3.5 stars - Good "best of" disc, horrible "extras" disc.......2004-08-01

All The Aces (2001.) One of Motorhead's many hits compilations, which features a bonus disc of rare pre-Motorhead material from members of the band.

Motorhead. These guys are the gods of classic heavy metal, and there is no debating it. If it wasn't for these guys, it's not likely that the British metal uprising of the early eighties or even the whole eighties metal thing in the United States would ever have taken place. The band has shaped the genre from their earliest known days. Over the years, the band has released a lot of hits compilations. For this one, the band did a typical "best of", and threw in a disc of pre-Motorhead rarities as a bonus! How does this compilation, entitled All The Aces, measure up? Read on for my review.

PROS:
-ALL THE BIG HITS THAT CASUAL FANS KNOW AND LOVE ARE HERE. The band's biggest hit of all, the classic Ace Of Spaces, is here for your listening pleasure, as are the other hits, including Motorhead and Overkill.
-THE SET ALSO GIVES YOU UNDERRATED TRACKS. No Class and Bomber are among the severely underrated little gems that you'll get in this set, and they're well worth listening to.
-YOU GET A BONUS DISC OF MATERIAL! The set features a disc of rarities entitled the Muggers' Tapes - tapes from a band that some Motorhead members participated in prior to the formation of the band.
-ENHANCED CD EXTRAS. If you've got a computer, you can view some live performance music videos from the band! It's a nice extra if you own a computer.

CONS:
-TOO MUCH EMPHASIS ON THE A-SIDE SINGLES, NOT ENOUGH ON THE LESSER-KNOWN STUFF AND THE B-SIDES. Because of this, the compilation lacks one of the band's finest underrated masterpieces - Dirty Love. And that's not the only hidden gem the set lacks.
-SOME SURPRISING OMISSIONS. Where the hell is Stone Dead Forever, one of the band's biggest hits? What about Vibrator and Lost Johnny from the band's debut? Whoever compiled this set could have used some major help!
-THE "EXTRAS" DISC IS FLAT OUT TERRIBLE! The Muggers' Tapes don't even include Lemmy Kilmister, so they are NOT going to appeal to most fans of the band. Likewise, the sound quality is horrendous. Basically, it's horrible-sounding junk that isn't even really Motorhead.

OVERALL:
To put it in simplest terms possible, Motorhead has better hits compilations out there, the best of which being the two-disc Very Best Of Motorhead. Get THAT set instead. This is a set that had potential, but its potential is ultimately ruined by its flaws and the awful second disc. If you find this set in the budget bin, go for it. Otherwise, shell out the extra cash and get the two-disc Best Of.

You Got it all here!!!.......2003-03-26

This collection is awesome, its almost like i hand picked it myself. Any rock fan can find 4 or 5 classics on this disc. if you are a hard rock fan you will love them all. The best stuff for probably the most underated act of all time.Buy this first and start collecting others like ace of Spades,iron Fist and Anorther Perfect Day!

Waste of time............2003-05-04

I love Motorhead!!.....Therefore I am going to be brutally honest here. This CD is not what it appears to be. The song list is decent, but no Girlschool/Motorhead (Motorschool? Girlhead?) songs are included. -As for the "mugger" tapes... Who wouldn"t LOVE to hear Lemmy belt out "Cinnamon Girl", "Summertime Blues" or "Somthin' Else"?.... Well guess what, you won't here. The "Muggers" were a pick up band of "Fast" Eddie Clarke's and "Philthy" Animal Taylor's (original M'head members for the uneducated). Lemmy had nothing to do w/ it... and just as well. This was strictly a coverband recorded at a party with a (rightfully so) un-enthusiastic audience. Do not waste your time/money... Buy "No Remorse", "1916" & "No Sleep til Hammersmith".... These are ESSENTIAL listening. Oh well.. at least there is a NIN-style remake of "Ace of Spades" on here.
