These very early recordings were supplied by Simon Napier-Bell, Marc Bolan's first manager and are a fascinating historical archive. The bulk of this release consists of a dozen demos that Bolan did in 1966, augmented by plenty of additional full rock instrumentation and backup vocals added in 1981, several years after Bolan's death. It is very rare indeed that this approach yields satisfactory results, a release never intended for the contemporary market could become such a classic record.
