of Motorhead for many years, and played on all their classic albums, co-writing
such hits as Ace Of Spades and Hump On Your Back, among many others. After leaving

well received albums. Since the demise of Fastway, Fast Eddie Clarke has concentrated
mostly on studio work, besides recording his one studio album.
