Reflective and whimsical, Ian Hunter reminiscing in his insouciant way. Their last UK hit, only reaching number 41, but a belter nevertheless. Still have this on vinyl .....great post of a vastly underrated song. Thanks!

Bender actually did the basic guitar track for "Saturday Gigs" just as Mick Ralphs did for "Roll Away The Stone" - Ronno played over him just as he played over Ralphs. Weird how Hunter did things.
Bender was the man - great in Spooky, Stealers Wheel, Mott and later Widowmaker.

"And then we went to Croydon" - one of my favourite rock'n'roll lines of all time.

Thanks nonoman290...this takes me back. Mott were as honest rock n roll as you could get..kinda Ray Davies-ish this one. Can't wait to see Mr. Hunter on Oct 3rd in Glasgow ! Thanks again mate.

Sucks that these guys never achieved the fame they deserve. I think they're right up there with Queen, T. Rex, and Slade. Although I have to say, Slade are just about on their very own level. If you check out how long they were together and how much output of great songs and tv and film performances. Literally nobody knew who Mott the Hoople was in the USA in the mid 1980s. I only discovered them because I researched them after seeing All the young dudes on a K-tel type compilation album.
