Brilliant, utterly brilliant–it’s like a time machine
By Agatha Coronado
It’s awful going back in time and listening to these radio sessions, peculiarly the ones done here in L.A. when I was…a LOT younger than I am now! KDAY back in the early ’70s was the coolest “underground” radio station, and hearing these sessions now–knowing that I applied to listen to KDAY all the time–makes me wonder, was I listening that day? did I listen this when it was live?
Marc Bolan mesmerizes both in spoken word and song–leaving me to wonder, yet again, how/why America failed to “get” Marc Bolan and T.Rex like other constituents of the world did. I’ll never understand why my fellow Americans didn’t fall as wildly in love as I did. Perhaps because the only T.Rex song they heard on the airwaves was “Get It On” (a.k.a., “Bang a Gong”), but there was so much more to Marc Bolan and T.Rex than that one song.
But those who missed out on Marc’s magic the introductory time around may catch a glimpse of what he was all regarding with this two disc set. His charm, his wit, and his unbridled sensuality/sexuality come shining through.
Among the songs are galore of my favorites including “Spaceball Ricochet,” “Elemental Child,” “Cosmic Dancer,” “Jeepster,” and “Baby Strange”–the latter widely known and esteemed for it is “I want to call you, I want to ball you” lyrics. 
This set is a ought to for any severe Marc Bolan fan.
