notes

Note from the label's website regarding this release:

• When Marc Bolan delivered the seminal album Electric Warrior to his record company he knew he was now free to set up his own Record label and run things his way. Over the next six months free of contracts Marc recorded the basis of what would become his next ( and biggest selling) album ‘The Slider’ for his own label ‘The T.Rex Hot Wax Co.’ Alongside these tracks this box set features tracks that never ever made it onto record and have been included here for the very first time. This material has been gathered together over many years from collectors, fans and auction rooms and is controlled by the family and produced in association with The Official Marc Bolan Merch.Co.
• 6 Disc set containing totally unheard material from Marc’s home recorded tapes including huge hits like Jeepster, Telegram Sam & Get it on being worked on from the bare bones.
• Newly found live tapes from the summer tour of 1971
• DVD contains unseen footage
• Full Colour booklet with in depth notes and unpublished photographs from this explosive period in Bolan’s career

Tracks 1-5: Clifton Park, Rotherham, 28th Aug

Erratum:
'Cadilac' is incorrectly spelt as "Cadillac" throughout (Marc always spelt his song with one 'l').

"Dedicated to Marc, Mickey and Steve." Reissue of T. Rex - The Electric Boogie: Nineteen Seventy One by the parent label.
