The song takes off again. “Hymn For the Dudes” is stunning, theatrical, burning, empathic, almost sacred – and drawn from the same well that would later give us “Boy”. And again. And you are more than willing to accept that this gang of peacocks and their glam Dylan-leader is the missing link between the Welsh borders and Elvis’ Memphis. To open an album with such a magnificent track is suicidal or just plain arrogant if you got nothing more up your sleeve. All the way from Memphis, indeed. But they had. What holds this album together is Ian Hunter’s almost epic ballad rockers sung with a vulnerable voice overpowered by emotion, the lyrics shamelessly self-mythologizing the band, its history, its stumbling through the wilderness of defeats towards the sudden light of success. In a strange way they make you feel part of their myth, you are drawn into their universe, it is as if the songs speak from your own heart.

Not very inspiring when you aim for the toppermost of the poppermost. The great Sweet, Gary Glitter, Slade and T. Rex and loads of lesser talented guys delivered glam to the teenyboppers, while Bowie (and his American role model Lou Reed), Roxy Music and yes, Mott The Hoople took the walk on the wild side, they were the cool side of glam. Camp, oh dear, yes. England was glam-rock galore at the time: boys wore make-up, silly haircuts, feather boas and flamboyant, colourful silk-costumes. Mott remained one of rock’s best kept secrets – adored by the few, ignored by the many. You would never find me in platform shoes or red silk pants, but then again, I did not live my life on a stage. I bought all the albums Mott made for Island and felt the same frustrations as them as each and every one of them failed to chart.

In between the semi-epics you find some rough rockers blessed with absorbent choruses. “Mott” still got me under its spell. “Ballad Of Mott The Hoople (26th March, 1972, Zurich)” is an organ/piano-based eulogy from the band’s darker days when they though they’d hit the end of the line, the music tips its hat to “Blonde On Blonde”. The tracks I have mentioned are the pillars of “Mott”. Mick Ralphs overlong “I’m A Cadillac” the weakest. And midway between the riffing and the drama is “Violence,” a not entirely successful mini musical trying too hard to be the cool cousin of “A Clockwork Orange”. “Honaloochie Boogie” is the best of these. The reason why you get so hooked on the album. However, those epic pillars are so cleverly deployed that you never wanna leave the room. Another big one that gives you the goose pimples as Hunter name checks all the members. Today I realize that it’s more uneven than I perceived it, and some of the stuff is clearly dated. It’s too messy. Chaotic to get anywhere. In 1973 I was absolutely certain that “Mott” was an album for eternity. It is a slow one, rising and falling through mighty climaxes of harmony voices, guitars, keyboards and desperately shouting Hunter-vocals and then quieting down for tender, silent stretches where piano and voices harmonize beautifully as Hunter caress his words as if his life depended on them, and then the track detonates with a superb, high flying pompous guitar solo before the whole thing winds down for the pay-off line: “You are not alone”. The album concludes with the mandolin-driven, magnificently sensitive “I Wish I Was Your Mother”, the chorus is simply contagious.
