Description
• Extensive round up of all the singles, A and B-sides, by the legendary Ian Hunter issued for CBS and Chrysalis.
Originally known as the voice and face of Mott The Hoople, Hunter split in 1975 and started a solo career.
From 1975’s ‘Once Bitten Twice Shy’(a UK No.14 hit) right through until late ‘83’s ‘Somethin’s Goin’ On’, this 29 track release has all of Ian’s 45s including many versions that were specially edited from LP length.
The sadly missed Mick Ronson plays on many of the tracks and other contributions come from the likes of Queen, members of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band including Clarence Clemons, John Cale of The Velvet Underground and The Clash’s Mick Jones.
The song ‘Ships’ later gave (of all people) Barry Manilow a USA Top 10 hit while ‘Once Bitten Twice Shy’ was taken into the American Top Five by Great White.
