[net.music] Obscure Groups Query

hsut@ee.UUCP (01/25/85)

           A few queries about obscure groups/musicians. Has anyone
heard of Ian Cussick? I've seen one album by him dated about 1983. It
sounds a little like Jon Anderson (Yes) with a slightly lower range.

           I bought All the Young Dudes by Mott the Hoople a few months
ago and really enjoyed it. What other albums by this group
are worth getting (e.g. Best of MtH)? How about albums by the band members
like Ian Hunter (what little I've heard of his stuff I've found rather
interesting)?

            Thanks in advance...

                                      Bill Hsu

	 The album called "MOTT" is probably the group's other
	 really good album...it contains such classics as "All The Way
	 From Memphis" and "I Wish I Was Your Mother".

	 I have all of Ian Hunter's solo work and most of it is
	 well worth having.  Especially good are the albums
	 titled "Ian Hunter", "All American Alien Boy", and
	 "You're Never Alone With A Schizophrenic".  Each album
	 contains some good rockers as well as a few of the
	 ballads Hunter does so well.
