All American Alien Boy is the second solo album by Ian Hunter. Because of management issues, Mick Ronson did not appear on this album; instead, Hunter brought in keyboardist Chris Stainton in order to act as a balancing force in the studio. Unlike his previous album, the album didn't feature any of his trademark rockers and he opted for a more jazzy direction. The album is a play off of Rick Derringer's 1973 album All American Boy.
In 2006, the album was reissued with several bonus tracks.
