Rollingstone.com/rockmaps is a cool idea on the Rolling Stone website. Using Google Maps they have pulled up street level images of famous rock'n' roll landmarks. Here's a special theatrical one. On May 9, 1974 British band Mott the Hoople played at Uris Theatre (at the time Broadway's largest theatre and since then re-named the Gershwin Theatre, home to the perennial "Wicked"), where they recorded half of the "Mott Live" album. What was more significant in rock 'n' roll history is that Queen opened for Mott, marking their US debut.
You will need Adobe Flash Player 9 to make this work.
Here's a great Super 8 movie from the Mott 1974 tour narrated by Morgan Fisher.
