Everything about this makes me happy.

  1. I'll be in 60 in June and I'll never be as cool as Ian Hunter at 84 (or any age).

    Bed of Roses is a really good song. Looking forward to hearing the rest of this when it's released. Interesting group of guest musicians.

  2. That was great. I hope all the guest stars don't overwhelm the album.

  4. Yeah!!

    Reminds me of a bit of a cross between three songs -

    Where The Action Is - Waterboys
    Real Live Bleeding Fingers - Lucinda
    Ian McLagan - Drivin' n Cryin'

    Sounds fantastic.

    And - a bit crazy that Ian has now well outlived both Bowie and Lou.
    Not to mention Taylor Hawkins, Billy Gibbons, and Jeff Beck who I see as collaborators.
    Damn.

  11. This made my day! Ian never disappoints…even at 84. At 60 myself so I’m sticking with age is just a number.

  13. I remember my grandfather at 84, and he was pretty cool, but growing green beans in his garden wasn't quite as cool as making records with Todd, Ringo and J. Beck.

  14. That was purty dang catchy. Nice nod, in the lyrics, to the drummer, with the line about the Silver 'Bugs' and (Tony) Sheridan.

  15. Good lawd! Hard to believe I saw him, and Mott, live back in 1974. And, in 2023, he's releasing new material.

  17. Thanks for the preview. I'm with the others in avidly awaiting Hunter's new one. The old bugger's not ready for the knacker's yard just yet. Cheers!
