Notes:  An excellent early outing by Mott. Dedicated to James Dean, this album is full of Ian Hunters classic vocal style and the solid backing of the rest of the band. Their later releases brought much more attention to the band (along with their association with David Bowie), but here's a bit of the foundation as it's being built. My copy has seen better days, but it still finds its way to the turntable on occasion.
