When I worked at GC in Hollywood in 2001, we were closing up one night and heard insanely loud Bass coming from the guitar/bass area. The closing manager screamed "WTF!", And we all ran out to see him tear some sales guy a new a$$hole. We found a sales guy with Lemmy demoing bass amps in the tiny bass amp room at full volume. Needless to say no one got chewed out by the manager, we all just smiled and watched Lemmy play at whatever volume he damn well wished.. Very cool memory. Kinda like this scene.
I remember going there in like 2000 and QOTSA bought their whole backline with white road cases for like $600 bucks. It was Josh Homme and the bald bass dude. Apparently the Ampeg bass cabinets once belonged to Rod Stewarts band during a 70s or 80s tour. So if you see the white amps in a vid of them in the early days, I saw those things getting dollyed out the door ! dont remember meeting them though
Great ! Now imagine, my practice room is about the same size with two stacks, at least 3 times a week 1 to 2 hours full throttle bass and vocals, I will always be grateful to Lemmy for that : )
Kings X bassist had the tone Lenny wanted. Guitar amps and non ported cabinets for bass players. Lemmy fucking simple. Not much to engineer for morons. RIP L.
This guy seems like magic, I tend to forget he's dead, he kinda lived up to the standards of being worthy of eternal life or worship, lol. Great guy, great player. Straight shooter.
I did some security work for a company called Showsec in London. One of my first jobs was at Wembley Arena , it was 1988. Kiss were playing and I was just at the left hand side of the stage . My job for the evening was to only let people down the stairs backstage with certain passes. This bloke comes up to me, hands me a pint of beer and says to me very politely , " is there any chance I can go down the stairs" ... It was Lemmy.. I said you can do what you like mate..!!!

I know it's about the amps. But fuck me how beautiful is that Rickenbacker bass? Rest In Peace Lemmy. You have us so much great music and entertained us whenever you played or were interviewed. The world is a poorer place without you.
Lemmy never cared to live in peace, and I'm not sure he would have cared to rest in peace either... if there's an afterlife, Lemmy's doing exactly what he spent his life doing: Rocking out, chasing the ladies, drinking, and enjoying drugs into eternity.

He was ignorant... KIND... but ignorant. You can clearly see on this clip, that he also has no idea about the sound.

My dad got me into Motorhead and as a lifelong fan it's still hard for both of us to believe he's no longer around. Him and John Entwistle had the craziest bass tone.. They were both really guitarists who played bass. Lem was and is Rock N Roll♠️🎩🎸🎰
@@nkmcfrln Yeah, really. Even John himself said he's a guitar player who plays bass guitar not bass and him and his bass guitar playing has been described as "a player whose technique involved not just plucking his strings with his thumb and every finger of his right hand, but also tapping them and switching periodically to a plectrum, bending, hammering on and pulling off notes. He employed vibrating trills and unexpected bell-like harmonics, glissandos that travelled the length of his entire fretboard, parts that echoed or reinforced lead riffs and vocal lines, and even chords strummed across two or more strings that created an all-enveloping wash of low- frequency resonance. What’s more, he made it look easy." If that's not a guitarist who plays bass then I don't know what is, you tell me? You should check out his documentary "The Ox" www.musicradar.com/news/why-john-entwistle-was-the-greatest-rock-bassist-of-all-time and this article if you want to read on him. Him and Lemmy have similar approaches to playing bass guitar.
@@MaskedRiderChris Lem even considered John Entwistle as one the best rock bassist of all time and he was a major influence on Lemmy. I like players like Lemmy who don't play in the traditional sense while creating his own signature style. Even when I go back and listen to Lemmys era with hawkwind you can tell it's Lemmy playing with them.
This man changed my life when I was 14 years old in 1978. I miss him dearly, thank him for the music and the memories. I listen to motorhead every day and will until I die. RIP Lemmy.

