Ian Hunter - Rest In Peace, London Astoria (2004)

"The Hoople"(1974) out-take was B-side on "Golden Age of Rock n' Roll" single. Ian often opens the show with this song that holds up so well 30 years on.

Ian Hunter a true Rock'n Roll hero!

35 years ago Dylan did his thing. He also wrote great songs recorded by others. Ian Hunter and these videos bring back to me who I was and why we were right and honest in the early 70s when I was a kid. Living in NYC suburbs, running around the streets of Manhattan and going to clubs when we were way under the legal limit (14). Suburban daytripper runaways like me bought their platform shoes in Jamaica. I love the glam era.

"B" side. That dates things, Do the kids even know what a 45 would look like?.

Before MP3. Before CDs.

Ian can't really sing. But neither can Bob Dylan.

The music bussiness and life aren't fair. If it was, everyone would know who Ian Hunter is too. A great song writer.

The version on MTH Live will break your heart. Where are you, Morgan Fisher?

Irene Wilde is one of the best love song. There are many CD availabe. Live version, etc.

Irene Wilde is a classic.I have it on vinyl from

a live concert Ian Hunter made an album from.

The record is a little scratched but if I turn

it up loud it sounds like new.I've been looking

for the live version on cd.
