Outside of the UK it is debatable whether folks would ever have heard of Mott The Hoople if not for the phenomenal success of All The Young Dudes, penned produced and featuring David Bowie, an international smash hit single in 1972. Yet in lead singer Ian Hunter they had one of the most charismatic and entertaining stars of era, a "diamond geezer" who sat down for this excellent interview with Bob Harris in 1974 to discuss the publication of his classic rock'n'roll expose Diary Of A Rock And Roll Star.
