Title: An Oldie But Underrated Goodie
Review: I love Mott & have for years. This is sorta a catch-all recording, but it shows of the stuff they had beside "All the Young Dudes" about as well as anything they ever did, really. It's a remarkably solid record. I had the old vinyl LP years ago, and had practically forgotten about it when I got to poking around on the Intertubes and found it again. I'm glad I did. Mott's sound is something like what might've been if Bob Dylan was and Englishman fronting David Bowie's early 70s groups. Two of my favorite song titles are on this disc, too: "The Wheel of the Quivering Meat Conception" (pretty much a throw away vamp @ :26, and the nearly 5 min long "Death May Be Your Santa Claus."). What can I say? Those phrases stick with you over the years.
