Critiques

The glam rock band's fifth album (Fly Records, 1970).

T. Rex's first album under their new name, transitioning from folk to rock.

B (Good).

It feels like a couple of guys just messing around on tape, in a good way. It's certainly no Electric Warrior, but it's fun.

Wikipedia information

T. Rex were an English rock band, formed in 1967 by singer/songwriter and guitarist Marc Bolan. Born Mark Feld; 30 September 1947 – 16 September 1977) was an English singer, songwriter, musician, record producer, and poet. He was the lead singer of the band T. Rex and was one of the pioneers of the glam rock movement of the 1970s.

Bolan's appearance on the BBC's music show Top of the Pops in March 1971, wearing glitter and satins, is often cited as the beginning of the glam rock movement. Music critic Ken Barnes called Bolan "the man who started it all". T. Rex's 1971 album Electric Warrior, with all songs written by Bolan, including the UK chart topper “Get It On”, has been described by AllMusic as “the album that essentially kick-started the UK glam rock craze.” Producer Tony Visconti, who would also work with the other major glam rock pioneer David Bowie, stated, “What I saw in Marc Bolan had nothing to do with strings, or very high standards of artistry; what I saw in him was raw talent. I saw genius. I saw a potential rock star in Marc – right from the minute, the hour I met him.”

Bolan died at the age of 29 in a car crash two weeks before his 30th birthday. In 1977, a memorial stone and bust of Bolan, Marc Bolan's Rock Shrine, was unveiled at the site where he died in Barnes, London. As a member of T. Rex, Bolan will posthumously be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2020.

The T. Rex discography consists of four "Tyrannosaurus Rex" and eight "T. Rex" studio albums (one of which appeared with different names and tracklists in different territories), 22 compilation albums, seven live albums, two extended plays, six "Tyrannosaurus Rex" and 22 "T. Rex" singles.

The group came to an end after Bolan's death in a car crash in September 1977.
