Mott the Hoople are an English rock band with strong R&B roots, popular in the glam rock era of the early to mid-1970s. They are probably best known for the song All the Young Dudes, written for them by David Bowie and appearing on their 1972 album of the same name. All the Young Dudes is written by David Bowie, originally recorded and released as a single by Mott the Hoople in 1972. NME editors Roy Carr and Charles Shaar Murray have described the track as one of that rare breed: rock songs which hymn the solidarity of the disaffected without distress or sentimentality. In 2004, Rolling Stone rated All the Young Dudes No. 253 in its list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and on its 2010 update was ranked at number 256. It is also one of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fames 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. youtube/watch?v=VkqQj8Z_aVY
