Description
Demon Records presents the final two T. Rex singles (released in Marc Bolan's lifetime),"Dandy In The Underworld" and "Celebrate Summer", on two 10" singles in a gatefold sleeve.
We have replaced the original B-sides of "Dandy In The Underworld" – "Groove a Little" and "Tame My Tiger" – with alternate mixes from 1976 and 2006, along with a 2006 mix of "Dandy In The Underworld".
As the B-side of "Celebrate Summer" was "Ride My Wheels" from the "Futuristic "Dragon" album, we have replaced it with two tracks recorded later in 1977, but unreleased at the time - "Hot George" and "20th Century Baby"
- along with a monitor mix of "Celebrate Summer". The records are pressed on red and blue vinyl.
Description
Following the success of Edsel's book sets of the 'Tanx' + 'Zinc Alloy' albums, and 'Bolan's Zip Gun' + 'Futuristic Dragon', as well as 'Born To Boogie', we now present the final T. Rex album, 1977's "Dandy In The Underworld".
Produced by Marc Bolan, the album features the hit singles "I Love To Boogie" (# 13), "Dandy In the Underworld" and "The Soul Of My Suit". "Celebrate Summer", the last single released in Bolan's lifetime, is included as a bonus track along with several other non-album A- and B-sides.
For this deluxe media book edition, we have added 36 bonus outtakes, demos and alternate mixes, 20 of which are previously unreleased.
These have been mastered from original first generation tapes in the possession of two dedicated fans � this is the first time these tapes have been used.
The book features a brand new 9,500+ word note by acknowledged Bolan authority, Mojo writer Mark Paytress, as well as an interview with friend Steve Harley, plus a fan's first-hand account of one of the concerts on the "Dandy" UK tour, Bolan's last tour. The book also features ephemera, press clippings and photos from the era, from fans' collections.
