The Golden Age Of Rock And Roll


The Golden Age of Rock and Roll - Mott The Hoople. Ian Hunter. This song features on 'The Hoople' Album, the one with the medusa on the front cover. Probably one of best albums I think. Playing the whole lot as bar chords sounds the best. Piano Intro and lots of Oooo's, Then: Ladies and Gentlemen The Golden Age of Rock and Rol...
