Greetings Ashton, thank you so much for posting this video! I've been a Bolan/T.Rex fan since the early seventies, but I was far too young to go to the 1973 T'Rex concert in Sydney, by myself. I've always regretted not seeing T.Rex play live, at least now, I have heard a song from the show! Thanks again!

marc sounds to be off his face pissed in this ! lol, hes realy putting on that voice a bit

[AshtonArcher]

He probably is! Well into his coke and cognac phase by then!

sound just like concerts were in the 70's , not so technically perfect. Much rawer and more enjoyable back then, we never knew any better either

This is the very similar performance I have seen at Osaka in Japan in 1973. No African females chorus accompanied. but there should be side-guitar guy name

Jack Green with them?
