Which studio album would you recommend to a person who has never listened to Motorhead before?
This is not necessarily your favourite album but an album in which you think the listener will like straight away.

Rockin vickers, Sam gopal, first 6 from Hawkwind, all 5 from Firies, than On parole - The World is ours vol 2. There is no other way if that person want to know everything about Motorhead.

A mate of mine is starting to get into Motorhead and has a few of the bands albums. He doesn't like the band when they are 'foot to the floor' as he puts it, and so far his favourite album is APD. That said he only has Overkill, AoS, APD, 1916, Bastards and a couple of compilations, so needs to check them out more in my opinion. I would always tell anyone to get Overkill. If you don't like that you might as well not bother with Motorhead IMO.

Agree with Lard..
But since there's so many differnt sounds on the records I suggest you check what he likes and plays that kind of Motörtune. If he likes melody it's APD; if it is heavier try Inferno or KOD, If it's hip-hop tie him to a chair and play them all loud and over and over and over agsin...

I don't think that's such a good idea for someone who's hearing Motorhead for the first time. I think It'd give the new listener the wrong idea as those Pre-Motorhead days sound quite different to the Motorhead we know and love and may put them off. Good to look into that stuff if you become a 'Headcase' and want to hear the evolution of the band though. Agree with Lard..

I'd agree with Lard on this too, you can't really go wrong with Overkill. They still play songs from it and it's not too far removed from a lot of the later stuff. Yeah a good starter I reckon. @ Juggernaught You made me LOL with the "Tie him to a chair" comment

I disagree Toast. I think it is very important to understand Motorhead music and why they are rnr and not metal to do like I said. Few people which listened Motorhead in my house where so amazed to enter in Motorhead world like this. They were so happy. They liked hawkwind, Fairies and On Parole a lot. They said they never looked on Motorhead o that way and they think I'm right, that's the most natural way to go into Motorhead. If you listened Motorhead this way you will have completely different approach to them than someone who started listen Motorhead from Sacrifice album for example. This dude who started from Sacrifice will probably think they are metal or something, or something else and he will not know that Motorhead started from Hawkwind Fairies style which is some other world. I think chronology approach is most natural and best approach.

I'm with Toast on this. I started out with AoS and Iron Fist back in the early 80's and it all grew from there, but I don't think it matters at all where you begin. I can't say Hawkwind or Pink Fairies have ever floated my boat to be honest, does that mean I like Motorhead any less? And if I had started with them, I would question whether I would have got into Motorhead's music. Besides does it matter what people think Motorhead are, as long as they like their music? When I'm shoulder to shoulder in a gig, I don't stop to worry if the sweaty fucker next to me is in it for punk or rock n roll or heavy metal, just as long as he/she is having a good time.

Don't know Lard, I have a different experience. Example: There is one band called Elektricni Orgazam. They played psychedelic rock but they have a classic rock albums too. So, few my friends heard two albums from them, classic rock style, those things were before internet so they couldn't check them out more. So they thought they are rnr band etc... later they got in their hands first two albums and they are pretty much very psychedelic and they don't like psychedelic rock so they became very disappointed in this band because they got wrong picture inside their heads about this band. That's what I'm talking about when I talk about Motorhead. I think it's important to understand the band what it is. Not listening the music and don't understand what you listening or have a wrong picture about band. However, if some dude is metal fan you will give him Kingdom of the worm or Red Raw or something like that and than he will had a wrong picture about Motorhead and than we will have another million time conversation what Motorhead plays rnr or metal. Specialy if this dude had nice childhood and grew up in wrong belief that Motorhead is metal, how can you explain to him that he is wrong? You can't, I mean he does not want to know that all his childhood he had wrong picture about band. I'm thinkin about those kind of things a lot. I even last year wrote a book about Motorhead but it is on Serbo-Croat language. In it they are those psychological things about listening music too, when you read any book you had pictures in your head, when you listen some band you have pictures about this band etc.. and many other things...

