Shev's Review:
With all the live albums released by Motörhead, it simply doesn't make sense to buy them all.  That's why one has to be selective in the decision making process.  If you're going to own just one Motörhead live album...I suggest "No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith".  If your thirst for grittier, sleep-deprived, live Motörhead has yet to be quenched, then I can highly recommend "What's Words Worth?", more recently known as "Recorded Live 1978" as a close second.  Not only does one get to experience a few very early Motörhead tunes like "The Watcher", "On Parole" and "Keep Us On The Road", but there are plenty of other great covers including "Leaving Here" by Holland-Dozier-Holland, "I'm Your Witchdoctor" by The Bluesbreakers, "Train Kept A Rollin'" by Tiny Bradshaw, and the classic "City Kids" by Pink Fairies.  This is simply an implausibly fantastic, as slewed as it is sloppy, blues-drenched Motörhead album from their early days, and when factoring in the price, this is also something no Motörhead fan should be without.
