After Robertson’s departure, the band received tapes from guitarists

After Robertson’s departure, the band received tapes from guitarists from all over the world who wished to be considered for a place in Motörhead. The group returned to the concept of dual lead guitars by hiring unknowns Würzel and Phil Campbell (formerly of Persian Risk ). In February 1984, the Lemmy, Campbell, Würzel, and Taylor line-up recorded “Ace of Spades” for the ” Bambi ” episode in the British television series, The Young Ones . Scenes of the band playing are interspersed with the characters’ antics as they rush to the railway station, in a parody of the Beatles ‘ comedy film A Hard Day’s Night . Taylor quit the band after that recording, causing Lemmy to quip: “Did I leave them or did they leave me?”. Before joining Motörhead, Phil Campbell had met former Saxon drummer Pete Gill , and the trio decided to call him to see if he would like to visit London. The try-outs went well and Gill was hired.
