    Dale Griffin, drummer for rock group Mott The Hoople, has died aged 67.

    He was a founder member of the group, best known for classic tracks Roll Away The Stone and All The Young Dudes.

    The latter was written and produced by David Bowie, who sang backing vocals on the track.

    The band, who made eight albums during their five-and-a-half year existence, reformed to mark their 40th anniversary in 2009 - but Griffin was too ill to take part.
