Hope his son gets his dues
He has taken me
Through life with his beautiful songs in rhythms
Forever and a day I will remember this man and this outstanding beautiful music he wrote and composed one of a kind pure genius I love you my man my main men
Imagine the average rock star of the 70s most had no post secondary education, no business education or experience. Just four guys with instruments. Then comes the gigs, and with the money and fame, comes the managers, business managers, accountants, lawyers, and the tax man with everyone wanting their share, and having a say on where your money should go, then you pay the band, the hotel bills, the booze, then the coke, groupies strippers, and then travel bills, add on ex wives, girlfriends, lawsuites, more lawyers, and more ex wives, and then bang....your working at mcdonalds or burger king.....fucking insane world..
tommy bear bear very well said !
Gio Ricas HOw the hell did the Stones do so well and the Beatles ?
tommy bear bear didn't mention the record companies, which generated all non-tour revenues to be dispersed as mentioned above. The Stones and Beatles were both initially famously ripped off, with varying degrees of fault vs. blame falling on their respective managers.
But hey- You gotta start somewhere, eh?
As a result, both bands formed their own record companies, Rolling Stone Records and Apple, and although they met with varying degrees of success, they generally helped the artists enjoy a larger slice of the fruits of their labors in the long run.
The Beatles saw a relatively small piece of their action as a band, with their solo careers and various investments contributing to securing their respective long term security .
*tommy bear bear* ___ Sensible observation, but not _that_ many mega stars left such a lousy legacy for their bloodrelatives to sort out....Being ripped off was part of the deal for even The Stones, but not to the extent Bolan let things get out of hand...I like the pre 73 guy no end, but he had some serious character flaws..The way he pooped on his past associates and supporters is totally out of order.... The way he believed his own hype...Most showbuisiness people know it's all a cynical joke....It's so fucking sad, that this rollcall of disasters takes away much of my enjoyment of his work...like..now when I hear those great tracks, the inevitable thought drifts up ..."damn, the dude was such a naive selfobsessed twat anyway"....
Being hip to the scam early on , I switched off after '73..Never liked his cheekes sucked in,duck face bopping imp, cock rock strutting....Just like one of his early champions John Peel said, "he simply wasn't very good at it". While Bowie moved on, Marc kept chasing the wet panty brigade....."Shitter Bug Boogie" more like....
nothing insane about stupidity and poor business sense, pal... it happens everyday, a million times a day.
was in an elevator with him once in houston texas, when he was on tour.
....georgous, fun, magical...
we miss u baby.
Wow awesome
Amazing
This story is so tragic- it's hard to bare.
Yes, definitely hard to bear!
There will NEVER be another Marc.
An underrated guy, for certain. I personally have alway gotten into TRex.
Tara Deasy you are sooo right RIP Marc Bolan and his band mates Steve P Took, Steve Curry and Mickey Finn
Rolan seems like a good dude
Very interesting. Thank you for uploading. Didn't know much about Bolan.
I was introduced to t-Rex after Marc's death by my mum ( I was born in 1976). I remember sitting in front of the stereo with the Electric Warrior album & singing along to the songs ( as the words to the songs were on the back of the album), I loved every single song on that album. But my favourite was Jeepster & Girl ! I wonder if he hadn't have died how many more hits we would of had the pleasure to hear! 💕❤️💕😔
His brother Harry is such a nice bloke
He is. Unfortunately, I didn't get the same vibe about Gloria. I didn't find her particularly likeable here at all.
Cut throat biz in a cut throat world. Sad to see Gloria and his son all but forgotten at the time this was made. Hope things have improved for them.
June Child was uncommonly beautiful.
