Mott the Hoople Reunion!
-
Artist:
Hey, this is wholly unexpected news, but I'll take it. Longtime old Brit rock faves Mott the Hoople are reuniting (reports Billboard ) for their 40th anniversary of their 1969 start. Billboard writes "Mott has scheduled two shows, October 2nd and 3rd, at London's famed HMV Apollo (formerly the Hammersmith Apollo)." The original lineup is said to be set to go.
Singer-guitarist Ian Hunter let the cat out of the bag at his website , writing..."Why are we doing it? I can't speak for the others, but I'm doing it just to see what it's like. Short of war, death, famine etc. ...it's ON."
Guy Stevens was their producer - he later produced The Clash, in short, because of the Clash's admiration for the Hoople.
