I'm beginning to think T. Rex were one of the greatest bands to come out of the 70s. They still seem so fresh and modern, while all the other great bands from the era, while still great, sound specific to that era. Great band.
I could not agree more, with you, dear Timothy. There was only ever one Marc Bolan. Marc, had it all. The marvellous looks, the great personality, the get up and go. The lot. He worked, so very, very hard, to reach the top, and he and his band mates, did just that. But, people are so very fickle. Not all of us, thankfully. ❤️ ❤️ My Precious Mum & Dad, were T-rex fans, back in the day, which was fab, because I was fortunate enough, to grow up, from a very early age, listening, to and very much enjoying, T-rex. I also, fell in love with Marc, I have to admit, from a very tender age. A very long time ago. I am an old lady of 58 years now, but, i still Absolutely adore Marc and T-rex. ❤️🌸❤️🌸❤️ Kim. 🙂 T-rex
Marc Bolan was an extremely sensitive soul (too sensitive for this world), a musical genius (I am using this often abused word accurately) .. he made the guitar sing .. he had a mystical dimension within .. he had extremely good energy spiritually .. he was one of a kind .. his works have a wonderful vibrancy, aliveness, vividness .. he left humanity a great and timeless gift. He was one of the greats.
Look no further than the opening line of 'Solid Gold Easy Action,' a single-only release that eventually showed up on the same year's 'Great Hits' compilation. "Life is the same and it always will be / Easy as picking foxes from a tree," Bolan sings as typically glammy guitars spill out a riff. Turns out that the license plate on the car that Bolan was killed in on Sept. 16, 1977, was "FOX 661L." And oh yeah, it was wrapped around a tree.
I love T.Rex. Electric Warrior is probably in my top 3 of greatest albums of all-time. I love "Jeepster" too. However, a few days ago, I watched a documentary on T.Rex. I was surprised to learn that the main riff in "Jeepster", as well as some of the lyrics, were taken from Howlin' Wolf's "You'll Be Mine". I still love "Jeepster" though.
@@thehighllama8101 News to me. But it wouldn't be the first time that's happened. It's not like the Beatles and Stones didn't also took some inspiration directly from earlier African-American artists. It's still a bangin' tune though.
I'm 58 and love watching Marc play Jeepster. His work is by far better then what's out there in today's music. Marc was super sexy and so talented. He lives on through his work. 💖🌹
Still my favorite song of theirs. Steve Currie's bass tone and playing is perfect. Simple, but the entire arrangement hangs on it for the quirky vibe of the song. Just a great tune!
+nirvanafan7895 My hunch is that he would have drifted away from mainstream pop and become more of an artist and producer. By 1977 the "hits" years were already behind him.
OMG just watched full screen, I'm 13 again. Marc, what a performer. There never has been, and never will be, anyone to replace you. The totally irreplaceable Mr Feld. RIP love you forever. Gx
I was a teenager when this song hit the charts and had a part time job as a movie projectionist in my hometown movie theater. In between matinees I would play this over the PA system and the audience would fold up their seats and dance to it!
@@andrewmorton2430 Could have been recording The Marc Shows up at Granada Stidios in Manchester, his last tour dates were I think in Sweden in May '77
Mr. Bolan's best song in my opinion, everything is there in this song,the lyrics, the melody, the chorus, Marc's blatant sensuality....it...it...its just fuckin' rocks!!!!!!!
Ich auch ! Meine Kinder zwischen 40 und 30 hören ebenfalls die Musik aus den 60iger und 70iger Jahre .man hat ja so seine Favoriten wie T.Rex,CCR,Led Zeppelin,Deep Purple u.s.w...meine 16 jährige Enkeltochter ist leider nicht zu begeistern..
An iconic song for the early 70s, another gifted artist who died too young. My favourite line in this is " Just like a Car your easy to behold, I`ll call you Jaguar if I may be so bold" What a chat up line! :)
great album....when you consider it was made and released 2 years before pink floyds dark side of the moon...........i dont care what anybody thinks...Marc Bolan was more progressive than Roger Waters.....Bolan never ever got the credit he deserved...IMO......life long fan from 11 years old..( 62 now )
