Why this recording

A festival best known for jazz hosts Lemmy's power trio for a tight set: nine songs in forty-five minutes. The timestamped description places "Sacrifice" and its drum solo between 3:47 and 11:23, nearly eight minutes handed to Mikkey Dee. The finale runs "Ace of Spades" (33:19) into "Overkill" (38:05). Uploaded by a fan in standard definition, the video preserves a record of the band's Swiss stop in 2007.

Filmed live concert at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2007, where Motörhead detonate their rock’n’roll metal in a setting famed for jazz. Led by the immovable Lemmy Kilmister (bass, vocals), flanked by Phil Campbell on guitar and Mikkey Dee on drums, the British power trio deliver a short, head-on nine-song set. It features the classics “Killed by Death,” “Iron Fist,” “Ace of Spades” and “Overkill,” alongside “Rosalie,” “Just ‘Cos You Got the Power” and the acoustic “Whorehouse Blues.” Crushing volume, relentless tempo: this live performance captures the uncompromising stagecraft of a band that became synonymous with no-frills heavy metal. Keywords: Motörhead live, Montreux 2007, heavy metal, Lemmy, full concert.
