Posted: 21 Jul 2011, 21:05
BBC4, 21:40 Friday 22 July
This two hour film celebrates the life and rock 'n' roll philosophy of Motorhead frontman and bassist Lemmy.
Lemmy became the bass player in Hawkwind and sang their biggest hit Silver Machine before forming his own hard rockin' metal trio Motorhead in the mid-70s, blending punk and primal rock n roll into a foot to the floor, hard driving rock n roll aesthetic which resulted in monster hits like Ace of Spades and the live album, No Sleep Til Hammersmith in the early 80s and to which he has remained constantly steadfast.
Still touring, still enjoying the rock 'n' roll lifestyle, still inspired by Little Richard and The Beatles, Lemmy remains the ultimate unredeemed and unrepentant rock 'n' roll star. Joining Lemmy and members of Motorhead to celebrate his life and times are Hawkwind's Dave Brock, Metallica's James Hetfield, Dave Grohl, Alice Cooper and Peter Hook.
