Ian Hunter Saturday GigsLifeAll The Young Dudes Medley Isle Of Wight 2013 Festivo

Mott The Hoople are my all time favourite band and lead singer, Ian Hunter, along with his Rant Band give a fantastic performance of Saturday Gigs and All The Young Dudes at the Isle of Wight Festival in 2013

[@billidgylab9083]

80 is the new 55.....what's not to Love about Ian? The band sounds like its 1973 all over again! Goodnight Irene....love it. How wonderful this is.....terrific.

[@Insolation1]

Ian Hunter still singing and playing and we are fast approaching 2019 Born 3 June 1939 age 79; this as crazy as it gets

[@paulwood7798]

And he still has that amazing voice and stage presence. Worked hard at his trade all his life and is a legend.

[@lisalu910]

I saw him with the Rant Band in concert a couple of years ago - he still puts on a great show.

[@robbiedominic2558]

Still rocking in 2024 at 85...amazing geezer ❤

[@donnastachowski3867]

I stumbled on this one and his singing captivated me once again....I immediately thought "I know that voice"! Wow...He sure sounds pretty darn good to me yet still.. I'm 62 years old myself here and impressed with how many from our generation are still out there rockin' out & lovin' life! But hate how every time I catch the news another one of our"Greats" has left us. Man.....it's life....we're all getting there.....But damn, if the late '60's- early '70's wasn't the time to LIVE for Music!! I feel so blessed to have been alive when these artists were at their peak, Fantastic. Ian Hunter and Mott the Hoople.....loved them guys along with T-REX and LOVED MARC BOLAN so much, Bowie, Humble Pie Steve Marriott was awesome and so under-rated. So many great bands coming out of the UK....my list could go on & on. All's I know is .....Their music will never die in my home , It's playing 24/7 here. It's 2019 now!!

[@sarahlofthouse4733]

Just stumbled across this.... absolutely fantastic. 79 years of age and performed with more commitment and style than most people a quarter of his age could manage.

[@wildlifereferencephotos3760]

Absolute legend, plain and simple

[@xanadu154]

Mr Ian Hunter. Great British songwriter of his era. Up their with the best: Lennon/McCartney, Ray Davies, Jagger/Richards, David Bowie, Marc Bolan, Page/Plant, Pete Townshend. Absolute legend. Sadly so underrated but inspiration to many.

[@Babaziba]

I loved how Ian sang "goodbye, goodbye" at the end of the studio recording... then opened his first solo album saying "'Allo"!

[@DavidLeBlanc]

He's now 80 and still rocking. Amazing. I hope he keeps going for years to come. Grace Slick said any one still playing rock into their 60's is beyond the pale or ridiculous or something like that. Not true. Hunter is still entertaining and playing well with a real sense of fun.

[@ZZGaming]

when someone has allowed herself to record a song titled "We Built This City" she loses all credibility in critiquing age and other performers.

[@richardfife1601]

Hunter was already 30 with a wife and kids when he joined Mott The Hoople; he was already feeling his mortality a bit. I think not having a lot of embarrassing juvenilia that crowds expect made him last as a performer more than most. Leonard Cohen came from a similar place and had similar longevity.

[@KnoxBronson]

Poor Grace - she destroyed her voice with booze and tobacco, according to her voice coach, Judy Davis, who also worked with Sinatra, Streisand, etc.

[@garyprice6504]

Top notch geezer. Lynch pin of real rock n roll.

[@travelinben1966]

Long may you rock Ian.Fantastic! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@wilkesysublime]

The lyrics he sings “when your down remember that it’s all water off a ducks back” are so simple and yet hit me so hard I love Mott and was lucky enough to see the legend that is Mr Ian Hunter in 2017

[@johnbrain2093]

wilkesysublime lucky geezer. He is tremendous

[@rednoiseful]

What a gorgeous man....:)

[@threepilchards1]

Legend. And for you that are up my way way... listen to this.

[@ferasdamascus6677]

I love Ian Hunter and Mike ronson and all Mott the hoople and Ian's band solo

[@ferasdamascus6677]

Ian Hunter is the best always since he was with Mott the hoople and now are amazing . Thanks for the video

[@peterbarnard9724]

happy 80th birthday ian. Still rocking.

[@dogpaw775]

Ian Hunter - A force to be reckoned with.

[@hudentdw2]

Ian Hunter a rocker classy dude He's done great music like All The Way From Memphis a great tune!

