Did you see Slade pre Glam... when they were a Skinhead band ?
And thank the Lord he did. Then he gave us a couple of the greatest lps ever made.Quote

That was a short move. All he needed was some plateau shoes and a bit of airing on Top of The Pops. -By this, betraying a whole movement and giving birth to Glam.

And the song, "The Slider." One of the raunchiest, sleaziest riffs (and guitar tones) ever. Puts the roll in rock n roll. Pure perfection!

I followed Tyrannosaurus Rex around the country because I loved them, the spareness and intensity of the two-piece (must be why I ended up loving the White Stripes!). I even saw them when their support act was David Bowie as a mime, along with a sitarist. John Peel was often on hand.
Then Hot Love hit big, they took off and I still followed T. Rex around and the shows were great but it wasn't as intimate or, oddly, as intense, just louder. Sacrilege, but my heart still belonged to Tyrannosaurus Rex. But it's all still a part of my youth I remember very fondly.

When I first bought it, and knew little of T Rex, I thought Electric Warrior was a greatest hits album. I guess sort of like buying Sticky Fingers as your first Stones album, and not understanding the catalogue.

Buick Mackane gets my vote for best riff on that album. He had a knack for the raunchy riff.

I bought Sticky Fingers as my first album aged 12 in spring of 1971 and Electric Warrior as my second in autumn of the same year. Guess I did pretty well!
