T. Rex - Electric Warrior

The Electric Warrior album effectively buried the psychedelic folk rock of Tyrannosaurus Rex and immortalised the trashy hard rock of T Rex.

One successful single ("Ride A White Swan") and an eponymous album had already introduced the T Rex name in 1970, and the single "Hot Love" first boasted the expanded band line-up of Bolan, Mickey Finn, Steve Currie and Bill Legend.

But Electric Warrior crystallised the sleazy bubblegum and rock-and-roll spirit of Bolan's band, capturing what was simultaneously a ferocious attack on and celebration of the three-minute pop single.
