Mott The Hoople - All the Young Dudes

140-gram orange vinyl gatefold double LP

50th Anniversary Remastered Edition of The Mott The Hoople Classic!

All The Young Dudes, Mott The Hoople fifth studio album, remains a special and vital record. Released in the U.K. in September 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" & Mick Ralphs' heartfelt "Ready For Love," the album has been termed "the ultimate document of an era."

All the Young Dudes is released by Madfish as a high-quality, limited edition gatefold double LP on 140-gram orange vinyl. Mott The Hoople occupies a unique place in the annals of international rock music. Oozing style, attitude and unpredictability, the band recorded a peerless legacy of songs combining homage, honesty and killer hooks. As Mott's focal point, lead singer Ian Hunter was also one of the toughest & most inventive writers of the early Seventies. Over the years, Mott The Hoople has been cited as an inspiration by Queen, The Clash, Kiss, Primal Scream, Mötley Crüe, Cheap Trick & 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 Bowie's masterpiece. The album proved inspirational and is still a record that excites and resonates decades later.
