First published in 1974, this book was probably the first ever rock autobiography, and is now regarded as a classic. Ian Hunter, lead singer of the rock phenomenon that is Mott The Hoople, strips away the glittering facade of the 70’s rock lifestyle, where hopes and dreams equate, in reality with poverty and discomfort. This brutally honest account introduces the reader to the managers, promoters, hangers-on and fans, as well as Hunter’s personal friends David Bowie, Keith Moon and Frank Zappa.
