Convince me that the alternate takes / demos on the reissue of On Parole aren't the greatest songs Motorhead ever recorded

Anything with Larry Wallis on it has to among the greatest of anything ever!

So, uh, what's the tracklisting on this baby?

Agreed about Wallis. Shame he didn't stick around thru Hammersmith!

As for the reissue, there are only four songs, tacked on to the end: far superior versions of "On Parole," "City Kids," "Motorhead" and "Leaving Here." Lemmy sounds neither hippiepsyched Sam Gopal / Hawkwind nor crushed-glass-throat Motorhead. There are friggin' HARMONY VOCALS fer chrissakes! Check it out!

_on parole_ is fucking amazing - i only have the LP, but i really wonder what might've happened if this lineup had gone on. world domination, i'd guess.

now...i'm gonna have to buy the cd.
