A marriage of mighty talent was destroyed by drugs, yet again, a loss to both fans and the music world.
Rest in Peace 🙏
I'm an Australian, and on a trip to London many years ago, I wanted to take the time to visit the final resting place of Marc Bolan (Mark Feld) at Golders Green.
It was an honor and a privilege because I had been greatly influenced by the music of T Rex.
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for paying tribute to another legend.🌹
43 years. Where on earth has the time gone. Beautiful people.
I'm glad someone took the time to visit Steve's grave. Great musician, if he stayed of drugs who knows how far he would have got. I visited his grave a couple of years ago. Another who died too soon.
Loved Steve Took he was such a great singer and musician It's still so sad what happened but I still listen to all the great Tyrannosaurus Rex albums to this day
Steve was a talented musician and a great backing singer who added so much to the Tyrannosaurus Rex sound.
So much talent gone way too soon...💜
THANK You Paul for shining a light on the late Steve Peregrin Took!💕
Y dose no one tied up the graveyard it’s llooks very bad tell me please
Took and Bolan back togther again making music in heaven.T-REX were great.
It doesn’t matter how many times we hear that a life is lost due to drugs, it’s still a crying shame. Always leaving thoughts of what could of been!
Another interesting video, thanks Paul. ❤
A huge thank you once again for a brilliant video.I am a huge T.REX follower for over 50 years . RIP Steve and Marc 💙💙🎸🪘
I love that grave yard…it’s a smasher. Learnt something today…🦖🦖🦖🦖
it must be such a stressful profession being a songwriter and a musician the amount of band members that sadly have passed way to young they certainly have left us with fantastic music.
WOW, Just watched again your Marc Bolan Memorial and Beautiful wooden Bench a couple of days ago ..And now His Guitarist.... Be watching that tonight...Cheers Paul...
See you there Paul bringing bk my glam rock days 😂😂 thanks Paul for all you do for us ❤👍👍👍👍
Great T rex fan in the 70s both artists Marc and Peter died to young their music influenced a lot of todays musicians so sadly missed
So sad such great talent gone to soon . Love T-REX still listen to them today never get tired of them . Great respectfull as always .
An extremely talented man, I hope he's still making music somewhere somehow in the afterlife, in the Great Beyond! 🦖
Thanks for a heartfelt tribute to a great musician, unknown to a lot of pop fans.
Used to love T Rex thier music was superb from hits like Ride A White Swan, Telegram Sam, Get It On etc. Like you stated Paul it's a shame how many brilliant musicians we have lost for whatever reason, at such young ages. Thank you for this video Paul, respect as always mate.
Steve’s contribution to Twinks - Think Pink album from 1970 was brilliant and included his song The sparrow is the sign.
That was fascinating, Paul, thanks. Me and my mates went to the Woburn Music Festival in July 1968. Jimi Hendrix was headlining. The four of us eighteen-year-old lads drove there in my mate’s Austin A35. Other acts that day included Family, Gino Washington and the Ram Jam Band and Tyrannosaurus Rex. Remembered Marc sitting cross-legged at the front of the stage while Steve Took did lots of percussion stuff standing to Marc’s left. Wonderful stuff. Jimi and The Experience were late arriving, apparently due to the UK customs pulling their amps and speakers apart searching for strange herbal substances. Gino kept everyone entertained until the main man turned up. Jimi was extraordinary. Never seen anything like him in my life. When night fell, it started to get a bit nippy, and I recall some people upending Walls ice cream stall and making a bonfire with it. What a tremendous evening it was, and even though I am now 73, I will never forget.
I was a friend of Duncan [sandy] Sandison, the bass player of the Pink Fairies, we worked in Camden
sadly he died about five years ago in the Royal free in Hampstead, I also remember seeing Tyrannosaurus rex at the Crystal palace bowl, Rod Stewart and the faces were the other support band
and Pink Floyd were the main act
Thanks Paul, it was a great video. He died so young 😢. Enjoy your evening and take care of yourself. Greetings from Germany Melinda
I think all the best talent often comes from troubled souls, it’s almost a given that’s lot of the most successful artists over the years have had problems with addictions or other issues
It is very sad they don’t get to shine for too long, but whilst they are here they build a legacy that far outlives them
We should celebrate that they were here at all 👏🏻
Morreu novo . Grande musico .👏👏👏
vila oeste , BH . MG . Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
It was super fan, the late Susan Hibberd who ran the Steve Peregrin Took Appreciation Society and raised awareness amongst his family for the gravestone to be erected in the 1990s. Respect to Susan and may she RIP.
