Stasium was fired and Peter Solley was hired as producer. The story according to Stasium was that Lemmy’s drug and alcohol intake had far exceeded the limitations of Stasium’s patience so he quit. The single ” The One to Sing the Blues ” issued on 24 December 1990 (7″ and CD) and 5 January 1991 (12″), was followed by the album 1916 on 21 January. The single, which was issued in 7″, cassette, shaped picture disc , 12″ and CD single, reached No. 45 in the UK Singles Chart, the album reached No. 24 in the UK Album Charts.
