This man was amazing in my opinion. He was more commonly known as T. Rex, but his real name was Marc Bolan.He was more famous in England than in the U.S. even though he was a genuis. His Electric Warrior album was his most famous thanks to songs like 'Bang A Gong (Get It On)' 'Mambo Sun' and 'Raw Ramp.'
Marc died in a car crash in London on September 17, 1977. In 2007 fans turned the crash sight into a shrine for Marc. It's officially known as Bolan's Rock Shrine. It fits. He was a true rock star.
In his songs he sang about love, sex and compared life and women to space and planets (ex. 'Planet Queen'). He was his own person and made his own music. He was unique in his own way. There will never be another Marc Bolan. In my opinion, if anyone calls themselves T. Rex they are desicrating his name. For he is the one and only T. Rex.
R.I.P. Marc Bolan...