Thanks from the Heart to my cat "Pussy", my black beauty... Back in the days, around 1980, when i was 15, and my Motörhead/Philipshalle-every year(often around christmas?)-cycle began, she was in my room, i playing No Sleep 'til Hammersmith, and looking at her, how her ears were trying to compensate the loudness of that all, by turning almost bionic in different positions all the time... Didn't help... The Cosmic Wind/Storm of Motörhead's Sound was too strong...but she STAYED there, could leave anytime. She was a true MOTÖR-CAT! Loved and love both a lot! NOT rest in peace... Please come back!!
I always thought it was so cool how he plays a bass as if it's a guitar. Plays through guitar amps, plays as if he's playing a baritone with two strings cut off. Man, rest in peace dude. You were amazing(and yes I know he was or is a guitarist first).
Was he originally a guitarist? I and I assume many people who mainly play guitar will play bass one of two ways, really basic root notes or trying to do guitar stuff on it, because that's mainly what we know.
@@-The-Darksidegood observation.I think he was and started bass because hawkwind needed one.gene simmons plays bass like its a quitar on early kiss stuff chords and plays along with the quitars more than the drums.

Having watched the head for decades never realised Lemmys bass was " the sound" if that makes sense.He makes it sound like a rhythm guitar yet its a bass! No wonder a 3 piece set up was good enough despite their 4 piece era remaining my favorite on stage.
The last time I saw Motörhead was in Nürnberg Germany in about 2010... I got this amazing blurred picture of Lemmy with Murder One in the background. I will never forget how loud these concerts were, not until the day I die.
Lemmy was a Legand of Legands!!!! He basically created an entire genre of music just to piss everyone off. You will never be forgotten Lemmy, Keep on riding and partying!!!!!
Lemmy and Lou Reed had a love of rock and roll that was purer than life. You just knew it from the way they shouted about it every chance they got, on stage or off.
Deep inside, we all like to think that Lemmy went to the Valhalla so he will be back when he's most needed... Ok, not necessarily him, but his soul reincarnated into another body.
I miss Motörhead concerts , Was one of the the most important - HAPPIEST events in my Life ! THNX for the Music , MOTÖRHEAD FOREVER LEGENDS !! Prost from Germany !
I remember that at least one of the Motorhead concerts that I went to, Lemmy was playing a Marshall amp with the plastic "Marshall" logo hacked about and rearranged to say "No Morals". Thinking about it he must have used more than one logo. Good times...
Lemmy,you are still alive forever in our hearts. I hope your thrashing it out in heaven with the likes of Randy Rhoades, Dio,Dimebag Darrell, Vinnie Paul,Eddie Van Halen,Joey,Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone,Cliff Burton and John Bonham and many other great Hard Rockers Heaven took from us here on Earth.
A guy known only to me as " Hank", ( hence the sounds he made when describing heavy guitar chords), turned me on to Motorhead in 1980. Between the albums blasting thru our p.a., and the influence they had on our band, my lease was terminated! Lemmy was great!
@@creamwobbly hehe, yeah, these days the hanging out might be a little bit one sided. Where like one doesn't finish his beer or whiskey. And you'd get drunk alone. I understand those situations..... xD
Working at Marshall.... working at Marshall on amps, working at Marshall on the " Murder One Amp". Working at Marshall on the "Murder One Amp" with Mr Kilmister, OUTSTANDING.
I remember seeing Rory Gallagher at the Marquee maybe 1980/81 and before he played his set in the back where the bar was Lemmy was playing a fruit machine. No one, not a solitary person went near him. The man looked so big and mean (am sure he was a lovely guy but what an aura he gave off). Great times!
I used to use a 78 Marshall head with no master volume control and an Ampeg 8x10 cabinet. The other bass players couldn't figure out how I got such deep tone control. Marshall and Ampeg. Quite simple actually. Lado bass was quite a help.
I had the great pleasure as a 17 year old lad watching Lemmy do a sound check before a Gig. I was the only person there watching him. I couldn’t understand why no one else was there!
