Davis Bowie had come to them at the end of their Rock And Roll career as a band and urged them to stay together, even gave them the song "All The Young Dudes" after they turned down "Suffragette City" (which turned out to be a wildly popular Bowie song!) Mott's All The Young Dudes album had many great songs played very lacidasically, as you could tell Mott was dying! Bowie's song "Five Years" basically traces a Rock and Roll band's career from early days, rise to fame and explosive death, all in five years. Mott The Hoople was probably his model for writing that song too!

Bowie gave Mott The Hoople a great song, and they did great with it!!
But back to my "Black Scorpio" vs. "Momma' Little Jewel" incomparablity!! ;-)
Here's the ploddingly slow album version from All The Young Dudes, "Momma's Little Jewel":

And here's "Black Scorpio" the way it's SUPPOSED to be played:
