(WEA 8573856432)

From the CD liner notes: "It comes from a different space, and a different place in the world. I like it lyrically, and emotionally. This song is about freedom and that's what soul songs are about, "freedom and love". I wanted to get that across with the song. I played this song to my band and then played them 'Hey Jude' by Wilson Pickett, and said to them I wanted to play 'All The Young Dudes' with that sort of spirit. It's a really great version, a real soulful version."

When the single stiffed, he took his glam ideas to Teddie Palmer and The Rumble Band instead, who recorded the album "Teddy Bear" in 1974 with covers of 50's standards done in glam style under his guidance (UK Polydor 2908 016).

The Honky Tonk single was picked up by United Artists who released it all over the world:
