Motörhead’s controversial album, Another Perfect Day, will celebrate its 40th anniversary with a deluxe reissue. The album, featuring former Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian Robertson, who replaced Fast Eddie Clarke, departed from the band’s classic sound, incorporating a more “musical” approach. Initially met with mixed reactions in 1983, the album is now a unique chapter in Motörhead’s early history. To celebrate the milestone, a special reissue, including deluxe editions, is set to be released on November 3rd. These editions will feature a remastering of the original album, previously unreleased demo bonus tracks, a full concert recording from 1983, the album’s backstory, and unseen photos. A limited edition blue and black swirl vinyl of the standalone album will also be available.
Watch the video for the previously unreleased demo version of “Climber” (aka Shine) below and pre-order the anniversary edition here:
