Wildlife

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 ...

Greatest Hits

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

The Hoople (1974) 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. No, 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 group ...

All the Young Dudes

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 ...

Drive On

Drive On (1975) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Few bands have a sadder coda than Mott the Hoople. Top of their game for three glorious years, one of the U.K.'s best-loved bands for six, the group should have come to a grinding halt the moment frontman Ian Hunter walked out. They'd lost key members before, of course: organist Verden Allen, who composed one of the finest songs in the band's ...

Friends and Relatives

Friends and Relatives (2000) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Fans of the rock family trees produced by British historian Pete Frame will already have some idea of what a daunting task faced the creators of this collection. As much as any band of their age, Mott the Hoople's story touched so many other careers and concerns that a multi-disc box set could not truly do them justice. The parts played by a few ...

Live

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 ...

Mott

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 ...

London to Memphis

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 ...

Greatest Hits of the 70's [Sony] (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

No, this album does not contain the "greatest hits of the '70s." To be accurate, the album's title would have to be something like "40 Pop/Rock Songs of the '70s from the Sony Music Vaults." That wouldn't be as catchy, of course, but it would describe a collection of tracks, most of which were released originally on Columbia or Epic Records, all ...

The Gooseberry Sessions & Rarities (2000) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Mott were themselves a trifling footnote in the Mott the Hoople saga, so it seems yet more irrelevant to dig up Mott demos and rarities. That's what comprises much of this disc, however, leading off with seven songs that the newly-formed Mott (as opposed to Mott the Hoople) used to get a CBS deal, followed by a few in which they auditioned new ...

The Ultimate Hits of the 70's (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Nice collection of '70s hits, both pop and A.O.R. Features such huge hits as Boston's "More Than a Feeling," LaBelle's "Lady Marmalade," and Michael Murphey's "Wildfire." As you can see from those three highlights, the track listing is pretty diverse, perfect for listeners who want to re-create the experience of listening to the radio before it ...

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 ...

Live Fillmore West: San Francisco (2006) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

In 1970, Mott the Hoople embarked on a U.S. tour, closing out their excursion that July with a four-night extravaganza at the Fillmore West, second on the bill to a headlining Quicksilver Messenger Service. It wasn't the band's first trip to the States, but now they were promoting their debut album, which had hit the shops the previous fall in the ...

Rock Hits of the 70's [Sony Special Products 2000] (2000) more music like this

Like Rock Hits of the 60's -- another cheap-looking compilation from Sony Special Products with a short running time -- Rock Hits of the 70's serves up a decent grab-bag selection of hits for those who are on a tight budget. Over 30 years after release, most of these songs continue to be played on radio stations across the U.S. In fact, the ...

Rock Classics of the 70s (1989) more music like this

Rock Classics of the 70s includes 13 album rock tracks combining decent, although diverse, material from the Columbia Records roster of the time, including Bob Dylan, Dave Mason, Janis Joplin, Mountain, Eddie Money, Earth, Wind & Fire, Boz Scaggs, and Blue Öyster Cult. While the packaging is horrible, the sound quality is decent, making this is ...

Rock & Roll Queen (1972) more music like this

by Mott the Hoople

Originally released in the U.K. during the first flurry of excitement following Mott the Hoople's 1972 breakthrough, Rock and Roll Queen is both an excellent introduction to the group's pre-"All the Young Dudes" background, and a vivid portrait of why it took them so long to actually make it. Just four of the eight tracks are what one would ...

Rock On UK (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

Sony Music Special Products' Rock On UK is a bizarre collection of cuts from British rockers. These aren't necessarily hits -- almost nobody heard Mick Taylor's "Leather Jacket," and Dave Edmunds' slick, Jeff Lynne-produced "Slipping Away" was a misstep for both artists. Plus, they span three decades, making it a terribly uneven listen. That said, ...

Collectables' Jukebox Hits of the '70s is an attractive package for consumers who want the biggest hits of the era. All 62 songs spread out over these five discs are recognizable. Unlike other similar sets, these songs are not re-recordings; these are the original hit versions. More than likely the casual listener will only need one track from the ...
