Marc Bolan T.Rex life & death Documentary 1 of 3

[pugilistofpower]

Whether true or not, it's still a trashy little "kiss and tell" And I doubt he'd have said that if Marc were still alive.

[StardustMaeField]

Marc went through a "Phase" of Black women, settling on Gloria.. Much Like David Bowie, and Bob Dylan all around the same time.. However Marc very much so loved beautifull women in general.. Having known many many many groupies throughout my lifetime, I've heard several juicy Marc-Tales; and none involved men.. Though most included brandy and cocaine.

[jefster1961]

@lateinerin1 marc was bi-sexual no two ways about it he and elton john even had a thing going so there is no doubt his door swung both ways..........

[jeepsterrr]

Almost everyone who knew Marc at that time says Marc was only ever interested in girls. People like Napier Bell just cannot handle the fact that Marc wasn't gay and therefore lie through their back teeth in a very disrespectful way. Marc was in 2 serious relationships, both with WOMEN. See a pattern emerging here?

[CarellaRoss]

@lateinerin1 AMEN truth is it doesn't matter what Bolan was....who he bedded etc it's still better than boring

[FaerieCrone]

@lateinerin1 There appears to be a sick trend with these bastards doing this and making documentaries about people like Marc and Mr Mercury. Because they are not around to defend themselves, they think they can say what they like. It's totally disrespectful and absolute bollocks.

[Za7a7aZ]

Marc Bolan must have a lot of studio recordings which are still never brought to public......

[tatia641]

Straight, gay, bi...WHO CARES? I wonder why this question is always being discussed as soon as an artist doesn't exactly look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.

[bohes11]

@lateinerin1 "Marc Bolan is God, what disgrace this creep talking of such a perfect being, he was no cocky wanker, he did not care for money or stardom, he appreciated his fans, these ppl will say anything for attention now, as they never had the talent such as Marc, who actually beyong gifts n insight, he predicted his own death n his numerology hits 33, the highest that can be... he was a gift in himself...this is just rubbish from these ppl, he lost faith in humanity as many true artists have

[nancyliztorres90]

So what if Marc Bolan was gay!!! its not bad if your young and like to shag guys..the guy knew what he did...HE LIVED while he did.  and yes SIMON IS AN ASSHOLE

[Biene181161]

Marc was´nt more ore less gay as the guys from Sweet ^^ - clour in the man´s face was a trend of these time in the 70ies - and it´s not urgent what Marcs sexuality was - he was a great Glamrocker - RiP Marc - let the people speak like they would - we bear you in our mind

[Biene181161]

[misterbearris]

@lateinerin1 what's so absolutely disgusting about being gay?

[daveroxit]

Actually, Marc did tell an interviewer that he was "bisexual," going on to clarify that he had in fact been with men in the past, but eventually came to the conclusion that he "really likes boobs." He was pretty casual about it, as many people were in that time. Marc would likely regard his fans being scandalized by the idea of him being "compromised" in some way by being sexually adventurous as being very square, uptight, and bourgeois.

[BROOKSNLV]

How easy is it to talk shit about someone after they're dead? Fuck him!

[Biene181161]

Marc wasn´t gay - that´s the Glammor Rock of the 70s - lokk at the Group Sweet - they all wear eye shadow and use lipsticks - that´s the immage of the Groups of the 70s!!! All other words are lies! RiP Marc!!!!

[mondoraptor]

He' sang of girls too much to be gay. Glam Image is just for show ! "You got a hubcap diamond star halo ,You're dirty sweet and you my girl."

[alexeltroll]

goddam so marc bolan was a prostitute at the begging of t rex

[Chamomileable]

Marc was a little effeminate, but not gay. My mother was a pretty good friend of his but whatever.

[BolanBarlow1]

@Chamomileable Marcs????? Please let me reincaernate and b ur mother lol xx

[jun7per]

He wasnt a homosexual. I knew him and Marc always was honest and comfotable about his heterosexuality. He had the most beautiful black women on his arm and in his velvet bed. Men were not his cup of tea.

[BolanBarlow1]

@jun7per And also a beautiful white women before Gloria came along

[wisesatyr72]

Marc was not gay he likes black women and he carried eddie cochran;s guitar when he was a kid..he knows how to write great songs using three chords

[Portis1Luv]

If Marc was gay, fucking great, he was a genius, and people who care who others are sleeping with are dead. Dead.

Marc lives on!

[dyserth1]

sounds like you who made the previous 2 comments are a pair of ugly talentless nobodys..marc was hansome and talented and top of the world for 3 years ..jealous ? i think so !..gay ?possibly.....by your comments.....get back to your skanky pub kareoke contests you homo phobics....

[wojtek0000]

limos, good hotels. so fucking what, you're a nobody making forgettable music, and to top it all you're all fucking homos.

[wojtek0000]

fucking faggot!!! his music sucked too. good he died.

[Bluefirefoley]

Did they say Marc was gay !?

[cindysk8er]

I could never have said it better. Thank you.

