Almost 40 years since Bolan’s death, his music is still vibrant For the past two decades, T

Tokyo.


he was a great admirer of Marc Bolan’s work. I couldn’t be­ lieve it;..-.- “Anyway, we talked about T Rex and Bowie said:‘You


; know that Marc Bolan began the whole movement, through glam rock to influencing


. punk.He was that important to pop music - he crossed the generations’. “Then I asked Bowie: ‘Do


you miss, Marc?’ He replied: ‘Every single day of my life’. “I knewin his voice that he


meantit. With that,hejumped on the Bullet Train and I never saw him again.” _


“I went closer and it w a s . ■ hits Jeepster, Metal Guru and him, and, rather nervously,T

Rextasyhavetouredtheworld performing T Rex’s rock and pop anthems -a 21-year career that has lasted longer than Bo­ lan’s very own T Rex. “I recorded a track with


Marc Almond, Death of a Dan­ dy, last year,” added Danielz, who fronts the band. “It was about a guy called Sebastian, who was a huge Bo­


lan fan, but had a strange and slightly troubled life on the


streets of London before his death. He was a bit of an out-: sider, from a well-to-do fam­ ily apparently, and the black sheep I suppose. “He was a free spirit, the


type of person Marc Bolan would have loved. It was fan­ tastic working with Marc Al­ mond. He’s a huge T Rex fan and changed his Christian


v name from Mark to Marc for his love ofT Rex.” - ^ T Rextasy are endorsed by


not only Marc’s family, but as the world’s only official tribute to Marc Bolan and T Rex. ? a ; “I look at some tribute


bands and they don’t have the passion, but hopefully people see us as creating the spirit of Marc Bolan live and to give them a feeling what a T Rex gig would have been like. I’m • probablyoneofthefewtribute ‘ artists that does not actually go on stage as Marc. ■ ^ “I live right in the middle


i between Marc and Danielz - but what I’ve never done is dis­ respect Marc in anyway. I’m


not a parody of Marc Bolan.” .- • T Rextasy, I Love to Boog­
