Mud: "Tiger Feet" Single (1974)

Mud's "Tiger Feet" remained number one in UK Singles Chart as published Disc, February 16, 1974

Mud released "Tiger Feet" in January 1974 as a single, later included on their 1975 album Mud Rock. The British glam rock band, fronted by Les Gray, delivered a high-energy, foot-stomping track written by hitmakers Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. With its catchy guitar riffs, driving beat, and Gray’s playful vocals, the song epitomized the glam rock era’s exuberant sound. Produced by Chinn and Chapman, it was recorded at Audio International Studios in London, featuring a raw, danceable vibe that became a staple of ‘70s UK pop.

"Tiger Feet" hit #1 on the UK Singles Chart for four weeks, selling over 700,000 copies and becoming the UK’s best-selling single of 1974. It also reached #1 in Ireland and charted across Europe but didn’t break through in the US. Its infectious energy and simple, singalong lyrics made it a glam rock classic, often cited as Mud’s signature song.
