Motorhead‘s 1980 fourth studio album Ace Of Spades is to get an extensive 40th anniversary re-release on October 30th.
The box-set version is an absolute treasure trove for those who cherish the pioneering hard rock album, coming packed with extras which include two double live albums of previously unheard concerts from the ‘Ace Up Your Sleeve’ tour; a 10” EP of instrumental tracks from 1980; a double album of b-sides, outtakes and rarities; a DVD compilation of TV appearances from 1980-81 and a 40-page book telling the story of Ace Of Spades and its recording from those who were there.
