A Retrospective

Three CD set from one of the UK's finest bands of the '70s, including some fine solo recordings from their leader Ian Hunter. Initially, Mott The Hoople were a critically successful Rock 'N Roll band with some fine albums in their catalog, but the record-buying public were not responding to their fabulous early recordings. At this point, the band decided to call it a day, but in stepped Mr. David Bowie, who offered to help them out with a new track he'd just written called 'All The Young Dudes'. The rest, as they say, is Mott history. Their fortunes, literally and figuratively, turned around and they became one of the biggest bands in Europe. Even America succumbed at that point! This 53 track compilation features hits, album tracks, rarities, solo Ian Hunter favorites plus three previously unreleased cuts: 'I'm In Awe', 'Avalanche' and 'Morons' (Alternate). It's Mott The Hoople's world, we're just rockin' in it. Sony/BMG. 2006.
