Bill and Skeeb speak the truth. I had the privilege of seeing Mott The Hoople with Mick Ralphs/Verden Allen and with Ariel Bender/Morgan Fisher and both versions were incredibly lethal. There was something very 'muscular' about MTH. Not in a machismo way, but in spirit, that made them unique. They stumbled onto that 'something'. Once you'd seen them you could never forget them. There have been some very special bands over the years but Mott The Hoople were without a doubt the real thing.
I don't care if the sound is horrible. I don't care if it was shot on a pathetic cell phone. This is a video of one of the greatest rock and roll bands...ever.
This video is the best video of all the ones shot at the Hammersmith because it shows the power of Mott the Hoople from close-up.
Incredible video of an incredible rock-n-roll band!!
Thank you very much for posting this.
