Futuristic Dragon is a very good album, people don't notice it because it failed commercially at the time. This song is a perfect near-opener (there's an intro before it) :)
@Ninimini999 I'd be happy to make you a T.REX compilation of anything you don't have plus rare and unreleased T.REX stuff if you'd like. The band is brilliant.
Also a great version of this song on Resurrection of the Warlock-CD tribute of T-Rex by a band called Futuristic Dragon, still in existence, can be heard on MySpace.
even straight boogie or rock'n'roll numbers of his are so far from being generic. his whole approach was different, his riffage was different. cos he himself was.
a great one, thanks....and don't analyze rock my chicklings, get to the beat and enjoy it, rock and roll, let it hit the libido, Marc Bolan, the soundtrack to many great memories in my life
im with you Chunk1969. Im 30, yet i from the heart realise the magic that Marc B & TRex has given us over the year's. Only the true fan's that' Get It' will understand :)

oh take it easy man. i've really tried hard to like marc bolan, but he's superficial. you can't say anything intelligent without saying f...so whatever. blind adoration to a false god got noone anywhere.

marc bolan was cool and all but man his music sounds like some crap ass wanna be disco rock. him and other brilliant people like todd rundgren have talent and intelligence but end up sounding so cheesy it just ruins their messages.
you don't have a single fucking clue as to how absolutely ignorant your comment is. being that you are 26,,and you think you can say what people should have liked 35 yrs. ago is a riot...the only thing we all know for sure is ... you should leave your uneducated comments in your own empty useless head. if you can say something intelligent,,keep your hole shut.
I really must go back to his later albums. They sound a lot better now than I remember. This song is great - quintessential late period Bolan! Gloria rocks too so back off boogaloo!
Gloria was a brilliant soul singer who did the original "Tainted Love" and bore Marc a brilliant son. June Child is probably giving Marc hell about it in heaven right now, but what's that got to do with you? TWAT.

After being wildly successful, he got in to some destructive habit; coke, booze and worst of all Gloria. Letting a washed up back-up motown singer derail your career is on you. Too bad. When she topped him off that was the end for him.

@dummytree Yes, an awesome intro that sounds like something that should be coming out of an "Electric Warrior."

I like this one more than most later T.Rex work. After Slider, so much just sounds like gitterbug R&B :(, but with good lyrics.
