T. Rex: Deluxe Edition

T. Rex: Deluxe Edition

Digitally remastered and expanded Deluxe two CD edition of this 1970 album by Marc Bolan and Mickey Finn, the first album under the abbreviated T. Rex name and the last as a duo. Features a remastered version of the album plus 24 additional tracks including demos, alternate takes and more. By the time Bolan started work on T. Rex, in late spring 1970, the Beatles had split and there was a perceived crisis at the heart of pop. Bolan, too, had grown dissatisfied. Everything had fallen into place by the time of T. Rex. The T. Rex album reveals another side to Bolan's so-called instant success. For despite the electrifying Rock 'n' Roll 'Jewel,' 'Is It Love?' and neo-bubblegum 'Beltane Walk,' there's a surprising sweetness to much of the album, with songs such as 'The Visit' and 'Seagull Woman' likely inspired by new wife June. It's little wonder that many aficionados, Morrissey among them, regard T. Rex as the best-kept secret in the Marc Bolan catalog.
