Dinosaurs

OK, I get it now. I have to admit, I was skeptical of getting into T. Rex, then I heard "Diamond Meadows". Damn, I love this song. It's got a Lou Reed thing to it, but it sounds better. Damn it sounds good. I'll say it again. It sounds really good. Marc Bolan is the man. I used to love "Bang A Gong" when I was a kid, but never really liked what I heard recently when I tried to get into his stuff. Then I heard Sean Lennon's version of "Would I Be the One", and really liked it, only to find out that it was a Marc Bolan song (sort of). Marc was a really talented composer and he had a really great understanding of chord structure. I think I've found a new artist to bury myself in for awhile....
