Rock & roll singer, Ian Hunter, originally released WELCOME TO THE CLUB in 1980. The album contains 22 songs recorded in live performances by the singer.This 1980 release is a live recording from former Mott the Hoople frontman Ian Hunter's 1979 tour supporting his classic YOU'RE NEVER ALONE WITH A SCHIZOPHRENIC.
Ian Hunter made his name as the striking wirey-haired vocalist with Mott The Hoople in the 70s, scoring a huge hit with the David Bowie-penned "All The Young Dudes," and releasing the classic "Mott" album. After the band split Ian struck up a formidable musical partnership with ex-Spiders From Mars guitarist Mick Ronson, and toured together as the Hunter-Ronson Band. This live recording features many popular tunes from all his guises, including "Once Bitten Twice Shy," "Twisted Steel," "Rollerball," and of course the ubiquitous "All The Young Dudes."
This two-CD reissue of Ducks Deluxe's first two albums differs from the previous Edsel two-on-one release, as no tracks were omitted due to space constraints. In retrospect, these recordings seem more relevant after the passage of time, as they provide a clearer linkage between British blues-based album rock and late-'70s punk and post-punk new wave. In fact, the influences of British pub rock span back to '50s rock & roll and R&B. Their take on Eddie Cochran's "Nervous Breakdown" bears an uncanny resemblance to perhaps his biggest hit, "Summertime Blues." But it's Ducks Deluxe's original pieces that evoke echoes of artists like the Rolling Stones, Them, and Mott the Hoople. "Fireball" sounds like a direct outtake from All the Young Dudes or Mott, while the R&B-rich "Falling for That Woman" suggests Van Morrison at his soulful best. "Rio Grande," from Taxi to the Terminal Zone, wouldn't sound out of place on Bob Dylan's Blood on the Tracks.
