Product Description

Album Description
Marc Bolan started work on his new songs after leaving the group Johns Children and also taking a couple that he'd recorded with them as well and started to create something \221big' in his plans for the future. As big as a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Some songs were worked through at home on his own and some with Steve Peregrine Took who would be the percussionist. Tyrannosaurus rex released four albums, three with Took and one with Mickey Finn who would later enjoy teen adulation with marc in T.Rex. What we have here are home demos and work in progress and live shows all of which are ultra rare as it was considered a few years ago the some of this material simply did not exist.

This box contains totally unheard material from Marcs own tapes (recently re uited with the family), incredible snippets of work in progress, unused version \ of songs that differ from the final released track.

The booklet included in the box contains extensive liner notes and rare memora ilia from the Tyrannosaurus Rex fan club. The box also contains a miniature co y of a Tyrannosaurus Rex concert programme from the Queens Hall in London 1969.
