Free Music Notes for The Slider
Free Music Review: A 70s Glam Rock Classic.
Hit: 5 Stars
"Me I funk / but I don't care/ I ain't no square / with my corkscrew hair"--"Telegram Sam."
T.Rex was an English rock band fronted by singer, songwriter, and guitarist Marc Bolan. By performing in glitter, a top hat, and a feather boa, Bolan was a Mod who created glam rock, a style which transformed his friend David Bowie into Ziggy Stardust in 1972. (Bolan played guitar on Bowie's 1970 song, "Prettiest Star.") Bolan initially envisioned T. Rex as a 60s' Syd Barrett-like folk rock act, but the band realized commercial success with their 1971 glam rock single, "Get It On." Released the following year (the same year as Bowie's Ziggy Stardust), The Slider introduced the spectacle of glam rock to the U.S. with the singles, "Telegram Sam" and "Metal Guru," at a time when most Americans were listening to Don McLean's "American Pie." The Slider is a 70s' glam rock classic. Tracks include:
