"Mott the Hoople: Under Review" is a 90-minute documentary film charting the career and music of one of Rock music's most influential yet all too often neglected bands. Despite being championed by many of modern culture's coolest names - from David Bowie and Morrissey to the Clash and the Sex Pistols (not forgetting Barry Manilow covering an Ian Hunter tune!) - until now this extraordinary group has rarely had the recognition it deserves.
Features Include: - Historical musical performances re-assessed by our panel of esteemed experts
