A bit late, but still time to celebrate, this time around it is the 50th Anniversary of Mott the Hoople’s All The Young Dudes album (1972).
It is another deluxe box set, featuring newly remastered audio, rare tracks, and previously unreleased takes, released December 8, 2023.
Included in the box set are two LPs (the remastered album and an LP of rare mixes and session tracks), two CDs (also of the remastered album and another with the rare mixes and session tracks), and a 12″ single with the rare “Unlocked Cars” version of “All The Young Dudes” plus the rare U.K. B-side, “One of the Boys.” It also features a 72-page hardback book with liner notes by Mott / Ian Hunter biographer Campbell Devine, two posters, three art prints, and an individually numbered certificate.
All The Young Dudes, the legendary rock band’s fifth studio album, is cited as an inspiration from artists that span the world of rock ranging from Queen, The Clash, and Kiss to Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard.
