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.
