Mott The Hoople

Ian Hunter came to fame as part of British music legends, Mott the Hoople from 1969 to 1974. Since then he’s had a successful solo career, releasing a steady stream of albums. “Fingers crossed” is his 21st solo album. I loved his last solo album – “When I’m president”, so was pleased to get his new one for review. Ian Hunter has chosen a diverse range of subjects to write about – the Greek god Morpheus, the Bow Street Runners, a visit to Union avenue in Memphis, and more. One song that jumps out and grabs your attention straight away is “Dandy”, which is Ian Hunter’s tribute to David Bowie. The two first worked together in 1972 when Bowie produced Mott the Hoople’s album “All the young dudes”. It’s a great song, and one of my favourites on the album. The lyrics are excellent with some nice Bowie song title references included.

A collection of hit tracks that wooed and wowed the charts during a specific and exciting year in Rock and Pop history. The phrase Top Of The Pops was not only a long-running music television show in the UK, but also a term that meant that a release was a certified hit!

• Following the success of the first two volumes of the series I’m A Freak Baby, Grapefruit returns with a third instalment of pioneering hard rock sounds from the nascent British underground.
• As with its predecessors, I’m A Freak Baby 3 includes many of the acts who were synonymous with the stoner, free festival element of the English counterculture, with key tracks from such seminal underground stalwarts as Mick Farren and The Deviants, Edgar Broughton Band, Pink Fairies and Hawkwind.
• We also include musicians and bands who were honing their sound before finding huge success: the embryonic Deep Purple, the teenage Free, first album Thin Lizzy, Lemmy (fronting Sam Gopal) and a pre-fame Mott The Hoople are joined by old-stagers The Yardbirds, represented by an incendiary 1968 live version of “Dazed And Confused”, a song that Jimmy Page would take with him to his next band.
