50th Anniversary Limited Edition Orange Vinyl 2LP!
Mott the Hoople Classic Remastered with Bonus Tracks!
Produced By David Bowie, All The Young Dudes, Mott's fifth studio album, remains a special and vital record. Released in the UK on September 8, 1972, the title track (penned by David Bowie) became their highest charting hit single. Also including a spritely, "definitive" cover of Lou Reed's classic "Sweet Jane," the inventive and suggestive "Momma's Little Jewel," the Stones-styled "Jerkin' Crocus" and Mick Ralphs' heartfelt "Ready for Love," the album has been termed "the ultimate document of an era."
Over the years, Mott the Hoople has been cited as an inspiration by Queen, The Clash, Kiss, Primal Scream, Mötley Crüe, Cheap Trick and Def Leppard, whose frontman Joe Elliott remains a devoted fan. Linked to the Ziggy Stardust story, Mott's rendition of "All the Young Dudes" remains the definitive version of David Bowie's masterpiece. The album proved inspirational and is still a record that excites and resonates decades later.
