        IMO, the best "starter" CD for Motorhead is their compilation,
        No Remorse.  It's one of the better assembling jobs I've heard
        and the original 2-lp set was done in *leather* (how cool is
        that?).

        Besides having many of the "classic" MH tunes from their first
        6? albums (live "Motorhead," Road Crew, Dancing on Your Grave,
        Bomber, etc.), it features 4 unreleased tunes that, in my mind,
        announced the new Motorhead sound - Steal Your Face,
        Snaggletooth, Locomotive, Killed By Death.  Great stuff.

        If you don't like No Remorse, you won't like Motorhead.

        I will also second the opinions I've read here of the live
        Motorhead experience.

        Theirs was the only rock show I've seen where the crowd moved
        BACK.  I definitely lost permanent hearing...though doing so to
        Lemmy, bathed in a sickly green light while growling through
        "Orgasmatron," isn't so bad.
