	Ian Hunter remembered
		Hunter also met Reverends Tucker and Baldasaro from the Church of the Universe — members of which believe marijuana is the tree of life — and was ordained.
		After the election, Ian's resourcefulness was sparked, he founded the Valhalla Institute for entheobotanical studies and spiritual exploration, rented a large mansion with two fireplaces, a sauna and a hot-tub and began to hold mega-bashes, the latest series of which were called the "Seven Chakra Parties."

	TrouserPress.com :: Ian Hunter
		Ian Hunter emerged as an early patron saint of punk — quite a feat considering that the movement was allegedly based on the rejection of his generation of old wave musicians.
		Hunter's popularity with the young rebels stemmed primarily from his salad years as leader of Mott the Hoople and was based on attitude as much as music.
		In the late '60s and early '70s, Hunter and band were down-to-earth, streetwise blokes who voiced a sense of disillusionment and failure instead of indulging in the fantasy and self-aggrandizement typical of so many big-league rockers.

	Counsel to international inquiry hails its precedent-setting work on the Famine-Genocide (01/07/01)
		Hunter said its mandate was to scrutinize the evidence objectively and dispassionately to arrive at the truth.
		Hunter asserted that it was correct of the commission to estimate conservatively in order to safeguard its reputation as independent and objective at a time when the Soviet Union steadfastly denied that there was a famine to investigate.

	Ian Hunter
		Ian Hunter’s musical pedigree should require no explanation, but, for the uninitiated, the primer is as follows.
		Hunter was soon trail-blazing again and his second LP, released fifteen months later, whilst labelled commercial suicide, was soon mirrored by Sting after he quit The Police and issued his first solo records in a style reminiscent of All American Alien Boy.
		Ian’s new DVD and 2CD set, Strings Attached, released by Universal Music, provides evidence of this quality in abundance, including classic single and album tracks from Ian’s Mott The Hoople and solo years.

	RINGO TOUR 2001 - IAN HUNTER BIO PAGE
		Hunter's lyrical foresight and percipience were astonishing - 'The Moon Upstairs' (1971) pre-empted Punk Rock by five years, 'Crash Street Kidds' (1974) predicted social unrest and British street riots in the early '80s and Queen must have been listening to Ian's five minute operetta, 'Marionette', an obvious precursor to their #1 smash hit, 'Bohemian Rhapsody'.
		By the mid '80s however, Ian's output was less frequent, being restricted to occasional songs for movie soundtracks, until he resumed his partnership with Mick in 1988, when they recorded and toured for the first and only time as 'Hunter Ronson'.
		Ian's new 2CD collection 'Once Bitten Twice Shy,' released by Sony Music on 15 May 2000, provides evidence of this quality in abundance including classic single and album tracks, a series of rare and previously unreleased recordings plus a special version of the eternal 'All The Young Dudes', recorded live by Ian and Def Leppard.

		Living in Connecticut for the last two decades, Ian recently went on the road as one half of the guitar team in Ringo Starr’s All-Star Band (along with Supertramp’s Roger Hodgson).
