Darryl Read recorded this track in 1994, with Bill Legend of T. REX, Bill played on this song the first time around with Marc Bolan, and the song was a smash hit!

On this recording, Bill works alongside with Darryl Read; Punk inovator and foundling member of the first Punk group Crushed Butler! Since then Darryl has worked with many a collaborative name Artist --- too many to mention here, but most likely the biggest so far is Ray Manzarek of the Doors, with whom he has made 3 albums; the last being Bleeding Paradise in 2007 (also available in Itunes ).

This version of Marc Bolan's Heb song, Darryl comes from an almost London Dylanesque style vocal, and as intended; because Darryl had found out that Marc was a great Bob Dylan fan, and thought that this may have been the way Bolan could have done it --- but ultimately, its certainly a Darryl Read thing going on here. The track gets thrown into a mean street vibe --- as well does the promtional video film to go with the recording --- shot also in 94, and never seen the light of day until now! Hence the re-issue...

Darryl is accompanied by Jimmy Chandler, John Tuck, and Volker Janseen along with Bill Legend, who make it a hard verison to Beat!

  • hi darryl...sounds like dylan! very nice cover...

  • that's the best T-Rex cover I've seen yet..

  • Very nice!

  • BOND meets Bolan. Strong version.Nicely done video, too. Done with a lot of respect for The Groover. Daryl really taps into Bolan's subtle mannerisms (Yes , he had many of them.). Legend has'nt lost the groove. Not arf.

  • FANTASTIC!  Dylan sings Marc!

  • Very Dylanesque...very Darryl Read who is the Modfather Of Punk!

  • I like it a lot and there's not many versions of Marc's songs I say that about. Great Job.

    Marc and his music live on and will FOREVER!