It's horrible how much his family was disrespected in all of this
As his once good friend Elton said a few years ago, when asked to give advice to young pop stars, don't sign anything until you get a good Lawyer to look through the small print, forgetting to emphasise the word good.
marc bolan was the 70s there was only marc there will never be another a lot of the stars from 70s were ripped off by managers sweet and the bay city rollers come to mind its a shame these people were worked to the ground and were left with nothing they sold millions upon millions of singles lps and cassettes these people were real stars marc bolan is so fantasic he will never be forgotten r.i.p marc your music always makes me smile thank you for the beautiful memories
How nice of drummer bill legend to say he was on fifty quid and still rocked on when bill was playing he put everything into his drumming brill drummer
My first single was bought for me by my mum 20th century boy. I had a poster of him above my bed that used to fall on me and my mum would put it back up. I was very young as only born in '68. To this day I still love his music.
Indeed many stars DID leave. I distinctly remember going to Hong Kong in to a bank in one of the sky scrapers. There were literally hundreds of brass plates with names all over the wall.. head offices for people like 'Pan's People' (remember them?) and loads of famous musicians too.
The lawyer and trust manager look like they are quite pleased with themselves. Looks sounds like they have profitted throughout the years on Wizard Trust Ltd Bahamas/Caymans.
And they still wanted the money to talk on the documentary. No shame at all, just filth.
I won't ever buy a Marc Bolan or T Rex record ever. If his family isn't getting any part of the money, then I certainly won't pay the vultures that are robbing them.
Could not agree more snakes in the grass springs to mind
Bankers, lawyers and accountants: You can't expect them to work for free. Wow. What scoundrels. Never heard this story until now.
They are ripping off merchants they don’t own T. rex they didn’t agree to owning his profits.
After death they need prosecuting all these contractors they profit from dead people it’s not right , Marc didn’t sell his business in his before life? He didn’t sell his death warrant did he? because it’s all looking like it, when someone dies that’s it for them no more money from him means finished , but his band mates are here they should get a share equal with Marc’s families it’s not adding up
Same old story, same old song, bankers, lawyers and accountants are the only ones left smiling in all this, wankers the lot of them
It was Marc's doing tho. All set up to avoid tax. He would have been better off paying his band decent wages and keeping it simple. But that's hindsight I guess. None of us think we are going to die....
Legalised Robberyscum they are.
@@The000clash000 Exactly right, he paid them a pittance. Should have paid them
a lot more to offset tax but the top rates were obscenely brutal and crippling,
insane...so, in fact, they in turn could have been clobbered by the taxman.
These top stars were trapped every which way, tbh.
Managers accountants, bankers , biggest Crooks going bet they was the one's who give him the advice bet it's in their back pockets.
@@stevenwalker2297 je scruwed elewator
see what happens if you try to avoid paying taxes by putting your money in the hands of lawyers.
Well put :D
Moral of the story, do NOT let other people have control of YOUR money!
*@Maurice Upton* __ Wow ! Thanks for that advice !...where bytheway do *YOU* park your money ?
He got what he wanted. I some TRex at Santa Monica Civic around 1970 and the audience went nuts. "Get It On" was ruling the charts. For a while anyway. Along with "Spirit In the Sky". Then somehow they crashed and burned.
The mother of his son was a backup singer with TRex and she was great. I remember her at the Civic very well. She really added to Bolan's sound and was gorgeous.
clarkewi Get it On was released in July 1971, so it wasn’t 1970, that I’m very certain of as a huge T.Rex fan. Norman Greenbaums ‘ Spirit in the Sky ‘ was Number 1 in 1970, the only hit T.Rex had in 1970 and released in the October was Ride a White Swan which stalled at Number 2 going into early 1971. The first Single release of 1971 for T.Rex was Hot Love, which became the Groups first of 4 Number 1s.
You’re getting mixed up with the Songs and dates by the looks of things.
@@ilovesmysangsomsangsom3500 Sorry, I'm an old man. It's all a blur to me. But thanks for the clarification. I am a longtime TRex fan from BERORE "Get it On". I saw TRex at the Santa Monica Civic around the time "Get It On" was topping the charts. Great show. The "Doobie Brothers" opened it. Another great band.
all that money and his parents were still living in the council flat !
+mo1912 That's what I was tripping on?