Немного печально смотреть, как же жалко, что Лемми нас покинул. Думаю, в раю ему выдали самую лучшую аппаратуру и инструменты, ведь он великий музыкант.
Lemmy was my buddy, almost every Friday and Saturday night when Lemmy was not touring he use to come to Rainbow club on Sunset blv and he would hangout on the second floor. There was a PAC-MAN video game in the corner between the bar and the small dance floor and the DJ booth. He was a PAC-MAN freak and that’s how I met him I was playing pac-man waiting for my bodies to show up and he came sat across of me set a quarter on the pac-Man screen and started watching me play waiting for his turn. It was one of those video games that looked like a coffee table where the screen is flat and there is to Joystix on each side. He was all excited because I was cleaning stages one after one. It took me 1.5 hr to loose but I had a very high points. When I was done and I was about to get up he said I am paying for your next game do you want to against me I said why not he started playing first I got beers for us and that was the start of a very long and Cool friend ship between Lemmy and I. For almost 10 years we were good buddies he was a very down to earth human being. RIP BUDDY.
Saw Lemmy at the Temple Theater in Tacoma. Met Lemmy. "There's a bar over there." He bought many drinks. And kept drinking over for many drinks men and women. Lemmy showed a bartender for 500 dollars, and "keep drinking !" ;-)
From a 1996 interview: On the topic of authors and books, Lemmy's favourites include Michael Moorcock, Philip K. Dick ("he's great!"), J. G. Ballard, and Len Deighton. He has a soft spot for Len Deighton's two Bernard Sampson trilogies (Berlin Game, Mexico Set, London Match, continued with Spy Hook, Spy Line, and Spy Sinker), which Lemmy thinks is an amazing piece of work" since they all "fit together as one." Lemmy also reads a lot of documentaries concerning the topic of war, particularly World War I and II. Why about war? "Because it's the most popular pastime in the world. Everybody seems to be doing it. I like the big ones because it shows man at his worst."
“Right so here’s my amp. I like to play it loud. Look see here, I had them make it go up to eleven, you see? Right, I like to have that extra umff, ya know? Just a little extra push when you need it.” I swear, “This is Spinal Tap” nailed the douchiness of rock and roll with exquisite precision.
Brothers. I just turned 56, I'm an old punker, loved Lemmy from here in the states. Marshall stacks and a custom cab, I think. Like my old Welsh granmps used to say, "we'll ne'er see the loiks o' heem again."
I remember I was at work when I heard Lemmy died. It was indeed a sad day. Saw Motorhead with Jackyl and then again with Black Sabbath. Very good in concert. Rocked the house. 🤘🙏
"I put my heart and soul into that"
Lemmy:
"Oh, whereabouts?"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘
Quick as lightning because he had the little tech guy perfectly weighed up 😉
The Marshall guy sounds like he’s in Spinal Tap. RIP Lemmy. One of a kind.
He's the guy that's responsible for putting the 11 into the amps
I was thinking exactly the same thing, waiting for him to say this one goes to 11
If you had played this audio for me without seeing, I would have thought it was Nigel Tunnel, no doubt.
Met him, Eddy and Phil at a meet n greet after a show in '82. Lovely blokes, much friendlier than the image they portrayed. RIP all of them

Am I too stupid to think that we’ll see Lemmy again someday? Yes
Will I ever stop thinking like this? Hell nah
Deep inside, we all like to think that Lemmy went to the Valhalla so he will be back when he's most needed... Ok, not necessarily him, but his soul reincarnated into another body.
We will see him again some day, in a better place, far from the worries and strife of this world.
@@BruceLeeKingoftheSewers dude. Stop lying. No he won’t. Its sad you people believe that
@@Ottophil *pokes* people are free to believe whatever they want, don’t be rude 🙃
Repent and accept Jesus Christ before it's too late!!! Right now is your time. This very second.
