Vernon Burch's 'Get Up' (drum track, also forms the slide whistle breakdown) and the horn riff from Eddie Jefferson's 'Psychedelic Sally'. It is Bootsy Collins on bass and guest vocals and the rap is by Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest.

the_skezz Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 [quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1356348464' post='1909339'] Hawkwind - Motorhead (yes I did say Hawkwind) ... check it out here [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p02-77XI1Gs[/media] [/quote] Good choice, I always prefered the bass tone on the Hawkwind version. I seem to remember another version they did that was identical except for Dave Brock on vocals (which I prefered) though sadly missing that awesome violin solo.
