DESCRIPTION
To kick off Ace Records 50th Anniversary we are delighted to offer up a 2-LP version of one of the most seminal and important heavy metal albums of all time.
Funded by and released on Chiswick Records in 1977, Motörhead’s debut album was a sonic blister of epic proportions capturing the musical lighting generated by Lemmy (bass/vocals), Phil Taylor (guitar) and Eddie Clarke (drums).
This 2-LP set not only offers up this classic first album featuring tracks like ‘White Line Fever’, ‘Violator’ and ‘Keep Us On The Road’ but also collates together, on sides three and four, ‘City Kids’ the “Beer Drinkers EP” as well as different mixed and alternative versions of ear-bleeding classics like ‘Motörhead’, ‘The Watcher’ and ‘Keep Us On The Road’.
The album cover features a silver hot foil replication Joe Petagno’s original Motorhead logo in all its glory. Sleeve notes are by Ted Carroll who takes the reader through the story of how Chiswick Records managed to scrape together the money to fund the recording and write themselves and Motörhead into rock and roll history.
It’s one hell of a way to kick off Ace’s 50th Anniversary re-issue schedule.

DESCRIPTION
To celebrate our 50th Anniversary Ace Records are delighted to offer a three-LP limited edition compilation of where it all started – Chiswick Records.
Back in November 1975, Ted Carroll finally made his dream of starting an independent label a reality when Chiswick released their first single – The Count Bishop’s “Speedball” EP.
Flanked by Roger Armstrong and Trevor Churchill, Chiswick were in the right place at the right time. They were soon releasing singles that dropped anchor in pub rock, punk, metal, pop and rockabilly by the likes of the 101’ers, Motörhead, the Gorillas, the Radio Stars, the Radiators, the Stukas and many more.
There were also big names before they got bigger. Joe Strummer led the 101’ers. Johnny & the Self Abusers later morphed into Simple Minds whereas Riff Raff featured a young Billy Bragg. Solo artist Jakko became a mainstay of a later incarnation of King Crimson.
Over seven years, Chiswick singles not only sold well but the label even managed score chart singles with artists as diverse as the Radio Stars, Sniff ‘n’ the Tears, Rocky Sharpe & The Replays and the Damned.
Compiled by Roger Armstrong this 3-LP set pulls together some of the finest 45rpm output from Chiswick issued between 1975 and 1982. From the well-known to Minor Classics.
Roger Armstrong and Ted Carroll have also penned the informative line notes with stories ranging from hiring an aeroplane to take a promoter to see a gig in France in those early days, how a brief piano part was added to the Damned’s ‘Smash It Up’ and Thin Lizzy’s Phil Lynott came to produce Terry Woods ‘Tennessee Stud’.

DESCRIPTION
The Damned took great delight in putting up this fictional umbrella under which they covered all manner of 60s classics such as The Human Beinz ‘Nobody But Me’, The Seeds ‘The Wind Blows Your Hair’ and The Litter’s ‘Action Woman’.
The front cover artwork purported the fiction that it was the soundtrack to a lost 1967 film. The original version of “Give Daddy The Knife Cindy” released in 1984 was waxed on purple vinyl although since then we have pressed it on black.
This limited edition of 500 is pressed on purple vinyl. With the Damned remaining red hot and approaching their 50th anniversary year in 2026, this one is sure to sell out before you can sing ‘I Had Too Much To Dream (Last Night)’.
