"Are you kidding me? If you are at all a fan of Motorhead or Fastway then waste no time getting this disc.Fast Eddie's playing is amazing on this cd. He even sings on all the tracks (except for one instrumental). His voice kinda sounds like Ace Frehley from Kiss but the guitar is unmistakably Eddie!This is the kind of disc you can bang your head to (check out "Snakebite"), dance to ("Naturally"), or just rock out to some great guitar solos ("It Ain't Over Till It's Over")If that doesn't temp you, Lemmy plays bass and does guest vocals on one song."

Fast Eddie Clarke - 'It Ain't Over Till It's Over' (Griffin)

"Here's a CD release that I never thought would end up seeing the light of day.As most of you probably do know that Fast Eddie Clarke was guitarist for Motorhead from 1976-82 until him and Lemmy had an apparent falling out. He then formed Fastway in which their first three lp's were great '80's metal. Getting back to 'It Ain't Over...', I personally thought Clarke handled both the vocal chores as well as the guitar playing rather well. This is a heavy rock CD, with some bluesy influence thrown in. Tunes that totally rock out were "No Satisfaction", "Snakebite", "Laughing At The Devil" (which features Lemmy on lead vocals-alright!) and "In The City". Not a bad piece of semi-historic music here."

What in God's name are you doing Mr. Clarke?

"Fast Eddie Clarke may be regarded as a legend among Motörhead fans, and even the first two albums with Fastway was good. But this album is just not worthy! I don't know what happened but nothing works. The material is very weak and forgettable. I strongly advise you to skip this one!"
