Review

As the mastermind behind Mott the Hoople and as a solo performer, Ian Hunter influenced bands as diverse as the Clash, Queen, Oasis, and R.E.M. An American resident since the mid-'70s, Hunter's native England weighs heavy on his mind. The elegiac Dylan-esque ballad "Death of a Nation" delivers a poignant but scathing reflection on today's Britain, but the caustic images of "Purgatory" suggest American life is also far from perfect. Hunter still combines plainspoken lyrics with theatricality, autobiographical candor ("American Spy"), and sharp historical perspectives ("Morons"). The celebratory closer "Still Love Rock & Roll" shows where his faith remains; the rewards are here for all to hear. --Gavin Martin
