Description
Following the success of the 1LP "Songwriter: 1970" and 2LP "Songwriter: 1971" sets, Demon Records is proud to announce a new release in the Marc Bolan "Songwriter" series . This is a vinyl only, intimate series that focuses on
the private and creative Marc Bolan , with the emphasis on how that affected his songwriting.
"Songwriter: takes in a period of change during which Bolan was very active in recording studios in the US and Europe. As the sleevenote says: " In developing, accelerating and refining a ' T. Rex sound' with Tony Visconti at
the controls, Bolan had achieved two things. He'd joined Elvis Presley and The Beatles as an unprecedented pop phenomenon turned youth culture legend. And he'd become synonymous with a musical sound. Now, in 1973, with a pack of dressed up disciples breathing down his neck and critics eager to knock his success, the budding anti star wanted out".
With a selection of finished recordings and working versions , this 16 track compilation charts Bolan's attempts to move away from and develop the sound he had invented.
This release has been compiled and fully annotated (in a 1800 word note) by Mark Paytress , author of the definitive biography "Marc Bolan: The Rise And Fall of a 20 th Century Superstar" and the recently published "Glam! When Superstars Rocked The World, 1970-74". -
