Biografia:
Mick Ralphs (guitarra e vocal), Verden Allen (orgão), Overend Pete Watts (baixo) e Dale "Buffin" Griffin (bateria) formavam a Silence em 1968 e começaram tocando ao redor de Hereford; Inglaterra, sua cidade natal. Em 1969 a banda chamou Stan Tippens para os vocais e conseguiram um contrato de gravação com o produtor londrino Guy Stevens, cujo primeiro ato foi mudar o nome da banda para Mott the Hoople, por causa de uma novela homônima do escritor Willard Manus.
