We'll remember Lemmy, bassist and founding member of the British band Motorhead. Although many considered Motorhead a heavy metal act, Lemmy always insisted that his band played loud rock 'n' roll. He died on Monday, just days after his 70th birthday and two days after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. We'll hear work from throughout his carer on this episode of the show.
