Not the best collection of "Best of".......2007-03-11

Multiple obvious incorrect choices for a greatest hits. You would think that they could get all the best with 40-45 songs to work with but they didn't. Too many earlier songs with Lemmy's other bands and too many crowd favorites that aren't as good on CD as they are live. Still entertaining as all Motorhead albums are, but somewhat lacking.

Strong Collection for One of Metal's Greats........2006-08-07

There have been innumerable Motorhead collections over the years, but this is one of the few that attempts to mix old with the new. On this collection, all the classics are present, and some newer material is thrown in as well. Unfortunately, there are some throw-away tracks, mainly the Girlscool and Headgirl tracks. (To be honest, these tracks are pretty much worthless.) Some live tracks are meshed in and fit well, and the newer songs help to add some variety to the old-scool stuff.

I would recommend this collection to listeners looking to get a nice, cheap collection of some of Motorhead's best just for the sake of getting into the band. But if you're wanting the prime collection of older material, save up some extra dough and buy "No Remorse" or "Stone Deaf Forever."

Not my favorite compilation from a metal group.......2006-02-20

Just before I bought this I found an special version of Overkill with some bonus tracks. I expected this disc as a complement for that amazing special edition of my favorite Motorhead disc, but it was disaponting. From my point of view, it doesn't have some of the great songs like "Don't let dady kiss me" and more. Besides this includes Motorhead's version played for other groups, wasn't a Motorhead compilation? Not a good compilation of this cutting edge metal group.

Motorhead... Born to kick your ass.......2005-11-13

I'm assuming that if you're checking out this "Best Of" compilation you are fairly new to the band. This album pretty much just puts their most popular tracks on 2 discs. Unless you're a tight-wad I would put down another 20 or so dollars and get the 5 disc "best of" box set "Stone Deaf Forever". It's well worth it. But if you're just looking for a fairly cheap way to get all the motorhits then buy the damn thing! Lemmy & crew never dissapoint.

As for the pu**y-boy below who claims that f***ing Korn and all of that other stale FM rock that no one really cares about is better than Motorhead... Get off the crack man! Powerman 5000 and Disturbed are solid metal acts?? The reason Motorhead has been around as long as they have been is because they blow those weaklings off stage... brethern.

Joe D........2005-05-05

Dave Leon what are you smokin!!! Guys like you don't even know who the greats are. This is an excellent CD. It's missing few songs that belong here. They do this so you buythe whole catalog. It's a great first CD For New Lemmy listeners. Lemmy Kilmister is the greatest living Rock n Roll living legend today. Dave Grohl has it right trust him. The best thing about the Motortrain is that it keeps on rolling every year with massive tour dates. Saw them in Chi-town in March on the Inferno tour "Wow". Plus they put out great new material every other year. If Lemmy,Phil and Mickey had it there way they would do a new CD every six months and it would be great. Dave Leon don't put Tool on the same planet as Motorhead. Dave do you don't know who John Sykes, Gary Moore or Glenn Hughes are? Probably not. Long Live Motorheead.
