Shrunken
Heads is the eleventh solo album of British singer-songwriter Ian
Hunter and his first since 2001's critically acclaimed Rant. A bonus CD
containing an additional three tracks was included with preorders placed
on Ian's web site.
Ian Hunter Patterson (born 3 June 1939)[nb 1] is
an English singer, songwriter and musician. He is best known as the lead
vocalist of the rock band Mott the Hoople, from its inception in 1969
to its dissolution in 1974, and at the time of its 2009, 2013, and 2019
reunions. Hunter was a musician and songwriter before joining Mott the
Hoople, and continued in this vein after he left the band. He embarked
on a solo career despite ill health and disillusionment with commercial
success, and often worked in collaboration with Mick Ronson, David
Bowie's sideman and arranger from The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust
and the Spiders from Mars period.
Mott the Hoople achieved some
commercial success, and attracted a small but devoted fan base. As a
solo artist, Hunter charted with lesser-known but more wide-ranging
works outside the rock mainstream. His best-known solo songs are "Once
Bitten, Twice Shy", later covered by Great White, and "England Rocks",
which was modified to "Cleveland Rocks" and then covered by The
Presidents of the United States of America, and became one of the theme
songs used for the American TV series The Drew Carey Show.
