I'M IN LOVE WITH
ROCK N' ROLL
IT SATISFIES MY SOUL
Rock 'n' Roll
is the eighth
studio album
by English
rock band
released in
August 1987.
It is their last album
with the
GWR label,
as more legal issues
embroiled the band
with yet another label.
Reaching only No. 34
in the UK Albums Chart,
Rock 'n' Roll
was,
in that respect,
the worst performing
of all of
Motörhead's
top 40 chart hits.
It would see the return of
'classic line up'
drummer
Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor,
albeit only for a
few more years
before being fired.
Background
In 1987,
Motörhead appeared in
the Peter Richardson film
Eat the Rich,
which starred the
regular cast of
The Comic Strip
and
Motörhead
frontman
Lemmy himself
in a small part as
"Spider".
The band supplied
six songs
for the soundtrack
as well.
As the band was about
to film their cameo,
however,
drummer
Pete Gill
was fired
and
Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor
rejoined
after having quit
in 1984