Everything was in play, but like they said, he died "prematurely" - dumn-ass ~
Not everyone wants to move from their home just because they can.
mo1912 Marc’s parents were quite happy living where they lived and never wanted a huge house etc as they were just two. Marc offered to buy them a home, but they were just normal folk who didn’t want any change in their life. Marc’s Dad Sid used to look after Marc’s Rolls Royce on occasion and give his old friends lifts in it to and from the pub etc.
They would allow fans into their home regular, no heirs or graces with Sid & Phyllis, lovely people.
I'm pleased to read this. I did wonder.
I wish Bolan's lawyer would wiped that f****** smirk off his face! What's his f****** problem man!??
Sorry
What a tragic end, the bankers seem to be the benefactors here. His family were treated shabbily, ie, buying Marc's items from the estate, I hope what family is left get their inheritance.
After Lennon died, Yoko Ono asked his son Julian to pay for any effects of John's he might want.
@@billcobbett9259 yoko was a bitch to Julian. He shouldn't have had to pay for his own belongings that were important to him because they were things from his dad.
@@billcobbett9259 Yoko is a piece of crap. I'm glad Julian has done well for himself.
I love the roadie, Micky O'Halleran. " it would have been great if (the will) had said I love my roadie, Mickey O' Halleran....or even: 'he was a tosser'"!!!!
he didn't "leave" his family...she drove him into a freakin tree!! and she got plenty of money from Bowie. which she used to flee to the US before they brought charges against her. nice.
Never trusted her she seems fake
@@debraodonnell4253 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaqqqq aqqqqqqq I love you too baby I love you too much baby I
Exactly! She should have been held accountable and faced charges.
@@natalie8212 for being in a car-crash?
Nothing to do with her colour, I'm sure.
Nasty mind you have.
The money went to his wife.
Though Rolan get his inheritance, in 1994, when Bolan's wife, June, died.
@@anRoisinDubh It has zero to do with race. She imposed herself onto Marc's songs and insisted she was in the foreground. He was all fucked up on cocaine thanks to Gloria and her drug dealing brother. Zip Gun and most everything thereafter was unlistenable because of Gloria's thirst for fame, yet lack of talent to get there herself. Why did she leave the country so quickly? Why did she evade question?
She killed him. Straight up. I could give a fuck less what race she is.
I couldn't understand why Gloria was not charged if she was driving. Wikipedia says she was over the limit and was charged to appear for being 'unfit to drive' but skipped the country. This affects how sympathetic most viewers will be . I am surprised she hasn't been ordered to come back and answer charges or clear her name.
That is correct, she was charged, but skipped bail and fled to New York and a warrant for her arrest was issued back in the UK and extradition papers were filed. However, some years later, she was back in the UK for concerts and TV appearances. Nothing mentioned regarding the outstanding warrant and extradition papers filed against her. As if it never happened.
@@liberationlondon5946 Maybe that's where a lot of the money went, buying her freedom. She should have faced serious consequences as his death was 100% her fault.
Don’t believe everything you read in Wikipedia. They don’t always tell the truth.
Liberation London That is a lie. She was cleared of any drunk driving charges
@Lindylou - I read where Gloria was cleared of charges for drunk driving as so many witnesses came forward who testified that she was NOT drunk.
Electric Warrior remains such a groundbreaking 70s Pop Rock album.
TRex at their finest😎👍
hi, I have my original Lp. I bought it from Woolworths in Hunstanton Uk in 1971. take care
@@tonyn9858 I can’t recall exactly where I bought the album in late 71 but it was a constant play right throughout late 71 and the whole of 72. Top rate album that remains timeless he really was the real deal😎👌
At the time this happened,I lived a few yards from the accident site, the lovely tributes to were a mess for years, though looks beautiful now, I enjoy visiting to see new tributes
His brother seems nice and decent
@Mary Ellen - His brother seems poor. Marc probably never helped his brother out financially either since he let his mum and dad live in a counsel flat. The first thing Elvis Presley did when he got rich and famous was to buy the Graceland mansion in Memphis for his mum and dad.
