Marc Bolan

My favourite of all the Glam Rock stars - but not because of him. I loved the songs, found the mystisiscm of the lyrics fascinating, but didn't really like him.
Fine when i listening to him on Radio 1, but when he pops up on Top Of the Pops it just didn't work for me.
There he was preening and strutting away, good example here, but he always seemed to me back then to be trying really hard and it really not working.
And when he had his "Marc" TV show that all the girls in my class literally raced home to see, could see it even less.
Still, he's left a great legacy behind that i still enjoy - as long as i keep my eyes shut.
