Diary of a Rock ‘n’ Roll Star

First published in 1974, Ian Hunter's Diary of a Rock 'n' Roll Star is an unfiltered chronicle of Mott the Hoople's 1972 US tour that captures the raw energy, chaos, and charm of life on the road in the Seventies.

Part memoir, part cultural time capsule, Hunter's diary is brutally honest and irresistibly engaging -- a touchstone in the genre of rock writing. Republished with a new foreword from David Quantick, this Remastered edition invites a fresh generation of readers to relive the highs, lows, and everything in between of a band on the cusp of rock history. Ian Hunter, the charismatic lead singer of Mott the Hoople, has carved a legendary career spanning over five decades, both with the band and as a solo artist. No longer touring but still recording, Hunter proves that the spirit of rock 'n' roll is as enduring as ever.
