Following the Q4 2024 'Bolan Boogie' defnitive hits package, Demon Records are thrilled to present a companion piece in the form of 'Bolan B Sides', a brand new collection of B sides and bonus tracks from T Rex's hit packed 1972-1977 period.
Before Marc Bolan's untimely passing in 1977, T. Rex were a cultural phenomenon that
defned a generation. The fervour even earned its own name: Trextasy," a frenzy not
seen since the height of Beatlemania.
Hidden away on the fips to some of the band's era defning singles, were some of
Bolan's most captivating musical moments. The 27 track 'Bolan B Sides' brings them
together, representing an alternative journey from 'Telegram Sam' to 'Celebrate
Summer'.
Despite their fipside positions, many of the tracks included might easily have been hit
singles in their own right . Among the many, we're talking Cadilac ', Thunderwing ',
'Jitterbug Love', 'Lady', 'Born To Boogie' and 'Sunken Rags'. The collection also
features vocal contributions from Gloria Jones, adding a soulful allure to some tracks.
Exclusively released for RSD2025, with full song lyrics and pressed on 140g Blue
Vinyl.
