Motörhead ‘No Sleep To Hammersmith’ Is About To Get A Whole Lot Bigger

Motörhead’s 1981 live album ‘No Sleep ‘Til Hammersmith’ has been given at 2021 make-over.

The irony of the title was that Motörhead did not perform at the famed London Hammersmith Odeon on their 1981 tour.

The expanded box set features the complete recordings of the two Newcastle shows as well as the Queen’s Hall, Leeds show. The original album also included tracks recorded in Norfolk and Belfast in 1981.

Despite being a live album ‘No Sleep ‘Til Hammersmith’ is the highest charting Motörhead album, reaching no 1. When the album was released Motörhead were in the USA supporting Ozzy Osbourne.

The original ‘No Sleep ‘Till Hammersmith’ was released on 27 June 1981. The 40th anniversary edition on ‘No Sleep ‘Til Hammersmith’ will be released on June 25, 2021.
