REISSUE! Originally released in 1977, this audacious and dark punk precursor was Marc Bolan's last album before his death and includes the favorites "Jason B. Sad," "Teen Riot Structure," and the title track. This remastered deluxe edition includes a second disc, titled Prince Of Players, with outtakes, demos, and live versions; plus new liner notes and rare photos.

With Marc Bolan's T. Rex, the blues got its first pair of platforms since Little Richard. Uniting lust, fantasy, and the 12-bar shuffle within the slickest of production packages, T. Rex's first plugged-in masterpiece, 1971's Electric Warrior, forged a teen-friendly sound that would long prosper as "glam." Seeing U.S. chart action courtesy of the timeless "Get It On (Bang A Gong)," the album would serve more as an oracle from which rockers far and wide would glean chops and style. Bowie would make use of the sonic sheen; punk rockers would employ its musical primitivism; and '80s hair bands would take Bolan's glitzy persona as a model for performance excess.
