Stevens changed the band's name to "Mott the Hoople" from a novel of the same name by Willard Manus; the book is about an eccentric who works in a circus freak show.

Mott the Hoople was a great band in the 70's. The band's name came from a novel of the same name by Willard Manus; the book is about an eccentric who works in a circus freak show. To find out what the Mott and the Hoople were... read the book! Or beg me for the answer!