When I'm shoulder to shoulder in a gig, I don't stop to worry if the sweaty fucker next to me is in it for punk or rock n roll or heavy metal, just as long as he/she is having a good time. Nicely put Lardy, That's exactly how I see it too. Someone shouldn't have to wade through a back catalogue of material that is unlike the band's regular stuff prior to listening to a Motorhead album proper in order to 'understand' or enjoy it. If I'd have heard the Rockin' Vicars prior to hearing Motorhead for the first time, it would never have encouraged me to seek out a Motorhead album. Their stuff is pretty uninspiring (for me at least) As for the whole Rock'n'Roll/Metal arguement BlackAdder, don't you ever get tired of it?! I listen to all forms of music, I couldn't give a poop what label you put to any of it. As long as I like it, that's all that matters. I listen to stuff like Static-X and can't fathom out what the hell Wayne's singing about half the time, but love listening to them anyway. I like Rammestein too and don't speak a word of German. Actually, I'd probably enjoy them less if I did... You don't have to 'understand' where a band is coming from to enjoy it.

someone new to Motörhead (or ANY other band) certainly does not need to know anything about "the history of the band". You don't listen to any history, you listen too music. You don't even have to care about the names of the band members, number of played instruments or whatever.
Fully agree to what the others said before - Overkill is the one to start with!

Agree with you Toast regarding Rammstein. I do know that you shouldn't Büch Dich...
I have heard Sam Gopal, Rocking Vicars Opal Butterfly and Hawkwind, none is as good as Motörhead. I wouldn't recommend any of them to someone who is curious about Motörhead, no need to for beginners to "understand" music...

I think this is a difficult debate. It has to be an album that represents the band, something with a variation that compiles all band's 'brands'. I'm still stuck between Overkill, APD, Orgasmatron and TWIY.
Reading Blackadder's post, I think it's kind of 'relieving' or even thrilling when you get to know as many bands as possible before meeting your favourite band. Not necessarily to know where Motorhead came from, but also to have that feeling of getting to know so much shit or even 'good sketches' before getting to know what a true masterpiece is.

Choosing one album is really difficult.
My choice for a new fan would be 'No Sleep Till Hammersmith.' It's considered by many to be one of the greatest live albums released and I agree.
My second choice would be the Stone Deaf Forever box set. It can be had for not much money on ebay. I's an incredible box set. I used to have it in my car and would listen to it regularly. It has an incredible selection of songs spanning many years. I avoided looking thoroughly to the list of tracks on it as I like being surprised. I nearly crapped my pants when I heard Motorhead playing Silver Machine on there - Lemmy's first big hit.

Compilations can be a very effective way of someone getting into a band though. I had heard AoS, Iron Fist and APD, and seen the band live but was still not totally convinced. It was No Remorse that really sealed the deal for me. Of course the 4 blistering new tracks did help

If someone points San Gopal, Rockin Vicars and Hawkwind to me I wouldn´t never listen Motorhead... since there´s nothing related... apart Lemmy be a member of them.

I must answer on this one. Nothing related????!!!!!! Are you really a Motorhead fan? Except very very similar melody between Sam Gopal "Sky is burning" and "Dead and gone" song, Motorhead was MADE from Hawkwind and Pink Fairies style. Half first album On parole are songs from Hawkwind and Pink Fairies, and almost on most of "Motorhead" album too, same as next semi-official three live albums before Overkill. Nothing in common????!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone here from Croatia would NEVER LISTEN Motorhead without this connection from this extreme good bands from the past, as far as those people I know. Except maybe metal fans. But I don't recognize them as real Motorhead fans. EVEN THEY ARE about 50% of all Motor "fans" on this planet. I'm saying this because I can smell on many miles away comment from metal fan. We are different, don't take this personal. Only thing is, Lemmy is on my side, because I talk the same thing and see Motorhead on the same way like he, and that's rnr band and all that what I wrote here. SO, you are not only against me, you are against Lemmy too. Because what is a difference between me and Lemmy if we talk the same about what Motorhead is? Real Motorhead soul started to grow from Rockin Vickers (Lemmy), Sam Gopal, Hawkwind and then Motorhead (and Larry original line up, P. Fairies). If you don't know what is in common, for me than you are not real Motorhead fan. Sorry.

I know, I can't order someone or anyone how is gonna listen Motorhead or whatever... Just maybe some times I'm little angry if some real fan can ignore some real fact. Or facts. Or ignore what Lemmy think and talks about his own band. And He made this band and this music and I can't understand why is he so ignored from some so called fans. Sorry but I just can't understand that. I just can't...

