Hey Cats
No one knows exactly when this promo film was made, there is no mention of it in the excellent book by Cliff McLenehan - A Chronology - which is a day by day account of Marc's life!
Although this was a Uk No.2 smash in September 1972 it is assumed this promo was made by T.Rex's American label Reprise and judging by Marc's appearance in a fetching Zandra Rhodes blouse, this could have been shot during the bands North American tour in the autumn of 1972.
A video for 'Buick MacKane' was also shot at the same time and again captures Marc at this high point of his stardom.
It could be said the heavy use of make-up and the blouses were going a bit over the top but hey the guitar still looks ace!
Apart from promo films made by The Beatles and The Stones, T.Rex can probably claim to be the 3rd act ever to make videos!
This video plus 'Get It On (Bang A Gong)' and 'Jeepster' are now available to buy on the DVD 'The Final Word' which is an amazing documentary and includes extra footage of Tony Visconti dissecting the recording process for 'Ride A White Swan' and 'Jeepster'!
It's now easy to keep a little Marc in your heart.

@charmek1 i would say you are right in nearly everything except in calling Germany a "socialist " country.I write you from Madrid and i can say that Germanys insolidarity is actually one of the worst problems EU has right now.My politicians are acting the way Angela Merkel wants and she or her friend Sarkozy are only acting in favour of the great capital´s interests...i dont blame you or the germans but dont call youselves socialists.The EU is anything but a union and Germany is it´sboss.

As a dutch citizen who is very happy to live in a more socialist country, where we still have good education, healthcare and minimum wage i am appalled to see how the USA is becoming a third world country. I see now how the investmentbanks continue to rob the rest of the world. I support the revolution occupy wall street. I care about the planet, the future of our children. We should strive for more equality.
