Song of The Day (again?!) T REX : GET IT ON!

Teeth of the hydra upon you  . . . . . . get it on! You’ve got a Hub Cap diamond Star halo! You’re dirty sweet and you're my girl! 

Saw T Rex live in Cardiff/Swansea (?) with a Welsh friend and didn’t expect anything - they were BRILLIANT!

Most fun I had for an age . . . . . . . . . . the audience went completely mental!

Meanwhile I was still thinking . . . . . . . 

My People Were Fair and Had Sky in Their Hair... But Now They're Content to . . . . . BANG A GONG! - Marc Bolan's Birthday!

 Not forgetting of course that it would have been his 75th birthday today!

He was born as Mark Feld in Hackney, London on this day in 1947.

GET IT ON! Live at Wembley Empire 1972

I recall traveling (hitchhiking - ask your granddad!) to Wales to see T Rex in Swansea and we had SUCH fun they were BRILLIANT! Really LOUD!

I had a great friend who was a guitar whizz and followed Tyrannosaurus Rex  who was HORRIFIED when they dropped all the quasi Incredible String Band schtick and went ELECTRIC. TRULY HORRIFIED!

I thought that was the funniest thing . . . . are you out there Steve Davies!?

He was a 20th Century Boy!

We miss you Mr Bolan!
