Title: An abomination, must be heard to be believed
Review: Marc Bolan was a startlingly unique talent, marrying Tolkeinesque whimsy with stripped down rockabilly hooks. He deserves a career spanning two-disc, charting both hits and worthy album tracks. Unfortunately, what we have here are T. Rex classics featuring horrendous overdubs, obviously added during the last few years. The effect is similar to the Hank Williams recordings MGM issued in the sixties, featuring syrupy strings and percussion. This compilation should be avoided at all costs.
