Still retaining its predecessors' demented soul revue edge most successfully via the yearning "Soul of My Suit" but packed solid with powerful pop the previous summer's hit "I Love to Boogie" included , Bolan's personal predictions for the punk scene literally exploded out of the grooves. The title track and the churning "Visions of Domino" all bristle with revitalized energy, while "Jason B.

By the time the album wraps up with the rock'n'armageddon-flavored "Teen Riot Structure," Bolan was not simply wearing the mantel of punk godfatherhood, he was happily sticking safety pins through it and preparing his next move, the driving "Celebrate Summer" single -- absent from the original album, but included now as one of five bonus tracks appended to the Edsel remaster. Riding in on buzzsaw guitar and thundering bass, it packed a killer chorus and an uplfting message "Hey little punk, forget that junk and celebrate summer with me" and it really was the greatest record he'd made in years. It was also his last -- a month after its release, Marc Bolan was dead. Sorrow immediately imbibed Dandy in the Underworld with a dignity that, had Bolan lived, it probably wouldn't have otherwise deserved -- it is not, overall, one of his strongest albums, and the demos and outtakes included on the later volumes of the Unchained series suggest that his proposed next album would have left it far behind. But conjecture, like hindsight, can be a dangerous gauge. At the time, Dandy not only seemed bloated with promise, it was pregnant with foreboding as well. Listen again to the lyrics of the title track -- self-mythologizing autobiography and not a happy ending in sight. Just like real life. Product Details Tracks Album Credits. Show More.

John Wheatcroft: Never listened to this before and an album, heard odd tracks as you do. I must admit a great 70s soft rock album. I am sure anything after this would have been interesting, but alas it wasn't to be. Another reason why this is a great page: it makes you listen to stuff you were aware of but just passed up. I wouldn't be averse to picking up a copy now. Mike Knoop: T. Rex is a band I only know of in the past tense. They put out some great singles, but, before this week, is probably the only album I've listened to all the way through. In general, I like Dandy in the Underworld , but it must have sounded positively square coming out in the middle of the punk boom. I Love to Boogie is more "anachronism in the UK" than anarchy. What probably surprised me the most about T. When Bolan curses in Hang-Ups , it seems forced and silly, instead of having any real edge. Sad , - even if the latter seems to crib its main riff from T. Bolan's delivery is so much like latter-day psychedelic folkie Devendra Banhart that I find myself re-evaluating both artists' careers. Mauricio Telles: This is the first time I've heard a complete T. Rex album. And I liked! So thanks for this awesome group and the fellow that recommended it. I've spend my life so far listening to other types of music and certainly I neglected Glitter, apart from loving early Bowie, Kiss and having very occasional fun with The Sweet. And because of that, and the big amount of crap that is being released nowadays, I will pay my dues to glitter music. Not sure if I will love it, but I don't think that will be boring, like this album. John Davidson: I grew up in the s and 70s with Top of the Pops providing the soundtrack. Of those only Bowie really transcended the notion that they were ephemeral "singles-only" artists that you might listen to on a best of or compilation album, though Slade gave it a good old go. Every song sounds like it could have been a single. Every song bar Pain And Love is characterised by a simple, sometimes effective, melody and a mid paced danceable shuffle. When not reduced to repetitive chorus lines the post hippy space child lyrics were an anachronism and although I Like to Boogie did bring Bolan back to Top Of The Pops in it felt like he'd run his course. Formative years notwithstanding, it's fair to say that four years was a long time in music in the s and the gulf between and was too deep for artists like T. Rex to bridge. Marco LG: T. Yet, every time I listen to them I enjoy it, a lot. The songs are fun, easy to sing along and dance with. They never overstay their welcome and often sound somewhat dangerous and over the edge. That is of course almost entirely down to the talent of Marc Bolan, who might not have been the best singer ever, but was a great showman. I will also mention I Love To Boogie and Groove A Little are less engaging than the rest, but overall this is a collection of twelve great tunes. As the closing chapter of T. Rex adventure Dandy In The Underworld gives plenty of material to speculate on what could have been. The era of MTV was around the corner and we can be sure Marc was going to embrace it. And for the legend. Michael Porter: I picked up on T. The first full price album I bought was Electric Warrior and I felt he could do no wrong for about years but, by he had gone off the boil. I ripped the paper putting disc 1 back in on after the first play. If you but this please be aware. The other thing is. I had the box set on my bed. It slipped and fell and ripped the book out. Is that all it takes to ruin a very expensive set? Come on! I still love this set even with all of my complaining. But I want people to be warned about the faults I've found. If you got this and you don't feel the same way, I am happy for you, and please ignore this review. Keep a little Marc in your Heart! GoodTunes August 7, Report. Otherwise, good pressing!

The hippest young gunslingers could go on all night about the influence of the Velvet Underground , the Stooges , and the Ramones , but Bolan knew -- and subsequent developments proved -- that every single one of them had been nurtured in his arms, growing up with the ineffable stream of brilliant singles he slammed out between , and rehearsing their own stardom to the soundtrack he supplied.

The other half was cool tunes but very produced and almost too tight and sterile. Now, in I received this set. The remaster of disc 1 is very lovely. Much more presence, clarity, and punch. The main CD is the best part of this set. Let's just say I don't need 5 versions of "Groove a Little". Some of the "Outtakes" are not very good, to me. Buried vocals that come in and out of the "rough mixes". I love T. Rex but I don't need every take Marc ever did. I would have much rather have the original mix or a NEW mix of tunes like "Sing me a song" or "Endless sleep" If the masters are available. The notes in the book do not seem to be very detailed either about the 2 bonus discs. It doesn't mention WHO is playing on the 2 bonus discs. I would LOVE to have more details. It's just not a very exciting 3 CD set. Now, the worst part of this set. The box set cover. I'm sure the people White Fox meant well. Looking at it, it is very gorgeous. But the hardware part of the box is faulty, to me at least. Here's what I mean First: the CD's are super, super hard to get out. I ripped the paper putting disc 1 back in on after the first play. If you but this please be aware. The other thing is. I had the box set on my bed. It slipped and fell and ripped the book out. Is that all it takes to ruin a very expensive set? Come on!
