Recorded at Rockfield and Olympic studios in September and October 1972, the legendary album followed on the success of the band's hit single 'Silver Machine' and was their first to feature Lemmy Kilmister on bass and vocals and Simon King on drums. Featuring such classic tracks as 'Brainstorm', 'Space is Deep', 'Lord of Light', 'Down Through the Night' and 'Time We Left This World Today', the album reached the UK Top 20 upon its release in November 1972. This new edition has been remastered from the original master tapes, has been cut at Abbey Road Studios and is a facsimile of the original 1972 LP release with inner bag and poster. The release also includes a remastered facsimile bonus seven-inch picture sleeve single of the rare German 1972 single release of 'Lord of Light' with 'Born to Go' (live)' on the b-side.