Warrior to me was the best album ever to hear when growing up at 14 . He was something else when he went electric . Did some really good acoustic stuff before that if you remember
classic rock track. from the legends that is t rex, love marc bolan the electric warrior, such a mind blowing track, awesome vocals from marc, magic guitar playing, he was that good. we all miss you marc.
Way too beautiful and gifted - no matter which century he came from. No words to describe just how invincible Marc Bolan truly was and always will be in this universe and all of the ones beyond
I was nearly 13 when this song was released.such great memories,t.rex were the seventies for me.marc bolan ,singer,song writer ,iconic front man of arguably the best pop band of the 70,s.what a huge talent so missed.
That is exactly correct, that is the type of playing the Les Paul was made for, Bob Calvert of Hawkwind and Lindsay Buckingham are two other perfect examples of guitar players whose music was meant to be played with a Les Paul ! And many others also ❤
TH-cam has helped me more than anything else dealing with this pandemic.I enjoy this music so very much,and am hopeful that it will continue to be brightening my days into the future.
In the US, the only T Rex song most people were familiar with was the single "Bang a Gong" which was released here. I was fortunate enough to have a friend who introduced me to the "Electric Warrior" album, and I will always be grateful for that, because I loved it immediately. I bought it shortly after and played it constantly. I never understood why they didn't release another single from that album here, in my opinion "Bang a Gong" wasn't even the best song on the album. What a great band!
yeah i moved to states and found his album which i played to my neighbours one of whom still remembers 45 years on(or so) OOPS showing my age he was part of the glitter age Slade,Sweet etc. but with way more talent and class
Metal Guru was a hit, too (at least in the Seattle area). And, Get It On was THE party song during the early to mid-seventies - it was a MONSTER hit. Even though T.Rex didn't achieve the same degree of fame here in the US as in Europe, I think it's important to remember that those records sold based solely on the quality of the music because most of us had no idea what the group was about visually, and that was a huge factor in their success in England. How could one look like Marc Bolan and not have it affect sales? I saw him for the first time on TH-cam about five years ago and was amazed. If he had received the proper representation here things would have been much different.
Having been a teen 'back then' I must respectfully disagree with you. Bolan's visual exposure in the US during his peak was virtually nonexistent. The album covers were about all that was available. By the time he was on DK's Rock Concert he was - sadly - on the fast-track downhill. As we now can see courtesy of TH-cam, he was magical during his prime.
This song was released in the month of my 11th birthday and there is no one like Marc Bolan. And when I was heading off to catholic private girls school the months to follow his songs kept me going.. He was my first crush and these songs still sound as new as they did when they first came out :)
Hi Dylan. I love this track; I think I would go so far as to say it is my favourite T Rex track. 5 stars and sraight to my favourites. I just cannot believe how beautiful he was. I know it's not PC but I absolutely hate Ms Jones for taking Marc from us. RIP babe love and miss you loads. Still snogging you though it's only on the screen. Gx
I loved him : ) I was growing up in the 70s..best era ,i hope Heaven is like it ! Lord Toffenam ice lollys, space dust, instand whip, star turn mousses , cesta, tiswas, the beano, whizzer and chips.....
Just missed being consciously aware of the 1960s as it happened, when I woke into sentient child consciousness around 1971 T Rex were the first initiation into music and what being a 'star' is and to this day Marc Bolan is still the template of what a 'star' is for me.
Warming myself up with my fave trex tune In a couple hours will be seeing trextacy My dad brought me up on this and he saw him as a boy live once before he died
+Mic Beefstick So did I, during T.Rex's German Tour in February 1973, when I was 13 years old.My first Live concert. Considering that Marc Bolan was my one and only idol back then, it's hard to explain my emotional state when I first heard about them showing up in my hometown.