@@honeylambb9864 Gladys never got used to this rich way of living😞she was a nice cherokee 😑and England is not America nothing to compare😕
@@sandyotelli8886 i heard david bowie helped gloria and Rolan when his daddy passed
It wouldnt suprise me. That may be why they never found the money.someone had control over it
Why shouldn't he be . What a pointless comment
He sounded like a proper selfish little git ..
in the 70's some of the british Rockers were living in Florida because of taxes, Florida has no state income tax
Barry Gibb still lives there
Tragic, the guy should still be here, way too young!
Life is soo sad, you don’t realise how lucky you are if you’re happy, because there are soo many that aren’t!
I know an old line, and it is so true:" It would better if, like on nice places, life would show is signs like 'this is your happy time!' when it happens.
There are way too many people which, without that sign,miss it and only know when it's over and too late'.
i heard a lot in the late 1960s and Early 1970s lot of these pop stars got ripped off so sad reallt loved to see wat marc would have been doin now
I feel very sad for June, Gloria and Roland! Mark Bolan’s untimely death caused a shock wave that continues to this day. I really hope that the people that were mentioned in his will are able to get what is rightly theirs. Roland Bolan is the most important one that needs to be given what is his birthright! I hope that him and his mother are able to enjoy life, and have a long happy life! God Bless!
Its rolan
@@iancollinson4865 Gotcha! Thanks for informing me of that. Have a great holiday season, God bless you, and keep you safe and well!
I remember that John Lennon wrote off his 1st son in the will. His wife was not friendly or caring about the issue to make right to Julian.
@Kitten Lyric He said on TV that he had to buy his dad's own belongings because yoko refused to give him those things, imagine asking a child to buy his father's own stuff
Also yoko was selling John's stuff so what's the big deal abt Julian doing the same
jojo bean Yoko was the spouse, it’s the Law - small detail, but very big deal. Children inherit when the last parent or current spouse dies, not when there’s still one of the Spouses who just lost their husband.
MY heart from all this I cannot believe, I cannot even catch my breath tearsssssss
Sounds like his lawyers got it all
Poor June. She was marcs back bone.tried to keep him straight.marc loved the limelight and lived in the fast lane ,was probably easily led and got bored easily.he was intelligent though.i feel sorry for June gloria rolan and harry.theyre all suffering.its also weird that June and half the band all died early.the wheels on that car weren't right..it had passed an not yet the nuts and air pressure were wrong.then there was the break in at his house and all his stuff had been removed.someone had the key!!
I feel the situation leading up to Marc's death is crazy. How did an American lady who probably never drove a stick shift car and driving on a side of the road she would have never been used to driving on. plus drinking he never had a chance to get home that night.
black polished chrome What a ridiculous statement, she’d been in the U.K. years and knew how to drive.
And if you care to read the actual inquest, drink played no part in the accident, there are many witnesses to prove that also.
Didn’t you hear what the Accident Investigator said on the Programme about the Wheel Nuggets and Tyre Pressure?.......or do you just go along with your assessment and what you think is correct? Obviously you know more than us regarding Gloria and her driving habits.......err NO!!
@Drew 2U Well you seem to know, tell us more please......and give us some of your sage like Relationship advice too. Would it be different if June was driving then?........
Newsflash...we have stick shift cars in America and windy roads too! And we know how to handle both.
Manage your own affairs that’s the moral of this story.
@susan brown - Marc probably would have burned through the money even faster if he had "managed" it himself. He said in that interview clip they showed that he was no businessman. He needed much better, more objective advice than he got, though. He needed 2nd and 3rd opinions and references from actual clients - that sort of thing, not taken the advice of people who had lots to gain from him.
I hope it worked out well for Roland , and there are so many injured souls from the whole event ! God bless them ///UK
For gods sake at least spell his name correctly
it's incredible they kicked this woman out of her man's house and basically out of the country.
They didn’t. She ran back to the States when the police looked like they were going to arrest Gloria for the car accident..
Combine the loose wheel nuts with the timing of his death and marital status, and you have a realistic script for a true murder mystery.
