I had 2 Mott albums before "Dudes" cane out.
At one point I had every one of their records including the live album.
Saw them twice.
Was supposed to see Hunter/Ronson at the Aragon Ballroom in around '75, but the show was canceled. We didn't know and drove into the city for a concert that never happened. We heard later that it was slow ticket sales which we found weird as the Mott & Bowie shows were all sellouts.
Really wished that show had happened.