T-rex
Yes Kim I was there at the beginning and remember him going “electric”. I was also mesmerised with the tunes he produced. Real good days😊
@@kimstaines759Hi KS ! Old lady of 58 😄I’m a young bloke of 59 & doing fine !! T Rex are great

John White could not put it any better wish his music was played more
+John White ..absoluteyl true and honest words! Greetings from Germany to all!!!
HE TRAGEDY LOST LIFE TO SOON
+John White so agree, the unforgetable Marc just so sad he whent so young.
+John White AND THEY ALL TRY TO COPY HIM STILL TODAY..
I am so happy that T Rex made it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year
Wow !! Fantastic and well deserved !
Very long overdue what took them so long
So sad..Marc lives forwver
Then we've gotta question, what's their criteria? Guys like T Rex just can't be missed out.
fuck the hall of ame they eat shit. this band is good. best.
So many of his songs like this one have strange dark references to cars. He had a mystical insight into his own tragic passing.
Awwww man you’re right
OMG!!!

YESSSS Just discovered Marc Bolan ..... can’t escape now!
Marc Bolan was my god when I was 12! Just re- discovered. Gone but still beloved!🙏❤😇🐍
Just discovered Marc Bolan & T.Rex after watching the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame a couple months ago. Now I can’t escape!
I was 12 too when I fell, I had a friend whose older brother looked like him so he was obsessed and played his music endlessly. Great times!
Still my favorite song of theirs. Steve Currie's bass tone and playing is perfect. Simple, but the entire arrangement hangs on it for the quirky vibe of the song. Just a great tune!
I was 11 when he sang this and still to this day i dance around my kitchen to the amusement of my grown up children. He is missed.
Michele D. Davess why not he was awesome ,keep on dancing xx
Michele D. IVES-DAVESS you still dancing hope so x
...and it's probably the first and only time they heard real music - that is, a tune with a RHYTHM! Who passed a law banning that, anyway?
Michele D. IVES-DAVESS
I met a different Michelle back in 1972 Michigan and we love this song totally!!!
Great story Michelle ❤️
Marc Bolan was a great guitar player and magnificent whirlwind of 70s.
❤️🤍❤️🤍
So much love for this band!!! Shame Marc died so young. Who knows what else he could have come up with.
+nirvanafan7895 My hunch is that he would have drifted away from mainstream pop and become more of an artist and producer. By 1977 the "hits" years were already behind him.
+EricIrl he was ahead of his time before this
+Robert Robbie check his solo stuff
only God knows
If 1973's "Midnight" is anything to go by, then I'd say "heavy metal". :P
53 years ago, still fresh. Great rock never dies!
THIS...and the reason I'm here now!
OMG just watched full screen, I'm 13 again. Marc, what a performer. There never has been, and never will be, anyone to replace you. The totally irreplaceable Mr Feld. RIP love you forever. Gx
I was a teenager when this song hit the charts and had a part time job as a movie projectionist in my hometown movie theater. In between matinees I would play this over the PA system and the audience would fold up their seats and dance to it!
I was 8 ,loved this song lol
A Rock God so sorely missed. Just a genius with the riffs and off the wall lyrics to die for. Love You forever Marc.
Ich bin damals voll auf T.Rex abgefahren und liebe auch heute noch ihre Songs, diesen hier besonders.
This song still kicks ass after all these years!!
It sure does!
Always liked this song
I met Marc two days before his tragic death and he was the perfect gentleman. He was chatting to all his fans outside club before he came on stage.
Where was this? There is no record of Marc Bolan being on stage two days before his death.
@@andrewmorton2430 Could have been recording The Marc Shows up at Granada Stidios in Manchester, his last tour dates were I think in Sweden in May '77
2024, 68 years old, still into T.Rex. The whole band, not Bolan's backing band. He got the energy behind him from Currie and Legend.
July 1, 2018. Marc Bolan is gorgeous and love this band! Born in 85. Wrong decade. Jeepster for your love! 💗
Mr. Bolan's best song in my opinion, everything is there in this song,the lyrics, the melody, the chorus, Marc's blatant sensuality....it...it...its just fuckin' rocks!!!!!!!
40 years since we lost him, but thankfully he left a legacy that everyone can enjoy here on TH-cam. Gone but never forgotten.
Wow. the first single i ever bought for 50 p. 50 years later it is still fresh, sexy, invigorating and what a groove. Bolan was a genius.
One of the best songs of the early 70/s!
I share my birthday with Marc Bolan 30th September. His music is as good today as it was in the 70s.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY YESTERDAY🎈
Me too! :) Soul twins!
Wenn ich diesen Song höre, werde ich wieder 14 Jahre alt. Habe früher laut aufgedreht, dass die Wände wackelten. Noch immer ein T.Rex Anhänger.

One of the best singles but my fav was Metal guru me and my twin brother still have long hair and we just turned 71 we have fun where ever we go
It's great to read all the nice things people are saying about Marc xx
His wife was so
fortunate . . .
I would have cradled him into
eternity
Legend. Epic. The glam rock image masked his genius. Seriously awesome lead guitarist.