I agree.
What's to stop Jimmy Savile interfering with his car?
There is nothing in the doc about Gloria's account of the crash. Wasn't she driving?? What happened?? As a Yank, I don't think I could ever get used to driving on the left side of the road with the steering wheel on the right side of the car. Especially at 4 a.m. after drinking wine.
@@sportsmediaamerica i reckon Gloria was more the target than Marc. Someone didn't expect the couple loose wheel nuts to not wear loose during the first excursion after car came out the garage. I'm not suggesting garage staff had any motive. The someone prob thought that Marc would be utilising a different vehicle or transportation during that week. The daggers were pointed at Gloria just a guess
Obviously Marc can be excluded from any intrigues here.
Poor June. The situation she was put in, not only by Mark, but even worse, the inland revenue was absolutely horrendous.
June was there when there was nothing but a belief in Mark's talent, when they went to a friend's flat for a once a week bath.
Outrageous. If a couple is in a business relationship as well as personal, some kind of legal documents should be drawn up to take care of the different parties.
When emotions are involved, even the best people can behave very badly. I have been on the receiving end of it, and seen others treat each other like crap.
I am happier than I have ever been, I gave up all my financial rights, and was bitter and hurt for a while, more from the principle, that my ex could treat anyone that way, not providing for our daughters, but they are both hardworking, and both sides of the family stepped up when they were younger. The happiness in my life, to feel the way I do now, is priceless.
Now I have no money, have an amazing job that gives me so much pleasure, but on the journey, I learned that money gives one freedom to do things to make our community better, to help those who can't afford to help themselves, and travel.
I have been wealthy and poor, the peace of mind I now experience is priceless and exciting.
Thx for sharing your experiences, June perhaps had less resources in her heartbreak, holding false hope of reconciliation. Your strength was possibly the warrior spirit fighting for your independence. I congratulate you on achieving this,an inspiration through overcoming challenge.
If i had that type of money I would have looked after my parents and family.
+stanley james quite right, why oh why do people put money management in the hands of the untrustworthy, he should have got his brother to watch over all the ins and outs, basic maths mostly......
And his bandmembers..
And other indispensable people like his longtime loyal roadie.
He offered to buy his parents a beautiful home and they said no they were happy in their council flat
Think they should make a film about his life. Jonny Depp as the lead. He could handle our British accent just about. I know cars were not as road worthy as they are today but the damage on that car looked like it was going a lot faster than suggested.
Depp is 54 and looks it, whereas Bolan died at 29...
You would be shocked if you knew what Hollywood can do with makeup. I think it would be wonderful to have a movie made from such a pioneer in music from the 70s to the present.
Yes I forgot when I ticked he's too old to play him
I think there was something sinister in his death. The cars lug nuts were loosened and also didnt have proper air in the tires. His brother went to ID his body and by then the house was already raided and everything mostly stolen. I remember in a interview Marc said he had crates and crates of writings and poetry he wanted to eventually have made into books. I personally believe someone wanted Marc dead. I think he was brilliant and so what if he had an ego....he was only 29 and Im sure the pressure of touring and then a new son was alot for him. June loved him I do believe until the day she died. I also believe he loved June although the rock n roll lifestyle broke them apart. Love Marc forever and will always be my Main Man.
Johnny is now too old to play Marc sadly but he does look alot like him
June was so much better for Marc, she was able to help keep him on the right path and helped his career take off. He also said she's the only person who had a brain similar to his so I feel like they were eachother's equal (here's the interview he mentioned said that about June: th-cam.com/video/i9qmWK695-4/w-d-xo.html)
When with gloria the decline in his career started and I just don't trust what she says, Marc or June isn't here to tell their side of the story.
Also June said in an interview once that she thought she and Marc would've got back together had it not been for his death. She said that in June of 1977 they were both at the same event with their own group of friends but just as he was about to leave he asked her to go with him and they spent the day together while goria was away in America. She also said Marc was unhappy with gloria. Marc also told June "if you hadn't have left, none of this would've happened". (Here's the interview she mentioned about her and Marc getting back together: th-cam.com/video/APYOCZ8zX-I/w-d-xo.html)
I think Marc didn't finalise his divorce from June because he still loved her.
