Mick Ralphs, Pete Watts, Verden Allen and Dale Griffin had decided that Stan Tippins, the vocalist for Silence, was not projecting the image and voice that would propel Silence to the top of the charts.Enter a bass guitarist/vocalist: Ian Hunter Patterson. The group wanted their new singer to play piano and sing a bunch. Ian, could barely play piano but had a rough Dylan voice and style, that the band was searching for. Eleven days after Ian met Silence, the group was in the studio working on this album. Changes were in order. First the name of the new singer was shortened to Ian Hunter, Dale Griffin, became: Buffin, Pete Watts was now: Overend Watts. The band name of Silence was re-christened: Mott The Hoople.This startling debut record opens with a cover of The Kinks: "You Really Got Me." Not happy with the vocal track, the instrumental track was used as it was deemed more powerful. "At The Crossroads" By Doug Sahm & "Laugh At Me" by Sonny Bono spotlight Ian Hunter's vocal skills as a Bob Dylan type singer as backed by a Rolling Stone's style band. The Ian, penned: "Backsliding Fearlessly" is the first original song on the record, and it is a gem. "Backsliding" features a smoldering vocal and relentless piano that is all anchored by the pounding beat...the first glimse of what Mott The Hoople were to become.Side two opens with the first classic MTH song: "Rock And Roll Queen." With the guitars of Mick Ralphs, and shared vocals between Ian and Mick, this is now a BAND and here is right where it all begins. "Rabbit Foot & Toby Time" is a short jam that leads in the album's centerpiece: "Half Moon Bay" a sweeping 11 minute ballad orchestrated by the mighty organ of Verden Allen. Ian's voice croaks and cracks, and is very perfect for this music...."Half Moon Bay" is a must-listen for any rock music fan, this is a great, great song. A short bit of studio madness puts a rap on the original album entitled: "Wrath And Wroll" by producer/looney Guy Stevens.Two bonus tracks are included on this edition of Mott The Hoople's debut. They are: "Ohio" a live version of the Neil Young classic, and an instrumental by Mick called: "Find Your Way." They are nice to have been included, but it is still the original record that is the star here.Mott The Hoople, would go through lot's of changes in the five years, that they existed as band. But, this over-looked debut of a record, is a great begining for an even greater rock band.Four Stars !!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Coming Out Strong *by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2015* As many have stated before, I shall state again. How and why this band didn't sell more records, especially pre-1972 is completely beyond me. They were a great throwback to the original sounds of the genre while at the same time so new and original and could cover the best and write some of the best as well. Combining Little Richard with Dylan and a mish-mash of English and American Pop music, you had this five piece band that was a force to be reckoned with. Kicking off with the strange choice of "You Really Got Me" (as an instrumental and 9 years before Van Halen took a crack at it) and segueing into the hauntingly beautiful cover of"At The Crossroads" (this is where I got turned on to Doug Sahm) and then Sony Bono's "Laugh At Me" you can tell that this is a band that takes chances, even when covering other people's material. The band would show off their skills as writers on the second side, namely with guitarist Mick Ralphs's "Rock and Roll Queen" becoming a staple of the band's set for the rest of it's days and singer Ian Hunter's "Backsliding Fearlessly" showcasing the idiosyncratic nature of his writing that would eventually take center stage as the years and tours wore on. But the album's centerpiece has to be the Hunter/Ralphs composition of "Half Moon Bay", an epic ten minute mini-suite in several parts that seems to combine Doug Sahm and Beethoven and transform it into this strange, new thing. Organist Verden Allen's playing really comes to the fore on this one at the halfway mark before the rhythm section of Dale Griffin and Overend Watts come crashing back in to close it out. To me, this is one of the strongest debut albums ever released. The strength, the songs and the sounds are all here. And you, simply just have to buy it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the first mott the 'oople album: still as good as it was in 1969 *by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2016* from the day I first heard this album, in 1969, I have been a hoople fan (up to the leaving of mick ralphs for that awful bad company). this shows the hoople could rock with the best...and did. they, along with the great joe cocker, could interpret anyone's' songs as good as the original artist'. from the sonny bono "laugh at me" to the kinks "you really got me" they are superb. their own "rock 'n roll queen" rocks like nothing else. a very good first album, and a must for any hoople fan...and the bonus tracks ("ohio" yes, that "ohio") are a real treat ! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/27979469-mott-the-hoople](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/27979469-mott-the-hoople) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
