Another addition to Motorhead's already burgeoning live-album discography, King Biscuit Flower Hour preserves a show the group recorded for the syndicated radio program on August 10, 1983, in Queens, N.Y. 1997 King Biscuit Flower Hour Records. release.
Motorhead: Lemmy Kilmister (vocals, bass); Brian Robertson (guitar); Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor (drums).
Recorded live at L'Amour East, Queens, New York on August 10, 1983. Includes liner notes by Gary Graff.
The harbingers of British metal's new wave at the dawn of the 1980s, Motorhead toughened the hard-rock sound of the previous decade with a sheath of biker black leather and a broth of intoxicants. Collectables Records has put together a sampling of their best songs performed live, with an interview with mole-sporting leader Lemmy as a chaser. As a live band, Motorhead's black tar rumble takes on an even more chaotic feel, while classics like "Back at the Funny Farm" and "Marching Off to War" acquire a rugged new life.
Another addition to Motorhead's already burgeoning live-album discography, King Biscuit Flower Hour preserves a show the group recorded for the syndicated radio program on August 10, 1983, in Queens, N.Y. Original guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke had already departed, and former Thin Lizzy member Brian Robertson had taken his place for the Another Perfect Day album, which the band was supporting here. Despite Robertson's greater technical skill, this wasn't the most inspired time of Motorhead's career (both in terms of material and performance), and since the fidelity isn't quite as good here as on many other King Biscuit albums, only more devoted fans need apply. ~ Steve Huey
Although 1983's Motorhead line-up (bassist Lemmy, guitarist Brian Robertson, and drummer Phil Taylor) proved to be the most short-lived of the band's lengthy career, a few live sets have surfaced on CD, most recently KING BISCUIT FLOWER HOUR. The eight track disc features selections from the often overlooked ANOTHER PERFECT DAY album, recorded live in New York on August 10, 1983.
The sound quality is a noticeable step below hi-fi, but spirited renditions of such rockers as "Iron Horse/Born to Lose," "Another Perfect Day," and "Shine" prove to be standouts. An interview with Motorhead leader/founder Lemmy is also included.

If you were around in the late seventies and early 1980's you probably were aware of an energetic neo-trend that grew up along side and within the Punk and so-called New-Wave Rock'n'roll scene. It was a revival of what might be considered the first real rebellious teenage music genre that arose in the 1950's. It was called Rockabilly and right in the heart of it all was Finn & The Sharks. The band had a reputation for rocking hard and had an enthusiastic following whenever and wherever they played. They recorded a four song EP entitled "Innercity Rockabilly" on their own label, Rebel Records (no relation to the Bluegrass label out of Charlottesville VA.) There was also a video of the title song that featured the band performing at the old Lonestar Café and at The Office which was their home base in Nyack NY. It was shown on MTV and also on the fledgling cable network Showtime. It got a lot of play in the club scene especially on the 'rockabilly nights' that became an obligatory part of the club calendar for a few years. Finn & the Sharks do not fit neatly into the 'rockabilly' category. Their influences are broad and deep. Along with rockabilly the band could shift to blues, swing, soul and roots rock without losing that element of youthful exuberance that marked the music of the 50's and early '60's. One of the songs on the EP, "The Wheels Start Turning," has a distinct ska beat and features Jimmy's honking baritone sax. It was later re-recorded and released as a 12" and 7" 45 RPM vinyl single on John Hammond's short-lived HME Label. It garnered some airplay and was played on Dick Clark's "American Bandstand". Throughout the early '80's the band played dates with the likes of Dave Edmunds, Wilson Picket, Sam & Dave, Robert Gordon, Sleepy LaBeefe, Commander Cody, Asleep At The Wheel, Kinky Freidman, The Sun Rhythm Section featuring Sonny Burgess & DJ Fontana and many others. Steven and Eddie backed up Carl Perkins in the feature film, "The Other Side Of Nashville," while Jimmy backed up Bo Diddley, Freddy Cannon and members of Dion's Belmonts on a single called, "Let's Put The Fun Back In Rock'n'roll". One Friday night the late great ...
