How times have changed. This was the Lemmy-Wallis-Fox line-up and
apparently it went very badly wrong. I have also heard it contained a
fifteen minute `Silver Machine' but this may just be Motormyth.
Hammersmith Odeon, according to the sleeve notes in _On Parole_. Yours,

actually wasnt the first motohaid gig in '75 opening for hawkwind? the gig
which began with an xcerpt from ==koff== a hitler speech? i've got it; it
didnt go so wrong aside from that opening...dunno about 15 minutes of "silver
machine" but they did play it; also the velvet underground's "i'm waiting for
the man"...
so if anyone ever asks 'what's the one cover song which the yardbirds,
motorhead, and hawkwind have in common?' the latter song be it.

"what's word's worth?" (by any other name) is way sloppier than their first
gig, memory serving