[@kingsleyronald5958]

... a lot of the Mott singles are life altering however why this [Sat Gigs] didn't go to no.1 bewildered me ~ rock on Ian and thx for Maidstone 2018

[@sonny5973]

Love these guys...

[@MultiPetercool]

All us old Dudes continue to carry the news. Listen to “Ships”, “Man Overboard”, “When The World Was Round” or “Something To Believe In” and tell me this man is not a magnificent songwriter!

[@kyawkyawwin1]

Oh the memories of the '70s.

19th April 2019, Mott 74 at Manchester Academy, Ian Hunter still kicking it out there, Fantastic!

[@russwho1]

What an amazing performance!

[@wandahumphrey4556]

Enjoyed this totally!! New fan. 🤩

[@Lee.Higginbotham]

If you missed the albums Mott and The Hoople they are both great!! I remember Mott the Hoople were all over in the rock magazines but no radio play. All the Way From Memphis!!

[@ziggsstar]

Why did that make me cry!

[@russisaac813]

Ian Hunter always wrote amazing lyrics, honest and brutal truth about life's ups and downs. I know it's out of print now but if you ever come across his book.."Diary of a rock star" from 1971, grab it whatever the cost, incredibly honest account of the early years of Mott.

[@guymertens1864]

Amazing voice ....

[@BernardColdwell]

Fantastic!!

[@andrewparker8806]

Awesome song, great sentiments for the other world that was the early-mid seventies. Mott & David Bowie rocked my world & nothing was ever to be the same again. 😢

[@johnbrain2093]

Andrew Parker wow, how true!

[@keithjames8118]

Love Saturday Gigs.

[@gillan5]

saturday .. is the best Hoople song ever.

[@ceephaxx]

That key change from one song to another...transcendent!

[@TheSpacecowboy101]

Still amazin after many years.

[@alanjones6359]

Saturday gigs at Liverpool stadium 1970's watching the mott we invented the moshpit idiot dancers they called us - great memories 67 now still rockin

[@rwh2559]

I had tickets for the Mott '74 tour a couple years ago, and then Hunter had to cancel due to his tinnitus. Absolute legend.

[@johnbrain2093]

He was “the original dude”!

[@johnpatti4391]

Great songwriter and what a tremendous band! There's some awesome talent there.

[@kyawkyawwin1]

Bowie wrote Dudes.

同感です。彼がビートルズ、ストーンズメンバーより、年上なのが凄いですね☺️

[@daleval2182]

69 seems like yesterday till I look in the mirror lol. But I still pick up my guitar and the voice never really changes, just a little weaker and lower, but I'll remember good rock and roll till my last breath

[@anthonypreziosi30]

Happy ROCK AND ROLL!!!

Saw Mott with jet black and alice cooper back in the 70’s front row center at the palace theater waterbury Ct.

[@tommyhaynes9157]

Mott the Hopple were in the process of breaking up due to lack of success when Bowie gave them All the Young Dudes. He first tried to give them Suffragette City which they rejected.

[@johnnysuede9654]

I wonder what's name of the song between Saturday gigs and all the young dudes

[@nongki_kamo_2009]

I wish Mick Ronson were there

[@lisalu910]

Is there any guy this age cooler than Ian Hunter?

[@BornLate56]

Cooler than a Penguin's flipper!

Nope!

In those shades Ian Hunter is a dead ringer for radio legend Don Imus.

[@donnastachowski3867]

That's pretty funny man.....but I DO see it.

[@ferasdamascus6677]

Rip Ian hunter 💘

[@Easternborders]

Pure ahite

[@clash4ever]

That sucks, but it's not because of Ian Hunter himself. The sound is too thin. Horrible.

[@tammylundy8912]

Reckon he was singing so badly out of tune because no one dared tell him so? I loved no band more than Mott the Hoople as a girl, but find it sad that so many rock stars don't know when to hang up their spurs.

[@donnastachowski3867]

And why? Why should he? Because you say so? The man I feel earned his place to still be up there. He's an old man still able to do it,it probably makes him feel good and young and alive, what would you know.. I think he does it well, and apparently so do a lot of other people obviously, the place is packed with fans all listening. It's a lively crowd so it seems.You obviously don't know or appreciate good music....go back to bed , and try getting up on the other side. Why is there always that ONE person who has to be so negative.

[@thesweseyfile]

Fantastic!!
