Chris,

Actually, the Warrior CD was recorded from John Chase's unplayed mint vinyl
copy. John as you may know, is the band's official photographer.  He also
designed the Business trip cover!  He's also a great bloke!

The version of Motorhead, came from two copies of the 7" that I had.  They were
both a bit scratched, and as there was a huge hurry at the time, a mint copy
couldn't be traced.  Both copies were copied to DAT, and cut apart, and spliced
to remake an unscratched end-product, as well as being cedered! (I think that's
the correct spelling!  Cedering is very detailled EQing)  That is why John and
I get a credit on the CD!

Even a re-hashed version of Motorhead was better than nothing at the time!
I think I recall, Doug saying that the UK masters had actually gone missing.

So, now you all know!
