Dandy in the Underworld

The phenomenally popular and influential T. Rex spearheaded the glam-rock movement, a genre owing everything to it's quintessential superstar, Marc Bolan. Rivaled only by Bowie, whose own glam period followed in their flamboyant footsteps, Bolan and T. Rex created an incredible vibe and sound whose legacy lives on still. Driven by simple grooves, effortless hooks, trippy vocals, and deliciously fat guitar riffs, their music was infused with both hippie spirituality and raw sexuality-a rich, ripe sonic delight at once primitive and evolved. Their classic songs helped define an era, and their irresistible grooves are timeless. Remastered 2 CD set. Rhino. 2005.