Lemmy: The persona and sound of pure rock and roll.
I miss Motörhead concerts , Was one of the the most important - HAPPIEST events in my Life ! THNX for the Music , MOTÖRHEAD FOREVER LEGENDS !! Prost from Germany !
I remember that at least one of the Motorhead concerts that I went to, Lemmy was playing a Marshall amp with the plastic "Marshall" logo hacked about and rearranged to say "No Morals". Thinking about it he must have used more than one logo. Good times...
Lemmy,you are still alive forever in our hearts. I hope your thrashing it out in heaven with the likes of Randy Rhoades, Dio,Dimebag Darrell, Vinnie Paul,Eddie Van Halen,Joey,Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone,Cliff Burton and John Bonham and many other great Hard Rockers Heaven took from us here on Earth.
A guy known only to me as " Hank", ( hence the sounds he made when describing heavy guitar chords), turned me on to Motorhead in 1980. Between the albums blasting thru our p.a., and the influence they had on our band, my lease was terminated! Lemmy was great!
Not Hank. Gank!
Lemmy looked fun to hang out with. 😎 Glad he did get to be funny for as long he did even tho we wished to keep him longer. Rock In Peace Lemmy 😎🍻
@@creamwobbly hehe, yeah, these days the hanging out might be a little bit one sided.
Where like one doesn't finish his beer or whiskey. And you'd get drunk alone. I understand those situations..... xD
Lemmy was the most Bad Ass Bass Player there Was, We Miss you Brother, You will never be Forgotten, Cousin Figel
Working at Marshall.... working at Marshall on amps, working at Marshall on the " Murder One Amp". Working at Marshall on the "Murder One Amp" with Mr Kilmister, OUTSTANDING.
We are motorhead and we play rock and roll!
Legend will live forever!
I remember seeing Rory Gallagher at the Marquee maybe 1980/81 and before he played his set in the back where the bar was Lemmy was playing a fruit machine. No one, not a solitary person went near him. The man looked so big and mean (am sure he was a lovely guy but what an aura he gave off).
Great times!
I used to use a 78 Marshall head with no master volume control and an Ampeg 8x10 cabinet. The other bass players couldn't figure out how I got such deep tone control. Marshall and Ampeg. Quite simple actually. Lado bass was quite a help.
Lemmy was and is the epitome of the badass bass player that you wouldn’t want to mess with. Cool as fuck!
Wouldn't want to mess in what way exactly?
Not into Motorhead (but loved their version of God Save the Queen) but it was a joy to see Lemmy testing this monster of a stack.
Lemmy will love forever 🤘 A true music 🎼 legend 🤘
That bass is so beautiful
He cancelled a gig in my country , thenonly opportunity i had to see him ..... he passed few days later 😭
I had the great pleasure as a 17 year old lad watching Lemmy do a sound check before a Gig. I was the only person there watching him. I couldn’t understand why no one else was there!
Because it was so fucking loud?!!!🤣🤣🤣
@@stephaneherringtoniowritin4986. Indeed it was! 🤣
@@ryszmansoundvision6572
Lol😅😅🤟
@@stephaneherringtoniowritin4986 I’d never seen or heard anything like it. Someone playing chords on a bass guitar!
@@ryszmansoundvision6572
Easily the loudest band I ever saw. My ears rang for a week after the gig!
Stone Deaf Forever!!!😊🤘
Haha I just remembered I had some guy mention that I reminded him of Lemmy for some strange reason.
I’ve never had such respect in my life!!
Made me smile watching this! Good stuff!
All these extras are on the "Lemmy"-Bluray btw.
Немного печально смотреть, как же жалко, что Лемми нас покинул. Думаю, в раю ему выдали самую лучшую аппаратуру и инструменты, ведь он великий музыкант.
