  • Always loved this late period T.REX track. Goes on every compilation I make.

  • Wow this is good...I hadn't heard it till 2 minutes ago

  • Groove to this from the original Glam Rocker Marc Bolan! Damn he was pretty dude lol

  • Great song, still has the magic after all these years. Marc's a legend.

  • GLO'S VOICE WAS AMAZING !!!!

  • One of my very favourite t-rex tracks thanx for sharing :D xxx

  • I was a drummer in this period, playing clubs and festivals for a living, and the black chick singer section was in vogue at the time. It was a musical growth for Marc. The 2 drummer thing was also in vogue...it was all about expanding the rock thing to new vistas. Bolan was a visionary imo.

  • wow this just blew me away

  • Great song, great video!

  • 2 does not prefer Chrome Sitars..

  • A lot of the time, covers are useless; Rarely, though, they can be more than that, like a new interpretation, by someone who KNOWS the song, not just the lyrics. That's how I feel about Maki Asakawa's version of Chrome Star. The literary equivalent to it would be Jean Rhys' lush _Wide Sargasso Sea_.

  • I was really shocked when I discovered that T. Rex had a lot more quality work beyond Electric Warrior. I think more of this stuff really deserves to see the light of day.

  • school girls in 70s Johannesburg were wild with Bolan...our hero..magic bongo beat..ah rememb John Kongas?

  • Prefer Shakin' Stevens re-working of this track but still a great song.

  • @stevi1974 Yeah - I love both versions. I heard this way back when I was at Uni, and last year listeining to the Shaky box set I suddenly thjought - i know that , it sounds like Marc Bolan, and a check of the wrter credits confirmed it, so i searched and found this. Great memories.

  • This song makes me want to dance in a mystical magical fairy forest. Without any worries and contact with all nature.<3

  • Have u told ur parents?

  • well no. because I'm adult. ;)

  • One of my favourites.

  • hi lass . the offer still stnds / x

  • One of my fave T.Rex tracks - an underrated gem! Great video too, Delflord :)

  • brilliant song remeber to keep a little marc in ur hearts x

  • Amazing how these people can even cover Marc when they don't even know his gems.

  • did anyone else get pissed off when Stevey Stevens said

    "I think its called Chrome Guitar."

  • @onepixedpup True,but still it was a stonking cover version wouldn't you agree?

  • great work delf, appreciate it.

  • That is too great, meeting Marc. Wow.

  • Just one more little note look at eddy steels pics of Marc in the Zipgun period with Gloria Marc really looks very happy even though he knew he was on the slide Love Marc for everXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX­XXXXXXXX

  • I got your vibe man your love for Marc is really clear SNAP

  • Tanx for all your comments. On the subject of Gloria's vocals, i think they are amazing and work very well with the sound Marc was creating at this period in time. Marc chose to include that sound and it was a sound he was striving to develop his own stamp on. I can accept some people dislike this kind of singing but i love it and Marc obviously loved it as he allowed it to be included.

    Delf

  • Delflord,thanks man

  • Great Track! Bolan was amazing. Hey Actually Shakin Stevens done an awesome cover version of this and renamed it 'Come On Little Girl' and put it on a 7" b-side of 'True Love' 1988. Shaky will be performing it at the Bolan Tribute at Shepherds Bush in London this coming September!

  • Man I can't go to this Marc is with me in a mistic state wont see some rip off of marc but will do my own thing this year being the 30th megga loss

  • At the time I hated Gloria for moving Bolan into the new sound, when I brought Zip Gun Boogie and played it for the first time I was so dissapointed and agree the screaching...... Thats when I left Marc I was so dissapointed but now I love this period including those bloody screechingGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS Nice that Eddy has some other stuff fron the period

  • Sorry forgot to give a Bolan hug to Delflord for this Bolan classic Love you for this posting maybe on the same wire dude.

  • Zipgun period Marc in a new theme most dropped Bolan at this time now what a gas we all needed to move on with Marc (including me) and most of us did not. Marc was well ahead of us. Rock on Marc miss you will love you till I die what a dudeXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

  • again a great track and nice pics.once i have more than Vista home basic i might try some of these things.

    Eddy
