The only paranormal thing about Bolan is how quickly he got memoryholed after he passed.

Lost respect for him after I found out he had a black son

The right people never forgot about him. T. Rex after the '70s has been 'your favorite band's favorite band'-core

>how quickly he got memoryholed
dumb premise
>>
>>131695462
I think I have a few reason
He died abruptly young
He only had a few good albums
Didn't deviate/ inovate in his style
He was overshadowed by David Bowie

>Didn't deviate/ inovate in his style
lmao he went from acoustic, starry eyed, mystic folk to electric glam/funk rock. his career is split into two easily definable and totally different periods
>>
>>131698651
The folk era was rather short lived because of Steve took leaving. Unicorn is a great album though. There is 9 boogie woogie rock albums and just 4 folky albums. Electric warrior and unicorn is clearly the best but he did have a music formula

hwut
4 albums is longer than most artists careers. the fact remains, he started out with a settled and very clearly identifiable style which he made successful and then changed it entirely when the hippie age had passed, heavier/rockier music became a thing in the 70s and existing bands had to reinvent themselves if they wanted to stay commercially successful. you actually literally physically cannot deny this.
I challenge you, I fucking double dare you, to play Afghan Woman immediately followed by Telegram Sam then come back and post "Marc Bolan did not deviate in this style" without feeling like a complete idiot
stop it
