Here's the high tech bass equipment I used - Ibanez import bass, Fender Rumble 40 and a 1980's era Arion Metal Master. All signals sent via XLR line out.

Listen to the crazy cymbal/high hat splash at 0:23 seconds without ever giving up the main beat. Phenomenal drumming!!!!

Ya know I'm kidding, right? You're a very talented musician. It's a pleasure to witness this. I can just feel the vibe and intensity of Ace Of Spades as it was meant to be. The vocals on this one is even more amazing than your nicely done "Stone Cold".
Awesome...

Thank you, Man...My drummer colleague says I need to start a Motorhead tribute and call it "Knucklehead," because that's his nickname for me.
The energy of this song just inspires me, Man. Your comment on "vibe and intensity" is so correct. I was thinking when I did the vocals, Lemmy pushed so hard to perform in the last months of his life, and I hoped to capture some of that desperation and determination in this recording...

NIce to see you embracing the "less is More" philosophy Bobby Boy
You know something??? Back in the early 1980's, I was banging out Motorhead tunes with a Danelectro through a JTM30 - that's all I had.
I feel like I'm just going back to that...

Hey, Guys...Tracked the solo this morning and balanced out the mix a little - about as much as I can with this software. The track still needs final mastering, and for that, I will be taking it to a colleagues facility.
I tried to stick pretty close to Fast Eddie's lead arrangement, but still play with fury and not worry about all the bends being in tune. My hope is the solo fits the energy level of the song.

This is why I love YouTube. My introduction to Motörhead was while watching The Young Ones back in the early 80s:

My Introduction to Motorhead was Motorhead on a stereo. The way it is meant to be.