I can listen to motörhead and never become tired! Sometimes i blast the overkill album on cassette day and night
'I put my heart and soul into these' Lemmy: 'Whereabouts?' He was always quick. 🤣🤣
Lemmy was my buddy, almost every Friday and Saturday night when Lemmy was not touring he use to come to Rainbow club on Sunset blv and he would hangout on the second floor.
There was a PAC-MAN video game in the corner between the bar and the small dance floor and the DJ booth. He was a PAC-MAN freak and that’s how I met him I was playing pac-man waiting for my bodies to show up and he came sat across of me set a quarter on the pac-Man screen and started watching me play waiting for his turn. It was one of those video games that looked like a coffee table where the screen is flat and there is to Joystix on each side. He was all excited because I was cleaning stages one after one. It took me 1.5 hr to loose but I had a very high points. When I was done and I was about to get up he said I am paying for your next game do you want to against me I said why not he started playing first I got beers for us and that was the start of a very long and
Cool friend ship between Lemmy and I.
For almost 10 years we were good buddies he was a very down to earth human being.
RIP BUDDY.
it sounds like bees attacking a rhino herd.....
He comes walking down the ramp and I immediately think, I miss Lemmy. RIP
Legend 🤘🏻♠️ Lemmy lives forever
Легенда никогда не умирает!!!
Never missed someone I never knew so much.
Aint that the truth...
Good to see Lemmy playing anything. RIP Lemmy
Saw Lemmy at the Temple Theater in Tacoma. Met Lemmy. "There's a bar over there."
He bought many drinks. And kept drinking over for many drinks men and women.
Lemmy showed a bartender for 500 dollars, and "keep drinking !" ;-)
I would like to know what books he was reading. Totally respect to Lenny as a class act as always .
From a 1996 interview: On the topic of authors and books, Lemmy's favourites include Michael Moorcock, Philip K. Dick ("he's great!"), J. G. Ballard, and Len Deighton. He has a soft spot for Len Deighton's two Bernard Sampson trilogies (Berlin Game, Mexico Set, London Match, continued with Spy Hook, Spy Line, and Spy Sinker), which Lemmy thinks is an amazing piece of work" since they all "fit together as one." Lemmy also reads a lot of documentaries concerning the topic of war, particularly World War I and II. Why about war? "Because it's the most popular pastime in the world. Everybody seems to be doing it. I like the big ones because it shows man at his worst."
“Right so here’s my amp. I like to play it loud. Look see here, I had them make it go up to eleven, you see? Right, I like to have that extra umff, ya know? Just a little extra push when you need it.” I swear, “This is Spinal Tap” nailed the douchiness of rock and roll with exquisite precision.
This quote is wrong as shit but your point is exactly right
@@Meltedcheese567 lol- I paraphrased a bit 😎
It's one louder, isn't it?
I'm getting old, it's hard watching your younger heroes die
Brothers. I just turned 56, I'm an old punker, loved Lemmy from here in the states. Marshall stacks and a custom cab, I
think. Like my old Welsh granmps used to say, "we'll ne'er see the loiks o' heem again."
Man he played bass like a guitar and made it speak ungodly amounts of music.
So fortunate to see him live. R.I.P.
I remember I was at work when I heard Lemmy died. It was indeed a sad day. Saw Motorhead with Jackyl and then again with Black Sabbath. Very good in concert. Rocked the house. 🤘🙏
1:54 When Lemmy tells you «you did good», you really don't need any other validation.
“I’ve put my heart and soul into these so you have to look after them”
“Where about?”
LMFAO 🤣
The Sheriff and The Marshall 🤘
Everyone in that room is deaf now
Lemmy rocked the bass like a lead guitar player 🤘
He's a loveable old bloke who is sorely missed by everyone who knew him.
Wow! Very nice! Do you rave mor extras Lemyy movie?
Yeah I've ripped all the blu ray extras and will be uploading them soon 👌
@@musicandstuff6354 🤩
He’s such a legend, I forgot he could play.
This Man is a true Legend.
