T. Rex “Tanx”
If you love Electric Warrior and Slider then you™ll like like Tanx a lot!! For me, Marc Bolan has one of the greatest rock voices of the time. I don™t know what he was putting in his tea between 1971-1973, peppermint jasmine awesome, perhaps?
Tanx picks up right where Slider left off and even broadens the band’s sound adding horns and back up singers throughout the record. This album also serves as a perfect self confidence booster when you get ready to go out on a Friday Night, but don’t get too sexy!
In a way Tanx is a farewell album, mostly because the band would soon start to dismember, and Bolan would go on to make on a few more records that no one would listen to. Please do not let the ridiculousness of the album cover fool you, it’s a great listen; Bolan looks like a member of Gwar on the cover, no?
