Motorhead Live Performance of Overkill at Glasgow Apollo

Venue: Stadthalle Location: Offenbach am Main, Hesse, Germany Date: November 30, 1981

In 1981, Motörhead was riding high on the success of their album "No Sleep 'til Hammersmith," which was released earlier that same year. This live album, capturing the raw energy of their performances, solidified the band's reputation in the rock and heavy metal scenes. The recording of "Overkill" showcased their relentless sound and Lemmy's iconic gravelly vocals, offering fans a taste of the electrifying atmosphere they created on stage. By the time of this performance in Offenbach, they had already gained a loyal following, thanks in part to their energetic shows and Lemmy's larger-than-life persona. The Glasgow Apollo gig was particularly memorable, noted for its spirited crowd and the band's unyielding stage presence, which have since become synonymous with Motörhead's legacy.
