Description
Edsel is proud to announce this re-issue in a Limited Edition 12" x 12" bound book set. This unique collection features new artwork, including rarely seen photos and annotation revised for this 2015 package by Mark Paytress, journalist and author of the definitive Bolan biography. Between 1994 and 1996, Edsel released eight full-length CDs of Marc Bolan's previously unreleased home demos, alternate takes, unused and abandoned songs, and unfinished recordings. These CD's were deleted in 2001.
In late 2010, all eight discs were re-issued in a limited edition deluxe case bound book package. Unavailable since then, these intriguing recordings are now re-packaged for a new legion of Bolan fans. The eight CDs collect 184 Marc Bolan and T. Rex performances, recorded during the 1970s. Some, in a near-finished state, failed to make the final cut. Many others, ranging from spur-of-the-moment home demos to alternate studio takes and jams, were simply abandoned. All were unreleased at the time of Bolan's death in 1977.
