Pretty sure I originally got this from Hear Rock City so thanks go out to them (a great Rock, Hard Rock Metal blog by the way, now a forum)). When Motörhead guitarist left to pursue other ventures he was quoted as saying he wanted to make music that he could be proud of. This was a slam against Lemmy's decision to record the Tammy Wynette song "Stand By Your Man" with Wendy O'Williams of The Plasmatics. The album spawned two radio hits that actually received MTV air play in "Say What You Will" and "Easy Living". Successful tours followed but the band never received the attention Clarke's former band did. Dave King now fronts Celtic Punk outfit Flogging Molly, "Fast" Eddie Clarke emerged in 2011 with another line-up of Fastway and released the CD Eat Dog Eat.

Thanks Dave. Of course the original lineup included Pete Way of UFO fame, although his stint with the band was very brief due to contractual obligations with his record company. Love that album.
ReplyDeleteHope the move went well.
Ron
You're welcome Ron, glad you are enjoying the Fastway. The move went real smooth. I have my computer set up so while I post I have a great view of the lake in my back yard. Real peaceful.
