Initially a British folk-rockcombo called Tyrannosaurus Rex, T. Rex was a primary force in glam rock, thanks to the creative direction of guitarist/vocalist Marc Bolan(born Mark Feld). Bolan created a deliberately trashy form of rock and rollthat was proud of its own disposability. T. Rex's music borrowed the underlying sexuality of early rock & roll, adding dirty, simple grooves and fat distorted guitars, as well as an overarching folky/hippie spirituality that always came through the clearest on ballads.

T. Rex

I could never understand
The wind at all
Was like a ball of love
I could never never see
The cosmic sea
Was like a bumble bee

And when I'm sad...
I slide.

I have never never kissed
A car before
It's like a door
I have always always
Grown my own before
All schools are strange

And when I'm sad...
I slide.

I have never never
Nailed a nose before
Thats how the garden grows
I could never understand
The wind at all
Was like a ball of love

And when I'm sad...
I Slide
Watch now
I'm gonna slide
