Mott [Legacy Edition]

Mott [Legacy Edition] (2006) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Legacy's remastered and reissued edition of Mott the Hoople's most successful album is presented wonderfully and respectfully -- not even the hyper-critical Ian Hunter can really complain about the way the label treated it. Historically, Mott the Hoople enjoyed chart success with All the Young Dudes, both the album and the single. The ...

The Hoople [Bonus Tracks]

The Hoople [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Mott was so good that the sequel, appropriately named The Hoople, has been unfairly dismissed as not living up to the group's promise. Yes, it doesn't compare to its predecessor, but most records don't. The bigger problem is that Mick Ralphs chose to leave during the supporting tour for Mott, leaving Ian Hunter as the undisputed leader of the ...

Mott the Hoople

Mott the Hoople (1969) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Enough works on Mott the Hoople's eponymous debut album, and enough is so imaginatively freewheeling, that it's easier to think of the record as a bit more successful than it actually is. After all, their combination of Stonesy swagger, Kinks-ian crunch, and Dylanesque cynicism is one of the great blueprints for hard rock, and its potential is ...

You're Never Alone With a Schizophrenic

You're Never Alone With a Schizophrenic (1979) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

This classic album from 1979 is considered by many to be the high point of Ian Hunter's solo career. Although its sales never matched up to the enthusiastic critical reaction it received, this polished hard rock gem has held up nicely through the years and is definitely deserving of its strong cult reputation. You're Never Alone With a ...

Shrunken Heads

Shrunken Heads (2007) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

Even when he was a young man Ian Hunter was the crankiest guy in rock & roll, so old age suits him, since it gives him a guilt-free license to be a curmudgeon -- but that doesn't mean he's settling into complacency. Far from it, actually, as his absolutely tremendous 2007 album Shrunken Heads proves. Hunter is thrillingly alive on Shrunken Heads, ...

Brain Capers

Brain Capers (1971) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Re-teaming with producer Guy Stevens, Mott the Hoople delivered the great forgotten British hard rock album with their fourth outing, Brain Capers. Stevens was a legendary rock & roll wildman and he kept Mott careening through their performances; they sound harder than ever, even dangerous at times. Fortunately, this coincided with Ian Hunter's ...

Mad Shadows

Mad Shadows (1970) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

If Mott the Hoople's debut album cheerfully careened all over the place, their second, Mad Shadows, has one direction -- downward into dense murk. Cutting out most of their humor and ratcheting up the volume, the group turns out seven songs that alternate between thundering rockers and sludgy introspection. This all sounds good on paper, but Mad ...

Journey: A Retrospective

Journey: A Retrospective (2006)

by Mott the Hoople

Even with Mott The Hoople retrospectives now more-or-less ten-a-penny, this 3CD box set is nevertheless one for the ages. A thorough updating of the late 1970s Shades Of Ian Hunter vinyl double, The Journey offers up a solid chronological survey of $Mott and the solo Hunter's careers. 53 tracks journey from the 1969 balladry of "Road To Birmingham ...

Welcome to the Club [UK Bonus Tracks] (1998) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

This double-live album, taken from a 1979 stint at the Roxy in Los Angeles, is an effective snapshot of a high point in Ian Hunter's always-interesting solo career. Hunter was riding high on the critical success of his recent album You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic, and this recording finds him and his band pouring out that enthusiasm for a ...

All the Young Dudes [Legacy Edition] (2006) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Legacy's remastered reissue of Mott the Hoople's All the Young Dudes pays homage to a true rock & roll myth and one of the great recordings of the early '70s -- whether the "official" critics lists reflect that or not. Ben Edmonds' excellent, even poetic liner notes tell the whole story, yet a sketch of it is worth repeating here: in March of 1972 ...

All of the Good Ones Are Taken [Bonus Track] (2007) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

With its slightly dated and stiff sound, All of the Good Ones Are Taken is a step down from the vibrant Short Back and Sides, yet a handful of songs manage to break free of the restrictions placed on them by the production. [The 2007 CD reissue includes the bonus track "Traitor."] Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

All the Young Dudes (1972) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Just at the moment Mott the Hoople were calling it a day, David Bowie swooped in and convinced them to stick around. Bowie spearheaded an image makeover, urging them to glam themselves up. He gave them a surefire hit with "All the Young Dudes," had them cover his idol's "Sweet Jane," and produced All the Young Dudes, the album that was designed to ...

Wildlife (1971) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Since they had little success and seemed to be going off the tracks, Mott the Hoople was encouraged to produce their third album with anyone that wasn't Guy Stevens. Eventually, they chose themselves, creating a record that is bright and punchy, standing in direct contrast to Mad Shadow's enveloping fog. They wound up with Wildlife, a record that ...

Ian Hunter (1975) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

After leaving Mott the Hoople in early 1975, Ian Hunter quickly threw himself into recording this eponymous solo debut. Not surprisingly, it contains a lot of the glam rock charm of Hunter's old group: "The Truth, the Whole Truth, Nothing But the Truth" and "I Get So Excited" are fist-pumping tunes that combine punchy hard rock riffs with ...

The Ballad of Mott: A Retrospective (1993) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Although it was subsequently rendered academic by the release of the All the Young Dudes box set, Ballad of Mott would stand proud as the finest Mott the Hoople collection on the market for close to five years -- and, in many ways, it remains so. The emphasis is on the band's years at the top, the 1972-74 period when they machine gunned out hit ...

London to Memphis (1992) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

As a definitive overview of Mott the Hoople's seminal glam years, Sony Music Special Products' London to Memphis comes up short, but what is surprising is what a good sampler it is, considering that it's a budget-priced collection. All of the truly major songs are here -- "All the Way from Memphis," "Sweet Jane," "Honaloochie Boogie," "All the ...

Mott (1973) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

All the Young Dudes actually brought Mott the Hoople success, but you wouldn't know that from its sequel, Mott. Ian Hunter's songs are a set of road tales fraught with exhaustion, disillusionment, and dashed dreams, all told with a wry sense of humor so evident on Mott's earlier work. This is no ordinary road album where a band whines about the ...

Greatest Hits (1975) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

A petty little package this is, and no mistake. It was no secret, of course, that the end of Mott the Hoople was a rancorous, bitter affair. But while former frontman Ian Hunter was igniting his solo career with an album of songs which could have been Mott's, did his erstwhile bandmates truly have nothing better to occupy their time with than ...

Live (1974) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

By 1974, Mott the Hoople was quite possibly the greatest concert band in the world, a blur of high-energy rock, high content poetics, and high camp costuming -- Ian Hunter the tough guy in leather and shades; Ariel Bender the street kid, all satin hat flash; Overend Watts, the freakoid in skyscraper thigh boots; and a live show which out-dressed ...

Strings Attached (2004) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

While Mott the Hoople were one of the greatest British rock bands of the 1970s, they were also a band unafraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves, and it's hard to imagine any other group of pile-driving boogie merchants who could have gotten away with songs as emotionally naked as "Sea Diver," "Hymn for the Dudes," or "I Wish I Was Your Mother ...

Short Back 'n' Sides...Plus Long Odds & Outtakes (1995) more music like this

by Ian Hunter

On this 1981 album, Ian Hunter gives his sound a new wave makeover. This is achieved through the efforts of producer Mick Jones, one of the leading creative forces in the Clash and a longtime disciple of Hunter's work. The end result, Short Back 'n' Sides, occasionally catches fire but fails to work just as often. Jones' production style emulates ...
