I love Marc Bolan and T. Rex - My friends and I rocked out to this album when I was only 15, "making love" to his music. I can't hear it without old teenage feelings coming back - how different life was then... My teenagers fell in love with my old album and rocked out to it as they started their own rock bands - inspired by Bolan. Even they're grown now and in some ways, it's this music that melds our adolescence together as though we grew up together.
when i was 12 i was in love with all the song's from this album have it and i love it an di love T.REX MARC BOLAN AND U KNOW I WAS BABY BOOMERANG !!!! ANGEL
Flo and Eddie had alot to do with several of Bolan's albums taking off. They added a cool sound to his stuff. As well as, many other factors, but they should not be overlooked.
An episode of "Cannon" has a stoned John Vernon (Animal House, Dean Wormer; I'm Gonna Git You, Sucka , Mr. Big) singing this tune.
Cannon calls his Black DJ buddy to ID the tune. T. Rex the Slider is his answer.
Love 70's TV
Love Marc Bolan

a blues riff never drags with Bolan on the end of it.

Well done my friend...not too many people are up on the real Bolan story.
I still think he was brilliant and no other artist i can think of ever wrote lyrics with such a penchant for Cosmic/reality!
Peace!

Some of these pictures that show only his face have a haunting similarity to Syd Barett.
