That's a shame. I got to talk to him, although it was more yelling down to him while he was back stage when British Lions opened for Ted Nugent back in '78. Mott has always been one of my favorite bands. Such a shame. I hope he's taken care of.
@catdude57 Buffin had developed Alzheimer's disease, and only came on at Hammersmith to play the encores. But he seemed to be enjoying himself nonetheless. And yes, Martin Chambers deputised (very ably) for him.
fantastic geezer,sounds as good as it did back in 1973,ian hunter a total legend love mott the hoople i was bang in to em when they came out ,and still am today...
I saw Mott the Hoople in 1973. They were the featured band - they had a decent opening act by the name of QUEEN.

These are priceless clips of a great band! They are orginal and no one captures it the way Mott the Hoople does. Rock ON!!

Can someone tell us what has happened to Buffin saw him playing in the Dudes clip. And is that the Pretenders drummer playing with them?
