Another Perfect Day

Encyclopedia : A : AN : ANO : Another Perfect Day

Another Perfect Day is the seventh album by the British speed metal band Motörhead, it was released in 1983. It reached number 20 in the UK charts.

After guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke left Motörhead on their second US tour, Brian "Robbo" Robertson (ex-Thin Lizzy) was drafted to complete the tour. After they returned to the UK, they recorded their most unique and controversial album - Another Perfect Day. Although it is the most melodic and unique album Motörhead had ever recorded, the fans weren't pleased and the band split up. Robertson and Taylor went to form the band Operator and Lemmy went on, as he formed the band's new line-up (Kilmister, Campbell, Burston, Gill).
