Rex were an English rock band, formed in 1967 by singer-songwriter and guitarist Marc Bolan. The band formed as Tyrannosaurus Rex, releasing four underground acoustic albums under the name. Tony Visconti (their producer for several albums) claimed in a documentary on the band that he had taken to using the abbreviated term "T. Rex" as a shorthand, something that initially irritated Bolan, who gradually came around to the idea and officially shortened the band's name to "T. Rex" at roughly the same time they started having big hits (shortly after going electric). In the early to mid 1970s, the band reached huge success with fourteen top-20 UK glam rock hits: "Jeepster", "Get It On", "Ride a White Swan", "Solid Gold Easy Action", "Children of the Revolution", "Hot Love", "Telegram Sam", "20th Century Boy", "Debora", "Teenage Dream", "The Groover", "New York City", "I Love To Boogie" and "Metal Guru". During this period the band also released six UK top-30 albums, including Electric Warrior, which hit the top of the album charts. In 1977, Bolan was killed in a car accident, and the band broke up. Electric Warrior  Released 24 September 1971 Recorded March–June 1971 at Trident Studios and Advision Studios, London, England; Wally Heider Studios, Los Angeles; Media Sound Studios, New York City, United States Genre Glam rock Length 39:02 Label Fly (UK), Reprise (US) Producer Tony Visconti Electric Warrior is the sixth studio album by English glam rock act T. Rex (being the second album under the name "T. Rex", with the first four billed as "Tyrannosaurus Rex"). It was released on 24 September 1971 by record label Fly in the UK and Reprise in the US. The album marks a turning point in the band's sound, dispensing with the folk-oriented music of the group's previous albums and pioneering a new, "glammier" style of rock known as glam rock. The album also drew attention to the band in the United States with the top 10 hit "Get It On".  1 Mambo Sun 3:41 2 Cosmic Dancer 4:30 3 Jeepster 4:13 4 Monolith 3:49 5 Lean Woman Blues 3:03 6 Bang a Gong (Get It On) 4:28 7 Planet Queen 3:14 8 Girl 2:33 9 The Motivator 4:01 10 Life's a Gas 2:25 11 Rip Off 3:40 Personnel: Marc Bolan – vocals, guitar Mickey Finn – conga drums, bongos Steve Currie – bass guitar Bill Legend – drums Howard Kaylan – backing vocals Mark Volman – backing vocals Rick Wakeman – keyboards on "Get It On" Elton John – keyboards on "Get It On" Ian McDonald – saxophone Burt Collins – flugelhorn Technical personnel: Tony Visconti – production Roy Thomas Baker – engineering George Underwood – artwork, photography   ENJOY!
