I always loved this song. It was was a hit in 1980 - at the time I was 15 and starting to play guitar in a rock band with friends, but we never got round to playing any Motorhead. It transpires that now I've tried, their music is lots of fun, and this project has rejuvanted my music efforts.
Guitar, Bass, Vocals, Mix: George Williams (guitargeorge)
Drums: Ian Burrage (stonehead)
Lyrics:
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, it's still the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades
Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil,
Going with the flow, it's all a game to me,
Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you,
Double up or quit, double stake or split, it's
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades
You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby,
I don't wanna live for ever,
And don't forget the joker!
Pushing up the ante, I know you've got to see me,
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades

Thanks guys and many thanks to George for letting me have fun with this one ..It's been a long time since I played this in anger but it brought a lot of very good memories flooding back...they were good times due to the great tracks that were played but mainly because I survived the experiences LOL

I know this was completed months ago but I've since got better monitors and realise the mix wasn't great. I've updated it in the first post.
George :)
I feel a strong urge to do another metal classic ... maybe Judas Priest "Exciter", Iron Maiden "Run To The Hills" or Angel Witch "Angel Wiitch" ... ?
-
I heard this on your site,thought it was good then & now I think the singing is even better...Lemmy is a superhero,a thoroughly decent Geezer,he should be prime minister
-
Great stuff George thanks for the update ;D ;D ;D
-
Love it!
How about Tyrant?

It brings back memories of when they played on ' The Young Ones' , I just loved the song ever since.