You read too many romantic novels. You don’t know and the facts are what they are, he wasn’t with June he was with Gloria.
What a bunch of nonsense 🤣🤣
@Chantelle Adlington - This sounds like blaming Elvis' downfall on his love of grilled banana and peanut butter sandwiches.
@@mr_yona_hd it's not hard for you to just look it up and discover the truth. Marc wanted June and I'm just stating the facts.
@@MossyMozart Marc never divorced June, that says it all and I've literally shown the proof that he loved June in my comment. What more do you want? 🤣
Robbed left right and centre like the bay city rollers left with absolutely nothing
OMG-thank you for uploading this, been waiting so long for this.
everyone dreams of being a superstar rocker making millions,this was an incredible eye opener.
Thank you for the upload.
Gloria clearly felt no remorse for cheating with Marc. Nice smarmy smile from the lawyer when he says he wouldn't discuss his 'clients' matters.
@Kitten Lyric clearly not
Kitten Lyric She was NOT drunk! Why do people like you persist in promoting that lie?
Wanna see something crazy? Freeze at 30:24 and look closely at the speaker monitor on the left. The shadow on the white cone looks like
Marc with the top hat on. At first I thought it was a small picture of him. Pareidolia at work.
so who gets his money now? I can imagine that his albums are still selling if not more today, where does that money go? a very sad film never knew this dark side of marc's life makes me very sad for him and his family
@Marcial Silva - The people who manage the trust get the money. They didn't move to the Caymans because the place had trust fund laws that are friendly to surviving family members, after all. The documentary makers should have followed the money upstream, from a single album purchase backwards to the people who ultimately deposit the money in their own offshore accounts. It's like the Watergate criminal conspiracy informant, "Deep Throat" (Mark Felt) said to Woodward and Bernstein, "Follow the money."
I've been to the crash site. Despite being on the side of a busy road, it feels like a little haven for Marc. It felt quiet and respectful. What a loss....
why was the company that serviced Marc's car not sued for properly tightening the lug nuts on the wheel of the car? RIP
those were bad bad days for musicians and money.............
Not much better nowadays unfortunately
regardless of who has the 'rights' to Bolan's money, someone should have the conscience to let Rolan have some share ........ why is it that money is so much more important than anything else, and what good does it do just sitting in an offshore account...the man who truly earned it should have his family enjoy some of it.
Awesome to see that the people who deserved the money got the money 😁
A big thanks to Mark for my awesome life style thank you Mark
He had a decent loving brother, he didn't seem to value good people enough. A great pop star.
If the trust is now in the Caymans then maybe the out of wedlock rule doesn't happen anymore.
So sad , its always about money.
What a wonderful woman, no wonder Marc loved Gloria so much, God bless her for the wonderful job she did with Rolan after she was left with nothing, she was broken, heartbroken and broke.
I believe they were looked after financially by David Bowie.
I disagree. Never trusted her. The songs they recorded together are unlistenable due to her insistence that her vocals be 10× louder than his. Leaving June was the worst mistake of his life. Gloria literally lead him to his demise.
@@natalie8212 - Marc alone was responsible for his own decisions. He seemed blissed out by his little family, but failed miserably to guard its future.
Wow!!! This is a disgraceful.. The son should get all of them...
Breaks my heart.....
The first record i remember and heard in the early seventies was a t-rex one with a picture of a turantula in the middle of the record spinning round and round when it played.(:-)
1066gaz It was a Fly not a Tarantula. The early releases were on Fly Records.
Only about 5 years old at the time in the mid 70's so a long time to remember details haha.
i feel so bad for harry
Name and shame the trustees. Name and shame the person who convinced him to form the trust.
Behind all of the glamour, in reality it was a mess of broken relationships, hurt and financial troubles !
