A decent overview of his brief career. He may have been a one-trick pony, but three-chord glam doesn’t get any better than Electric Warrior, The Slider, and part of Tanx. Bowie ascended as Bolan peaked, and I can’t help but wonder if he shape-shifted with one icy-blue eye on Bolan’s commercial fate. And if you think Tony Visconti just played a minor role in Bolan’s music, well you can just think again!
Very cool. Thanks!
Is Visconti affecting a British accent?
“plat-fohm”
‘Mahk”
Isn’t he American?
Yes, from Brooklyn. Before it was cool.
