Marc's Best
Thomas D. Christianson | Ashland, WI United States | 05/14/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"In my opinion,this is the best release of the T.REX era(as
opposed to the TYRANNOSAURUS REX era),the two being far too
different in style for a fair comparison.They don't even sound
like the same band,though both are great in their own way.
With punk rock poking it's ugly head up just over the
horizon,and his popularity on the slide for the last two or
three years,Bolan reached into his bag of tricks and came
up with this masterpiece.
The title song is great.Though out the album(c.d.)he
reaffirms the idea that less is more,with his trademark
compact mystical lyrics set to short two and three minutes
tunes.
And I still defy anyone to call this glam rock! T.REX
is so unique that it simply can not be categorized or
put neatly into a box. If you tryed,it would have to be a very
odd shaped box indeed.I know the music critics would disagree,
but I really don't care about that.Take a listen to it and
see what you think,weather you call it glam,electric boogie,
or nothing at all,I'm sure you'll call it great.Put it up
against ELECTRIC WARRIOR,THE SLIDER,and TANX(all T.REX
classics)and see how you think it measures up.
Listen well to the song HANG-UPS,Marc discribes himself
perfectly as he was at this point in his career.
Unfortunately this was the last we were to hear from T.Rex.
Shortly after it's release,at age twenty nine,Marc was to leave
us.Killed in a car accident.
He was clearly on the comeback trial at the time of hisdeath.What a shame,we were robbed or his magic.
I would strongly reccomend this recording to anyone,there
is not a disappointing track on it,even the bonus tracks are
great.
Thanks"
Glam Rock at its best

"This album is just great, i've heard all T.Rex albums and I can say that this is one of the finest...The guitars are so full of inspiration, and marc's voice is unbeliavable...If do you like good rock music this album won't fail. Other cd's that I can recommend are Zinc Alloy and Futuristic Dragon."