🙏
Rip Steve Took ❤👍👉
That was great Paul , I've been listening to some T REX albums just lately 👌
Love T Rex Thanks for this lovely tribute Paul,Greetings from Australia 🙂👍
It's very sad . Thank you Have a great day
Beard stroke. I fink I found it. Another fantastic respectful reflection. Thank you from New Zealand Paul.
It's great that you would do a documentary on one of the most underrated musicians of all-time. Being a percussionist, Steve was one of my greatest influences. T.Rex wasn't The Marc Bolan Band until after Steve left. Excellent research. 👍
Years ago someone was selling a tone bender pedal that was used by marc and was signed at the bottom by all the members of t rex.the guy wanted 8k for it i wish i bought it.great legend rip.🙏👍👍🙏🙏🎸🎸🎸🎸🙏👍🎸
My late brother was a huge T-REX fan , and I remember how gutted he was when Marc and Steve passed away. Every time I hear them on the classic rock station here in the states, I always think of my big bro . Cheers as usual for the great video Paul, take care.

What a real shame.Once again it makes you wonder what he could have gone on to achieve as he sounded an incredibly talented man.Another gone too soon.Thank you for telling his story.xx
Hi Paul,
Another great video. I can only echo the thoughts of yourself and many of the other channel members comments, taken too young. It’s sad that so many of the icons of what was probably the golden age of Pop music used their new found wealth to invest in drugs and live for today with seemingly no acknowledgment that they could have a future. A total waste of talent. Keep ‘em coming.
A other brilliant video paul iam Finley go to Golders Green crematorium to visit Keith moon plack on 2st of September .
Thank you Paul for another fantastic video and can’t wait for the next one x
❤❤❤❤❤ from Gemma Dickinson
Absolutely loved TRex. Being born in the early 60's by the 1970's was really into my music and especially TRex. #RIP 🖤
Hi Paul it's Gemma Dickinson
I do love your videos! My favourite TH-cam channel!
Wow, thank you!
Fantastic video as always mate. Sad and talented loss.
Thanks for that! I am a T. Rex fan. Marc’s wife June died very young of a heart attack too and even Mickey Finn wasn’t that old, about 60 maybe.
mickey finn 1947 2003.
Thanks
Thanks Joe, as always
❤❤Thank you so much for sharing the video of Steve took. A very tragic end. May he rest in peace. Thank you once again Paul ❤ ❤
So sad another young talent taken too soon, even though they know the dangers of drugs they continue to take them and sadly they pay the price. Cigarette packets carry images of the damage they can do unfortunately the drugs people take don't carry these images , so so sad. Thank You For sharing another interesting video
Thank you for this Paul, Trex never to be but forever loved. Such a waste of a life 31? No age.. it's such a shame some go down the drugs road.. Rip Steve xx
Such a shame so sad so much talent thanks for your music rip stevie 🙏 thanks Paul 👍 ❤ 👍
Flipping eck! I remember seeing the ( now much forgotten) band Pink Fairies when I was a teenager at Bolton Technical College back in the day ( I’m now 67 ) my mates and I used to follow them our favourite track back then …..”Uncle Harry’s last freak out…..! “RIP Steve loved the hard rock…wished you had stayed off the drugs. 😢
My Mum loved t-rex thanks for the great vlog
Can't wait for this one Paul...big t.rex fan mate...micky fynn next...Will be excellent as always..hammergazz 👍

Whilst doing the rock n roll lifestyle(I played a mean guitar solo)I was farmed out to various for live gigs and this is where I met Kylie or where I thought was Kylie,turned out to be Doris Stokes,well known dead botherer.Smelt of lavender.I told her we were destined to meet where she said a rude word and then apologised because it was the first she had ever said.I offered to share my Jack D with her but she only wanted a cup of tea and a digestive!!
