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
