Motorhead

In 1985, Motörhead was in a period of significant growth and popularity, having already established themselves as a dominant force in the heavy metal and rock scene. Before the live recording of "Jailbait" with Wendy O. Williams at the Camden Palace, Motörhead had released the album "No Remorse," which was a compilation of their hits and new tracks, showcasing their sound and energy up to that point. This live performance not only highlighted the collaboration between two iconic figures of rock—Wendy O. Williams and Lemmy Kilmister—but also marked a time when Motörhead was expanding their influence beyond traditional heavy metal, delving into punk rock territory, exemplified by their engagement with an artist like Williams, known for her punk aesthetic. The recording reflects a vibrant, crossover moment during a live show, emphasizing the energetic and rebellious spirit that defined both artists during that era.
