Marc Bolan: lançamento de box com seis discos

Um box de 6 discos com todas as performances de Marc Bolan na BBC – incluindo faixas bônus do T. Rex e John’s Children – será lançado no Reino Unido no dia 26 de agosto. "Marc Bolan at BBC" vai substituir o box triplo "Bolan at the Beeb", de 2006 (fora de catálogo), como a versão definitiva.

Essa novidade não apresenta somente as faixas lançadas oficialmente (incluindo dois discos inteiros de faixas especialmente remixadas para a BBC), mas também uma variedade de fontes alternativas, como discos de transcrição da BBC e rolos de gravações completos.

A variedade das fontes pode não propiciar uma experiência de audição consistente, mas o set deve - esperamos - apresentar essas gravações da melhor maneira possível. Produzido e compilado por Clive Zone, o box vai conter também um novo ensaio por Mark Paytress, autor da biografia "Bolan: The rise and fall of a 20th century superstar" e todas as faixas remasterizadas por Keiron Mcgarry, da Universal Studios de Londres.

Confira abaixo todas as faixas do Box:
