LEMMY THROWS SHADE AT SABBATH IN '81 -- ESSENTIALLY CALLS 'EM "HAS-BEENS" FOR CANCELLING A GIG.

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on 1981-era MOTÖRHEAD, during their "Ace of Spades" Tour date somewhere in Germany, plus concert tour shots of "Mob Rules" era BLACK SABBATH, also from 1981.

"The bill was to have been topped by the Ronnie James Dio-fronted BLACK SABBATH, with MOTÖRHEAD appearing as special guests, though an 11th-hour cancellation saw Lemmy and company promoted to headliners, with Ozzy Osbourne’s BLIZZARD OF OZZ added to the roster.

Though the latter represented a welcome if slightly ironic bonus, Sabbath’s non-appearance ruffled a few feathers. Talking during his band’s first American tour (supporting Ozzy), Lemmy offered an explanation of his own, telling "Record Mirror":

"Well, look at it… we have an album that went straight to No.1 ["No Sleep ’Til Hammersmith"] and all they have left is a name. Obviously, they’re afraid of us blowing them offstage – I’d feel the same in their position.""

Black Sabbath was headliner (but Canceled) Ozzy was hoping to get that spot. Festival management picks Motorhead as headliner. No words just this picture.

Questions Asked in a 1981 Heavy Metal interview with artist Richard Corben:

Why do you think people are attracted to comics?

Look at the way you exaggerate the male figure. Don't you think there's a sort of subtle homosexual implication in that?

So now people would say, "This guy has to be awfully perverse. He always draws these women with hugh, enormous breasts!" Why do you do that?

Are you fascinated by big breasts? I really want to know for sure.

When you were a kid, did you masturbate over big breasts?

Would you want to do some work that is purely sensual?

What do you think of somebody masturbating over your work? Do you think that's a possibility?

I met your wife. She looks like a nice lady, typical human being. She doesn't have huge breasts. What does that reveal about your psychosexual interests? 

Doesn't [your wife] worry that you'll run around trying to pick up women that look like that?

What do you find are your favourite symbols? 

Do you ever regret you don't have more contact with women like your characters?

Are your women strictly sex kittens and your men just big, macho heroes? Or do you feel they are more? 

Why are some of your women hairless in the crotch?

Do you ever want to be endowed as your characters are or be somehow like them?

Did your parents talk a lot? Was there a lot of talk in the house?

Do you think you're anti-intellectual?

Do you feel that we are verging on a holocaust? 

If your family were in danger, what would you do? 

You don't get high, you don't drink. What gets you nuts?

Do you ever fight with your wife?

How does Beth, your daughter, react to the violence and sexuality in your work?

What do you feel about the repression of sex in America?  It's almost incredible the way people repress sexuality in this country.

Will you ever draw a character with small breasts?

What do you think about Kansas City?

Has there ever been anyone whose brains you wanted to bash in?

What if your hands were chopped off, what would you do? Kill yourself?

Have you ever thought of suicide? 

Is there anything you would be a raving lunatic over? A film? Whom would you die to meet? Whom would you be dying to have sex with? What famous person?  

What would you do if Sophia Loren walked through the door?
