From Wikipedia

On Parole is a studio recording released by the original line-up of English rock band Motörhead, which at the time consisted of Lemmy Kilmister on vocals and bass, Larry Wallis on guitar, and Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor on drums (replacing Lucas Fox). It was intended as their first album and left unreleased at the time of its completion in 1976, and it was not released until over three years later, in November 1979, after the commercial success of Overkill and Bomber that same year. It was released without the band's permission, and they consequently distanced themselves from it.