An iconic song for the early 70s, another gifted artist who died too young. My favourite line in this is " Just like a Car your easy to behold, I`ll call you Jaguar if I may be so bold" What a chat up line! :)
Bloody genius.....
Definitely one of Mark's best 'commercial' songs. Love and miss you sweetpea. Gx
We had had sooo much fun in those 70ies ! T.REX were on the top charts and all over my Bedroom walls !
Tomorrow would have been his 69th birthday. Keep a little Marc in your heart.
...and keep a lot of Bowie in there too!
@@dexterdog717 After I found Bolan, I felt Bowie to be an impersonator.
Never ages this tune, first heard it in 71 at 17, still sounds gutsy in 2018.
Electric Warrior is such an all-time classic album.
The brilliance of comparing girls to cars lol
Slider was ok
My favourite T.rex album.

My first hero in music when I was at school I'm nearly 60 and still enjoy t rex tunes
Just discovered Marc Bolan....can’t escape!
Why are all my favourite rock stars no longer with us??? I love you Marc, John, George, Jimi, Janis, Otis and Bob xxx

Was such a talent and absolutely beautiful 😍
Люблю,слушаю, незабываемые хиты просто СУПЕР!!!!
Ya era hora, es un grupo de lo mejor de todos los tiempos, se puede decir que su estilo es único y sugerente. Marc Bolan forever
This imo happens to be one of the greatest recorded tracks of the 70s
Still sounds great after all these years , 46years after his death , rest in peace glam rocker .

That is exactly

Paul was made for, Bob Calvert
of Hawkwind and
Lindsay
Buckingham are
two other perfect
examples of guitar players whose music was meant to be played with a Les
Paul ! And many
others also ❤
Haven't listened to this song in 25 years. Someone mentioned it the other day in passing. Glad he did
TH-cam has helped me more than anything else dealing with this pandemic.I enjoy this music so very much,and am hopeful that it will continue to be brightening my days into the future.
Blessed to have seen them play live May 8th 1971 at the Bournemouth Winter Gardens, Hot Love had just reached no 1 in the charts.
This is my favourite song at the moment. I play it severel times a day while I`m dancing around in the living room. I`m glad no one can see me.
There's a bit of Marc in everyone ... Love this song.
He was such an enormous influence on my young years.... 16 September 1977 still hurts!
In my opinion this is one of Marcs greatest songs. Great lyrics and lots of subtle guitar playing..
Today singers and bands have nothing...on this in the 60s and 70s...Just Fantastic 😊🌈

No questioning this guys musical ability, Its there for all to see. he was ahead of his time.
So happy to have found fellow fans! I agree with all of the comments, I have loved TRex since the very early 80's. The music never gets old.
50 лет назад впервые услышал этот трэк и как актуален сегодня . Что называется музыка на века . Браво !
Один урюк писал,что в СССР Т-REX никто не слушал,боялись.Щiрый,наверное.

I'll bet the nuns wouldn't let you listen to T.Rex. Besides, why did you get sent to girls catholic school? Were you a bad girl?
~ a total sensation...one of my all time favs...when it plays, it's automatic to bust a move :)
T Rex had so many great songs I had forgotten about Jeepster One of their best! Shared.
único y adoráble !! 😍
Dear god, give us back Marc Bolan! We’ll give you Nickle back AND Justin Bieber.
hell yeah
Nickelback
Would not be close to an even trade.A thousand of both would not equal the talent of Marc.
I agree. Marc was an original
Danny I would give even my snickers to!!! LOL . My friend, all those pop and rap or hip hop divas or all of today’s bands to!!!!!
It seems like time had stand still, it doesn't feels old....
Love and best wishes.

Marc said he was re-inventing music from the 50"s & 60"s he certainly did . rock on
Still rocks in 2020 what a groove God bless the jeepster

I've been playing this song since 71 never get tired of hearing it a real super star sadly missed
Just missed being consciously aware of the 1960s as it happened, when I woke into sentient child consciousness around 1971 T Rex were the first initiation into music and what being a 'star' is and to this day Marc Bolan is still the template of what a 'star' is for me.
I just loved this little nymph! His music, clothes, his style! So great David Bowie wrote a song about him. Lady Stardust!
all Bowie did is copy him
Paved the way for all those other bands later
Fantastic. Marc bolan. Mejor imposible. abrazo. Al cielo. Fuisteis. Los mejores del glam
