There is an interesting snippet on Ian Hunter's website in the latest Horse's Mouth which is where Ian answers questions from fans. I had not heard this tale before.

Bob Boyle: ‘Will you ever give any in depth interviews on how you, Bowie and Ronson were going to buy RCA in 1974. I’m very interested in the details and how the three of you ceased doing so because some of the RCA stockholders wouldn’t sell. In the new business climate it seems more interesting.’

Ian Hunter: Buying RCA was Tony Defries’ ambition – not ours. Tony would say we’ll be this gang that grows and grows and eventually we’ll buy big. Meanwhile we couldn’t afford the rent never mind RCA. Tony could hypnotize (part of a manager’s gig). It was only when you got home that you realized a pile of logicalities were heaped upon an illogical premise.