Bill Legend was phenomenal
Bolan's lawyer knows the truths being sought out, a shame of life is how people and money can cause so much hate and sadness, when in fact the realization of one's work, IE money earned. Be aware and prepared is the lesson for all.
Maybe if he wasn't so cheap and treated others better financially maybe some would or maybe even could have stood up for his estate and try to do the right things.
Sad but True.
the ego can fuck all of us, were only human,
Sad to hear about the way he changed. I liked him as a teenager. He paid the ultimate price. Not very fair to his band.
British people need to revolt against their evil bullshIt tax system. I can see why most British rock stars do not live there...so crazy that Marc Bolan's music still sells but his family ( his son) and band members, loyal roadie have not received any money...
Bolan as big as the Beatles, ya right.
At a time when artists sold millions of records.. He should have been a multi millionaire.
If you're going with a star get your money and save it! Stash all pics and everything you two got together.
Paying taxes is a civic duty. Simply CARMA.
Forgive my ignorance, but if you want to know where Marc Bolan's money is and, assuming royalties are still coming in - Where the heck are they sending these royalties? Who owns the catalogue?
cantbelievewhatwewat Loads not being told here..pleading confidentiality. If the trust owns the catologue royalities hence the 25-30 million which I'm assuming is a low estimate in 2018. The lawyers accountants trust managers are makjng heaps of ££.

Oh yeah I just realised Marc bolans music is still being used in advertising to this day .. who's getting the royalties
@cantbelievewhatwewat - This documentary should have forensic financial specialists "follow the money" from the single album sale all the way up the food chain to what bank the proceeds eventually get deposited into.
Mark must have had millions
It’ll be very interesting to see what happens when T Rex gets inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, who’s gonna show up and what they’ll say
It is absolutely horrific what can happen and what does happen to so many artists, and to their families. You only have to watch this Marc Bolan documentary to understand the financial brutality inflicted on his family, exactly what has been done to Brian Jones and his family. Sickening !
I rememebr somebody said alfie o leary his then driver/minder said marc had investments in `Art`!!?? which ive seen on video as mistake investments. i rememeber raiding the fan club bins and finding legal stuff with wizard artist logo paper on...wasnt quite sure what it was, seemed like court case. was only 14yrs+ then so pity i binned all that paperwork.....found tons of fan club letters, loved reading those...we wrote to some of the girls from afar too!
A GOOD BLOKE.
USED AND ABUSED BY MANY.
realiberia Obviously not as Marc was not frugal nor very responsible with keeping his earnings and will in good order. But took the time to blow tons of money up his nose booze whilst paying his band £50 a week till the end. Not to mention somehow depriving his wife of 40% of their recording business. What I find most apalling is never helped out his parents.
Actually, when you watch this you realize what a piece of shit Bolan was. He got screwed after treating everyone around him like shit.
How can you say "good bloke" when he clearly shit on everyone he came across?!
*@realiberia* __Come ON...don't start stereotyping . Money is for most people the driving force.....after all , it buys you independence...It's just that with these showbusiness shenanigans, it comes to the forefront..
What *is* ironic , is that Bolan took his name from another well known Jewish entertainer Bobby Dylan, who also adopted a particular vocal style....but definitely had more business acumen.....
@@tarnsand - The first thing rockstars do when they first get rich and famous is buy their mum and dad a house in the countryside. Marc left his mum and dad to live in a shitty counsel flat.
It's ironic that Marc's music so regarded spirituality and a sense of regard for others, yet his earnings from this ideal end up representing and financing the opposite. Sad.
His car was a Tire - iron- a- saurus wrecks or wreck so he was essentially, doomed, but I loved his music and still do, not all those b' strds around him! Cheers! RCF!
the british government had m.b.'s millions.so much more than m.b.'s.
Who got his guitars?
They were stolen from his house when he died if I recall correctly.
The Gibson Flying V Bolan played was auctioned off several years ago and sold for around 30 grand .
Miss you, Marc. KALMIYH
Can we have this back on?
If he knew, I'm sure he would have made provision for his son. I don't think he really wanted the decree absolute from June.
