#GuyStevens
Ever wonder where the name come from? Record producer Guy Stevens named ‘em after the 1966 cult novel Mott the Hoople by American author Willard Manus... The rock group reluctantly agreed. Stevens had read it while in prison for a drug offense. #GuyStevens #MottTheHoople #OneHitWondered

Record show in town today! I finally found a non-thrashed copy of the 1st Mott. It's a 1974 reissue, but so is every other Mott record I think I've ever seen in Canada.
