4.0 out of 5 stars They're not bonus tracks, May 26, 2006

This review is from: No Sleep at All: Live (Audio CD)

Although the remastered reissues claim to feature 2 bonus tracks they are NOT bonus tracks to the original CD release, on GWR, in 1988. That featured two tracks - 'Stay Clean' and 'Metropolis' - additional to the LP and cassette version but had them in their rightful places in the set ('Doctor Rock/ Stay Clean/ Traitor/ Metropolis') and not tagged on to the end of the LP version, which we have here. In addition, the artwork in the reissues is likely taken from the GWR CD booklet rather than the original: it is thus a little fuzzy and scaled down in comparison, although it does add some contemporary press clippings. The reissues may be remastered but my ears can't hear it on this particular title and personally I've yet to be convinced that any album needs a remaster when it had a contemporary release, 'Orgasmatron' being Motorhead's first CD release for a new album. Generally Essential/ Sanctuary have done a great job on the reissues of the back catalogue, particularly the new 2CD sets with live tracks and BBC archive material, but this is their weakest effort and I would suggest tracking down the original. In terms of SQ, I personally hear no difference between the original and the remaster.

This is one of the first Motorhead albums I bought, way back in '88. Not a bad live album. Though the sound quality isn't that great, there's a good selection of songs. Standards like "Ace of Spades" and "Overkill". Also included is one of my favorite MH tunes: "Just 'Cos You Got the Power..." (I couldn't find the original version until I got the re-issue of Rock 'n' Roll).
If you're a big Motorhead fan you should pick this up. It's Rocks! \m/

I can't count how many times I used to listen to this album on my old cassette player while going for a run. Just hearing the samples again makes my lungs burn! The straightforward raw intensity of this album makes it great to vent frustrations out in the gym. Tasting a minute metallic tinge of blood in your mouth brought on by a hard workout is the only appropriate side effect when listening to this album!