I've been a Motorhead fan since the Ace of Spades as it was the only Motorhead album that was released in North America at the time. I had to get Imports of Bomber and Overkill because the (mostly American) record companies weren't interested in releasing them until the Ace of Spades became a bestseller. It still took a couple of years after that to release the earlier albums. So, I've been a fan for a pretty long time - yikes! it's about 32 years now!
I did not know about the connection to the earlier bands until a couple of years ago. Interestingly enough, I had heard of Hawkwind but I didn't know Lemmy was in the band. I had a friend who liked Hawkwind (and likely recorded some of their concerts as he used to record almost all the concerts he went to since 1971. I no longer speak to him but he had boxes and boxes full of bootlegs he recorded. There were so many that trying to find something specific was almost impossible). I don't think that he knew that Lemmy was even in the band.
As for his earlier groups, I'm planning on checking them out, but these days I'm enjoying slowly getting re-aquainted with the Motorhead catalog, so I likely won't be checking them out soon (because I have all the Motorhead albums and I want to slowly go through them to appreciate each one individually.
It's great to know the history of bands and how everything evolved. Motorhead has a huge fan base of people who weren't even born when most of their albums came out.
When I saw them last year in Toronto it was a sold out show. Most of the audience members looked like they were in their 20's. Although they like Motorhead they don't know anything about their history.

dude, this is music! Fun!
You're making some religious thing out of it. Like those fundamentalistic idiots! "Who does not share my opinion is an infidel". Gaaaawd!
Relax! People have different opinions, there is no "right" or "wrong"!
I'm a Motörhead fan since 1979 (how long are you?), the bands music has been with me through all my life, I play bass and guitar because of Motörhead. I love this music more than any other music.
But hey, I don't give a shit if "Lemmy is on my side" or not. He's only a musician (although a good one) and certainly not some impeccable deity or whatever...

Every Motorhead fan's collection, however small, should have Another Perfect Day in it. If you can get your hands on it, buy the 2-disc deluxe version. Other than that, I'd say Inferno, Ace of Spades, or Bomber.

Right, that's right. That's why I'm always talking how pre-Motorhead bands are important for Motorhead it self. Lemmy did not fell from sky and now we got Motorhead, He grew up like artist and musician threw this bands and there is some connection which I mentioned before with those bands. Who knows, if Lemmy wasn't been in all those bands who knows if we could have Motorhead today OR if yes, Will this Motorhead had a sound like it have today? For shore On parole, and Motorhead album would never sound like this maybe... Everything of those bands is important.

But for me Motorhead is far far far more than just fun. It's art, it's way of thinkin, it's way of life etc etc... Maybe I'm sound stupid to someone but that's how I feel. I now some people and they are fanatics about some other stuff, they sounded stupid to me too but I later a found out that those stuff are not just fun for them, it's life. I don't know if I explained good... Lemmy have like in Orgasmatron song some if you want political view on world, people etc... I have that opinion too, it's the same. It's not only fun, it's art, same view on things etc.... Far more than ONLY fun to me. Real art.

sure, and nothing is wrong in seeing a musician as an idol or archetype. And adoring a bands music isn't wrong, either.
BUT it is still music. It's supposed to be fun. It might comfort you in difficult times. And I personally consider music to be some kind of "aural photo book", it bears so many memories linked to that music. Memories of good times, bad times, friends (some long gone) and stuff like that.
You just have to be careful in calling others "not real fans", just because they have a different approach to that subject. And certainly a Metal dude can be a "real" Motörhead fan. It's in no way mutually exclusive! I am a perfect example for that...
It's just that turning into a fanatic (NO MATTER on which subject!) is always wrong! It blinds out other stuff, gives you blinkers, makes you deaf, dumb and blind. Nobody wants to be like that...

well .. I don´t change my position about the bands and its influences.  I know the importance of them in the history but they are one type of music and Motorhead is another complete type of music. Personally I think Motorhead is more punk/metal than rock ... but in the end, punk and metal are a ramification of rock´n´roll ... Lemmy said it is r´n´r so who I m to disagree? because it is really rock in the end. I m a huge heavy/death/black/thrash/punk/HC/rock fan ... as no one here... since people are more into classic rock with few exceptions, and I m 48 yo and survive all the "fashions" and changed in rock music and for me it is a lifestyle and not only music... so I m a big Motorhead fan without ANY cd, lp, cassette or even a mp3 of Lemmy´s previous bands... Sorry who disagrees ...  cheers Marco

However, they have their own sound later but thats evolution, mentally is the same. Fine, we can't agree and ok. In this theme which I started obviously they are different opinions and obviously they will stay like that. Oh well, what can I do... life's go on.

Cheers Marco, we'll meet at the non-fans corner. Shut up you tart! (Like Delboy say from "Only fools and horses" show) I did not say this to you.

of course I must agree the On Parole sounds different, but it´s heavier than the others band....

I first bought one of the versions of the Best of Motorhead then I bought the Ace of Spades. I would probably suggest Ace of Spades.
