Synopsis

Album Description
UK two CD live release from the Mott The Hoople frontman, successful solo artist and Rock legend, an audio soundtrack to the live DVD of the same name. This double disc set was recorded at London's Astoria Theatre in 2004. The set list naturally includes a wealth of Mott fan favorites like 'Rock 'n' Roll Queen', 'I Wish I Was Your Mother', 'Saturday Gigs' and 'All The Young Dudes' as well as Hunter solo classics like 'Just Another Night', 'Cleveland Rocks' and 'Standing In My Light'. Fellow Mott (and Bad Company guitarist) Mick Ralphs puts in plenty of time assisting as well as appearances from Def Leppard's Joe Elliott and Queen's Brian May. Dream Catcher. 2010.

Everyone!

"Every one complains when you can't buy a recording.

When it is finally rereleased , all we hear is nit-picking complaints.

This remastered cd sounds great .Go and buy it if you like Hunter/Mott"
A FINE RELEASE FROM IAN HUNTER

"I totally disagree with "journalist" Deadbeatsuburban's review of this 1983 release. I think it is a fine CD even though Mick Ronson only appears briefly (due to contractual problems). It doesn't have quite as many great songs as 1979's "You're Never Alone With A Schitzophrenic", but then, very few CDs do."
OK, almost 25 years later, maybe it's time for a re-appraisa

"I once "reviewed" this album elsewhere, saying it was one of Ian's far lesser efforts. I still believe that, despite the fact that most everybody sucked during the vile eighties. So it'll be very nice to listen to AOTGOAT on legitimate CD for the first time. OK, you already know that Clarence plays sax on both versions of the title cut, and that Ian's musical "better half," Mick Ronson, appears just once on "Death And Glory Boys." A chum once kind of bootlegged a "ho-made CD" copy of AOTGOAT for me, and I was very pleasantly surprised to hear how much better the music had held up into the new millenium (MUCH better than the previous "Short Back And Side"). And it's no secret that the song "That Girl Is Rock And Roll" is almost the equal of anything Ian did on his first album or "Schizophrenic." And the reissue is supposed to include the "single" mix of both it and the title cut, so that will be something else to listen up for, too...1/25 - no "Girl," something called "Traitor." "Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride," I guess..."