@Red Star72 - Unfortunately, a man who is 29 and famous probably felt fairly invincible. I'm sure he planned to write a new will, or at least amend the existing one, "one day soon". His lawyer should have pushed much harder to get him to keep the instrument up to date.
@@MossyMozart I just don't think Marc was an organized or practical person.. Likely a lot of money went on his hedonistic lifestyle in tax exile, that would have a cost money. The rest seems to have stolen by financial advisors, and put in trusts away from the taxman. He wasn't very good without June really.
So many greedy people taking advantage of others. I hope they find their rightful place in hell.
Somebody was trying to kill Gloria for that car was tampered with. They thought She would be driving and that Marc would take a ride home with his chauffeur! It just happened that that particular night he gave his chauffeur the night off!
no the Rolls was loaned out to another Group that night by his management , the driver was working
Simple fact driving drunk is a disaster waiting to happen to anyone , anywhere or anytime..!!!
Hindsight was to take a taxi 🚕 if you were impaired ..... money 💰 was not an issue ..?
Scarboro Sasquatch Station Cleared of being drunk at the Inquest with many witnesses to attest to the fact she wasn’t drunk, including Staff at Morton’s.
But as you know better than most people who were actually there that terrible late night/early morning, we will take your word over theirs.......
You’ve played a blinder with that statement......
Kitten Lyric Another deluded one.......😂😂😂😂
@Daniel Asamota sounds like he has latched onto a conspiracy theory.
the show did not answer the question. They needed to look at when the account moved from the Bahamas to the CAyman island--there would be a paper trail
Dying choking on a cocktail cherry aye. Rock n roll
This smells EXACTLY like what *Tony DeFries* did to David Bowie.
Wish Roland and Gloria get access to some of those millions, based on Roland's birthright.
Kitten Lyric Oh stfu! Stop talking shit w/o any proof.
Legend.
I'm trying to figure out how Marc was able to absolve June's 40% in their record company against her wishes. Did I miss something? They were still legally married he essentially abandoned her and was still earning millions.
*@Tarn Sand* __Indeed.......How can *that* be ? It's totally unbelievable ....either June was (at that time) a lost (junky) cause herself and was bullied out of it , and robbed.....How can one lose a stake in one's own company just like that ? ......A prime example how fucked up that whole scene around our bopping imp was....Which is no surprise ,knowing his character and the ridiculous mid 70's pictures where he acts the (overweight) diva...he must've been easy to con out of his wealth......how brilliant an artist he was , he had some serious character issues....that whole "Born To Boogie" circus concocted by Beatle Ringo , was the writing on the wall......we see there a guy who totally believes all the hype and thinks he owns the world ,while "T-Rextacy" never went beyond UK borders.....apart from the one major world hit "Get It On" he was a struggling one hit wonder everywhere else....As soon as Marc set foot on airports outside the U.K. there were no Beatle or Rolling Stones scenes ; there's that film clip where a paparazzi spotted him on some deserted German airport ,Marc couldn't contain his glee ,and did the whole diva "star" trip...
I mean......how far gone he must've been ?
PaulLonden obviously ignorant on how big he was in Europe, Japan & Australia......the same hysteria as in the U.K. in those places too.
America didn’t happen agreed, but to say he was a a One Hit Wonder everywhere else is totally out of order and very wrong factually.
A huge Star from 71-73 in the UK, Europe, Japan & Australia fact!!
The Airport scenario you claim to know about is absolute bull too, for those years I’ve mentioned above, there was a huge following wherever T.Rex played, but not in America.
@@ilovesmysangsomsangsom3500 remember them being huge in America for about 3 years. I saw them twice in NYC and they were great! Don't know where you're getting your information from. I do remember, around the time he started performing with the back-up singers, was kind of the beginning of America's love affair with Trex. When Tanx came out, it did not sell well, at all. I had been a fan since the old days of Tyrannosaurus Rex, loved the sound. Loved the 'new' sound, too! I really wanted to move to GB so bad back then. But, I was still a minor. 😍
