Mott the Hoople were a popular 1970s British rock and roll band that maintained a large audience without ever achieving mainstream success. Mick Ralphs, Verden Allen, Pete "Overend" Watts and Dale Griffin (often referred to as 'Buffin') formed a band called Silence in 1968, playing near Hereford. Adding high-voiced lead singer Stan Tippens in 1969, the band recorded early tracks at a studio in Monmouth, later dominated by Love Sculpture and Dave Edmunds.
