marc bolan 1972 studio

I posted one of the four videos below before (Cadilac). I can’t find any details on this session, but sometime in 1972, T-Rex brought the cameras into the studio. These four videos are all I can find right now. I love studio work like this – no heavy mixing or masking, no overdubs or piecing together different takes. Just music.

The point of this post is the performance, but if you want lyrics, here’s a master site for Marc’s stuff.

Wise words: Abraham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has if you count the tail as a leg. When they answered "five," Lincoln told them that the answer was four. The fact that you called the tail a leg did not make it a leg.

Aisling: (Irish: aislinn; pronounced ASH-ling): A vision poem.

In an aisling, the island of Ireland appears to the poet in a vision in the form of a woman, sometimes young and beautiful, sometimes old and haggard. This female figure is generally referred to in the poems as An Spéirbhean (the sky-woman).
