Clarke left as a consequence of the band recording Stand By Your Man , a cover version of the Tammy Wynette classic, in collaboration with Wendy O. Williams and the Plasmatics . Clarke felt that the song compromised the band’s principles, refused to play on the recording and resigned, later forming his own band, Fastway . Lemmy and Taylor made numerous telephone calls to find a guitarist, including one to Brian Robertson , formerly with Thin Lizzy , who was recording a solo album in Canada. He agreed to help out and complete the tour with them. Robertson signed a one-album deal resulting in 1983’s Another Perfect Day and the two singles from it, ” Shine ” and ” I Got Mine “.
