Mott The Hoople - New York, New York
[King Biscuit Flower Hour 1974]


Mott the Hoople were headlining when they toured across America in the spring of 1974, yet only a few months later Ian Hunter had left the band to work with Mick Ronson. The recordings in this broadcast were later used alongside recordings made in London for the "Live" album, which came out in November 1974 albeit with added recording and no quad mixes.

The performance was recorded on 9 May 1974 at the Uris Theater in New York City, and was first broadcast in SQ quadraphonic on the King Biscuit Flower Hour on 11 August 1974 as part of a double bill with an Argent performance.
