Dandy In The Underworld
released 1977
reviewed by guest reviewer Quo
Released 13th march 1977. This was Marc Bolan’s last album. This was the year Marc cleaned himself up. He got off the drugs and hosted a hit television show called “marc” of all names. The future looked fantastic for Marc but he died in a horrific car crash in September of the same year.
This was also the year marc was making a comeback into the music scene. Only having minor hits from the years 1974 to 76. The first single from the album “I love to boogie” was a true T.REX song and got them back in the spotlight for a short time by peaking at number 13. This album is a work of art it showed Marc was back and is kicking ass once again. He was on top form with songs like “crimson moon” , “hang ups” and “dandy in the underworld”.
It’s a shame that Marc isn’t alive to follow up on this album
I rate this album 9/10
