Every T. Rex album from T. Rex to Dandy In The Underworld in their original sleeves 43 inner bags with lyrics. Pressed on halfandhalf special coloured vinyl.Demon Records are delighted to announce a new LP amp CD box set celebrating the studio albums released by Marc Bolan under the T. Rex name.Having recorded as Tyrannosaurus Rex since the mid1960s, frontman, lyricist, poet and guitarist Marc Bolan entered the new decade with a new sound, a new band and a new, foreshortened name T. Rex. In the process, he became Britains first new superstar of the seventies, embarking upon a breathtaking run of hit singles and studio albums that demonstrated his restless muse and showcased constant genredefying creativity.1970s T. Rex came in the wake of the chart success of Ride A White Swan and formed a sonic bridge between the Tyrannosaurus Rex sound and a new electric glam that would bring him superstardom. The follow up, 1971s alltime classic Electric Warrior followed, a classicspacked collection of songs that included Lifes A Gas, Jeepster, Get It On and Cosmic Dancer.1972s The Slider was released at the peak of T. Rex mania T.Rexstasy and delivered two UK No. 1 singles in the form of Telegram Sam and Metal Guru, while 1973s Tanx pushed all the glam faders into the red on one of the most exciting rock albums of the decade.1974s Zinc Alloy saw Bolans interest on the move, into a frenetic, more electricsoul glam sound with the introduction of RampB influences including funky keyboards and the gospelsounding Cosmic Choir. Moving on again, 1975s Bolans Zip Gun caught the prevailing zeitgeist, channelling Bolans sound at times with a ProtoPunk backtobasics approach.1976s gorgeous Futuristic Dragon was a late T. Rex classic, a mature and confident collection of timeless hooks and effortless melodies including the hit single New York City. Finally, on further chart singles like I Love To Boogie and Light Of Love the last studio album before Bolans untimely death, 1977s Dandy In The Underworld still stands as a reminder of a huge talent the music world lost way too soon.All 8 albums in the collection come housed in a cardboard outer box, and all have been reproduced with original sleeves and inner bags including lyrics. Bolans Zip Gun and Dandy In The Underworld each feature with theirrestored diecut sleeves. Each album comes pressed on different coloured halfblack, halfcoloured vinyl. All 8 CDs in this beautifully designed collection come in 2 4pocket wallets with original album sleeves and a booklet featuring complete lyrics.LP1T. REXSIDE A1. The Children Of Rarn2. Jewel3.
