T.rex

Following the success of Edsel’s book sets of the Tanx and Zinc Alloy albums, and Bolan’s Zip Gun and Futuristic Dragon, as well as Born To Boogie, they now present the final T. Rex album, 1977’s Dandy In The Underworld. Produced by Marc Bolan, the album features the hit singles I Love To Boogie (# 13), Dandy In the Underworld and The Soul Of My Suit. Celebrate Summer, the last single released in Bolan’s lifetime, is included as a bonus track along with several other non-album A- and B-sides. For this deluxe media book edition, Edsel have added 36 bonus outtakes, demos and alternate mixes, 20 of which are previously unreleased. These have been mastered from original first generation tapes in the possession of two dedicated fans – this is the first time these tapes have been used.

Japanese only remix album, compiled from tracks previously available on Children Of The Revolution (Tony Visconti '87 Remix) and Get It On (Tony Visconti 87 Remix). Erratum: "Cadilac" is incorrectly titled "Cadillac" - Bolan always spelt it with one 'l'.

The album that essentially kick-started the U.K. glam rock craze, Electric Warrior completes T. Rex's transformation from hippie folk-rockers into flamboyant avatars of trashy rock & roll. There are a few vestiges of those early days remaining in the acoustic-driven ballads, but Electric Warrior spends most of its time in a swinging, hip-shaking groove powered by Marc Bolan's warm electric guitar.