[velvetjml]

Wow I just realized they named the kid Rolan Bolan? Was that a tribute to Bowie's Zowie Bowie?

[keanuangi]

God bless Marc

[putdownan8dude]

cant they get a narrator that doesnt sound like a guy who unloads trucks? and what was that fat poof bastard smoking anyway

[TheJonMaster]

god bless t. rex

[gary85007]

horrible aspect ratio here. sorry.

[6Soul7]

Gloria Jones `Backing Singer`´??!! What an effing insult to Gloria- Soul Legend more like.

[boldvar]

Hot Love Is the ultimate hit

[Thomaspwgy]

Tony Visconti is talking crap!!! I mean i have all 4 of Tyrannosaurus Rex albmus, and when i listen to the music i have emotions that Marc couldn't have send without being a "true hippie"! I mean if he wouldn't have been a true hippie, he wouldn't have made 4 albums like this!!! It's clear that mythology was one of his biggest passions, as he transposed these ideas even in his glam-rock era work!!!!!!!

[roliexpolie]

God Simon is such a dickhead!! I mean it's perfectly plausible that Marc slept with him, but just the way Simon says it. So disrespectful to Marc!

[robotorb]

Fuckit, who gives a shit anyhow, Simon's a cunt and Marc used him for what he was worth, that money hungry, dirty fat bastard!

[scattypants]

SNB needs a cock up his arse with a stick of DYNAMITE on the end

[marc92thomas]

FUCK.

=)

[sylvianfripp]

This man is a God!! NO wonder I have no interest in most men!!

[toogoodtopassby]

here we go. he was right to belive all the hype it was reality it was his reality the guy that said he slept with marc why did he tell us that its wrong marc is not here to answer i wish he was the world needs a good guy someone with a good spirit he was who he was femine in looks but there was always that edge that said i,m all man wich made him so sexy his lyrics the way he moved the way he looks at you through the photo he was amazing he was different but there is a part that you cant reach

[econoroller]

Look, he was a meteor. He did what he knew would get his foot in the door, just like other stars do when they are trying to make it. I doesn't matter how he got there, we were lucky to be graced with his talent, no matter how he became a star or what all the old wash-ups say.

[bobbybolan]

S N BELL IS A TWAT TO BLAST OUT THAT CRAP

[feldfan1]

I find it amazing how, because an artist evolves and is inspired by other artistic avenues, he (marc Bolan always cops this)is seen as being fraudulent or selling out or whatever. He evolved! he was getting older and being influenced by culture and in turn created cultural movements.He was a genius and gorgeous with it.Good on ya marc. Oh and how bitter does visconti sound in interviews?

[atsykes123]

the best in the universe

[sacarthy]

thank you for this video

[pargaluvva]

He must have thought you were useful, Simon, what other reason could there be. He was beautiful, don't taint his memory.

[emeraldecity]

Marc looks fabulous here! Don't beleive everything you read or hear. Marc was a sensationalist, controvercial and very attractive. He was not accepted because of it, he became even more famous to our parents' outrage!RIP X

[HotMaSherry]

So now Marc was bisexual and sleeping with everyone....Reminds me of the people coming out of the woodwork when Elvis died claiming to either having given birth to his children, or claiming to be his children. Nothing like the wierdos smearing people who are no longer able to defend themselves. What a bunch of chit.

[delflord]

simon napier bell? ,,,,,,in your dreams!

[ZipDrumBoogie]

I was wondering about the first part, thanks ; P Funny how some of those who get interviewed for these things tell stories that get more sensational with time - especially since Marc isn't around to defend himself! At least Gloria remains loyal & loving.

[pargaluvva]

Loyal and loving?! ROFL.

[ZipDrumBoogie]

She seems that way in interviews...I really have nothing else to base it on since I don't know these people personally :O\

[MarcBolan47]

you can base it on the look in her eyes when she talks about him..

the light of love..

don't feel the need to doubt how you feel about gloria.. because of what 'pargaluvva' says..

he digs gloria every chance he gets..

how loyal and loving is that?

[ZipDrumBoogie]

I don't doubt it I just don't understand why there's a certain amount of venom aimed at Gloria. What happened was an accident & Marc's relationship with June was already on the skids before he met Glo. I don't KNOW these people, but that's what I feel : )

[MarcBolan47]

i think the venom stems from ignorance, jealousy.. and certainly a degree of racism in some cases..

marc was a being of love..

his true fans should act the same way :)

[feldfan1]

I feel that had Gloria not fled the country after the accident and raised rolan in his father's country people would feel differently.Didn't she have another son older than rolan whom marc was going to adopt?All the time she was with marc her relatives were bringing him up much the same way that rolan was left with sid and phyllis.

[skilski2003]

Correct. The child you are speaking of was from her first marrriage. Actually, she was married the entire time she was with Marc, as was Marc (with June). Marc's parents looked after Rolan after he was born, until Ms. Jones left the UK soon after she was dismissed from the hospital.

[rachnjoey]

awesome thanks for this
