]

I'm immortalizing Lemmy by cranking the shit out of this awesome tune. Who's with me?

[@pipevillaran]

Eddie had that unique hippie sound and vibe which made Motorhead unique

[@wholelottadc]

Rip Eddie, and thanks for the music. Your legacy lives on....forever

And now the six million dollar question. Did Motörhead as a four piece sound even better ?? Eddie Clark’s guitar playing is raw and tuneful

[@ivorharden]

RIP Eddie

[@bernardoa.garciah.2316]

Phil is a really good guitar player, but Eddie has the magic touch, somehow. He was a huge part of Motorhead's classic sound

[@timothydraper3687]

Yes, I thought Phil felt upstaged when Eddie came on.

[@MrDigaods]

R.I.P EDDIE !!!

[@andrewdutler9249]

I’ve always gotten a laugh out of the part at 0:50 when Eddie is introduced and he comes out like “let’s have a hug Lem” and Lemmy’s like “a handshake will do just fine thank you”...lol.

Kudos to Phil for not being a prima donna and being cool about it. Was in music for 40 years and have seen it all.

[@wolfdog7265]

Right, but Phil doesn’t strike me as that kind of guy. He didn’t need to. After Wurzel left I’d kind of hoped they’d take Eddie back on board. Together Phil and Ed sounded big as proven here and Eddie was clearly enjoying himself. Don’t know if he would have coped with the Lemmy tour schedule tho. Eddie suffered one of the biggest regrets suffered in music history being kicked out.

[@smithpm81]

outstanding

[@stevenschocket1658]

At this point I'll take Any Live Version !!!!

[@PunisherFan04]

I think Eddie is the best guitarist in Motörhead. But this song is definitely my favorite from Ace of Spades. So sad Eddie left Motörhead in '82.

[@GrayWoIf]

He was gonna leave eventually him and lemmy where getting in fights all the time and Eddie was quitting the band every other week or so until one day he actually did leave and lemmy replaced him within a week.

[@lomaalexmichaelm.8902]

GrayWoIf Lemmy actually kicked him out because eddie didn't want to prodyce the wendy o williams album.

All respect too Lemmy who let the current member start Even thou Fast Eddie is there ♠️♠️🤘

[@buddymckay3486]

Lemmy, Fast Eddie and Philty animal was the best line up in my opinion. It was kinda like AC/DC with Bon Scott and Mark Evans.

[@Heatfarmer]

No match at all for the sound and feeling. I don't want to put him down, but Eddie and Phil defined the sound of Motörhead. Its ok to like the newer stuff :) But its not better than the first 3-4 albums, not even close! Hope you don't think that Brian Johnson is better than Bon Scott in AC/DC either? ;-)

[@anemoia2661]

Mark Evans? You mean DAVE Evans, right? If you are on about Dave, then I wouldn't even class him a part of AC/DC! He done a few pub gigs and recorded one single that went nowhere and was then booted out for being an absolute princess, Angus's own words...

[@RPNization]

reece callow i'm for sure he means Mark Evans who played Bass Guitar on the following albums: T.N.T, Dirty deeds done dirt cheap, Let there be rock, and some songs on the international High voltage album.

[@docksudavellaneda9173]

Grande eddie

[@ngelschlanker2788]

RIP "Fast Eddie", a authentic guitar hero.

[@mnmmmmmm]

one of my heros as simple as that

[@Theplum93]

To this day I maintained that fast. Eddie wasn't the most technical or greatest guitar player of all time. But he probably has the best tone. He was a true master of understanding his own personal musical limits and making the absolute most out of that. Plus his 70s all wood and brass stratocaster was so damn cool.

[@MichaelPersson789]

Lemmy kept the band going with younger guys keeping him young in the meantime my favourite fast Eddie song is iron fist that was motorhead at their peak and they could play. Phil and Mickey deserve respect and lemmy always praised both of them saying they were better than philty and fast Eddie I'd say they are all great musicians

[@artmv1149]

Fast Eddie!!

[@thanwu1065]

I mean seriously!!! Phil Campbell should have sat this one out and let Eddie do his thing. The outro solo should have been EDDIE's.. I wanted to hear Eddie solo! "Come back of the year"???? It's more like the only comback that really matters! No disrepect to Phil Campbell and I feel sorry for him but he will always be a shadow. LEMMY, seriously, get Phil Taylor and EDDIE back and give us a REAL Motorhead album. Been a long time since Iron Fist. Again no disrespect to Wurzel and the boys, there was some real good shit there from 84-present but after Wurzel left it was never the same. I dunno, without Eddie it doesn't sound like Motorhead to me. Yeah I wasn't there, so what? I am still capable of making an objective decision by listening to Motorhead music and basically saying anything Eddie touched in Motorhead was pure GOLD. Period! There is a reason why Kilmister-Clarke-Taylor is reffered to as the golden line up! Cause it is!!!!!!

[@scotty193]

You posted a long time ago but I am so behind you in that. That was Fast Eddies moment who got run over basically by Campbell. Was not cool on his or Lemmy's books to do that.See my comment if you can Fast Eddie was always my fav forever.

[@channelone1517]

to be fair. Phil had to hold it all together musically, live, in the last year of Motorhead. Top respect to him for that.
