Would run with you on that one, Bob, about the 'Slider.'
'Ballrooms of Mars' is one truly stunning track!!!
Bolan at his near lyrical and guitar playing best.
Seems a bit harsh in parts, Rich. Bolan had his goals and like any of us, wanted to chase them.
Eventually, he became iconic and still relevant today.
He had records for every mood.
Enjoy the legacy.

The first four Bolan albums are essential listening to any unwashed Bolan fan. This is escapism that we all need from time to time. Never mind the 'jumble' with the tracks, just enjoy the journey.
Great article, Jeff.
However, anyone who knows the full Bolan catalogue is aware that he was a blues man at heart. A extraordinary amount of his songs are based around classic blues' riffs, 'Hot love' being a prime example.

To listen to 'Unicorn' is likened to being lost in a Tolkien book. Be in a world where you want to be, and leave the rest far behind................
