Those Hereford United supporters who are of, or above, a certain age might recall Edgar Street being used for 'pop concerts'.
And it's probable that the appearance of Mott the Hoople back in August 1971 was one of best remembered.
Hereford United Football Club Monday 30th August 1971 and local band "Mott the Hoople" are top of the bill for this rare concert staged at "Hereford United's"Edgar Street ground. Although the band had not reached their peak "All The Young Dudes" was released in 1972, they still managed to pull a crowd of over 3ooo into the Edgar Street ground on a warm August Bank Holiday Monday in 1971.
Another local band "Karakorum" included a young musician by the name of Martin Chambers who later went on to form another successful local band "The Pretenders"
