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.

Out-of-its-mind glam rock, great unwashed guitars, just don't try to figure out what the lyrics are about, because they're not.

About as good a T-Rex collection as there is, January 25, 2003
Reviewer: A music fan
The song selection is better than any T-Rex best-of as there has been. Not too long not too short. Most of the other compilations don't approach this one.

A solid collection at a great price., November 29, 2002
Reviewer: hypnovision (Long Beach, CA) - See all my reviews
If your only experience with T-Rex is "Bang a Gong (Get it On)" and "20th Century Boy", then snap up this set and surrender to T-Rextasy.

T-Rex was essentially a vehicle for the glam genius of Marc Bolan. He began the group in the late 60's as a wizards & warriors acoustic folk outfit called Tyrannosaurus Rex . To ring in the 70's Bolan strapped on a stratocaster, plugged in and shortened the band's name to T-Rex. The name may have been shorter, but the new sound was gargantuan. And British rock would never be the same.

That is where this set begins--with the first electric single, 1971's "Hot Love". From there it proceeds through nineteen more gloriously trashy glam gems, ending with Bolan's last single, 1976's "I Love to Boogie".

This set is mostly a singles collection that spans Bolan's metoric run on the British charts. He starts with an electrified boogie ("Ride a White Swan", "Get it On") that evolves into elephantine 70's riffage ("20th Century Boy', "Truck on Tyke") and then on to a slightly pared down but no less vital sound ("Laser Love", "Zip Gun Boogie").

Listening to this set, you would never know that Bolan was in commercial decline at the time of death in a car accident in 1977. Every track is bursting with energy. The monster riffs and nonsensical ryhmes revel in the pure pleasure of being young and sexy and alive.

This is a great budget-priced disc for T-Rex neophytes. It's as solid a single disc overview as you will find of Bolan's electric career. Beware though: you're liable to get hooked. Once you do, then proceed directly to Bolan's three classic albums of the early 70's: "Electric Warrior", "The Slider" & "Tanx".
