If it's true that you can never have too much of a good thing, Marc Bolan fans must positively ecstatic round about now. THE T. REX WAX CO. SINGLES: A’S AND B’S 1972-77 was released on 11th June 2002 via Demon Music Group and Edsel Records. Frst, full disclosure is necessary as to what's missing. On this glorious 44-track, double-CD collection, there isn't one track from T. Rex's Electric Warrior. That's right, "Bang a Gong," "Mambo Sun," and "Jeepster" are all absent. Why? It appears Warner is recalcitrant to license that wondrous album to anyone in any form. It turns out that this is simply a small complaint because none of the tracks from Electric Warrior should be separated from its full corpus anyway. It is an album in the purest and more literal sense of the world. Getting to what is here, listeners do get tracks from that beautiful slab The Slider as well as Tanx, Light Of Love , Bolan's Zip Gun, Dandy In The Underworld, Futuristic Dragon, and a slew of 45s never issued on LP. Since Marc Bolan's own label issued its first greatest-hits package back in 1973, there has been no shortage of collections rounding up the peerless sequence of singles, some with multiple B-sides, released between January 1972 and Bolan's death in September 1977. Indeed, this set was itself just a few months old when its contents were redistributed across two box sets' worth of CD singles, each one replicating the original U.K. 45. As a simple one-stop chronological gathering of the Bolan jukebox at its born-to-boogie best, however, this two-disc package is hard to beat. In common with the two single-disc collections that it supersedes, the discs are divided neatly between A-sides (disc one) and B-sides (disc two), a running order that traces Bolan first from "Telegram Sam" to "Celebrate Summer" and then from "Cadillac" to "Ride My Wheels". And it would be futile to try and pretend that the B-sides disc, at least, does not have its highs and lows, as it swings from the tight sexuality and swaggering electricity of the 1972 vintage "Lady", "Thunderwing", and "Born To Boogie", to the somewhat plodding disco offcuts that were "Groove A Little", "Tame My Tiger," and "Dock Of The Bay". The A-sides disc, on the other hand, offers an unyieldingly even footing, not every Bolan single was a major hit, but every one should have been, and the thrill of hearing even such mid-decade slump epics as "Light Of Love", "London Boys", and "Laser Love" is not diminished by repetition. Meanwhile, the opening salvo of "Telegram Sam", "Metal Guru", and "Children Of The Revolution" offers a dramatic overture that few, if any, acts have even come close to emulating. Right, it's packed with nary a dolt in the whole mess. While much of this has been compiled in other places, this one's remastered sound takes precedence over the rest of the lot. If you are enough of a Marc Bolan freak to want a T. Rex orgy once in a while and don't need all the studio LPs, but you're not a rabid completist, then pick this one up, and you will have a listening experience of thoroughly unexpected results at your disposal. Your need for this collection, of course, is dependant upon how you feel about CD singles. No matter how great they look, they will never share the iconic status of an original 7" single, and, until someone invents a CD player that will let you stack the suckers up in a heap, and play them like an old-time gramophone, they're just too fidgety to actually enjoy putting on. But, of course, these discs aren't meant to be played. They're here to own, to look at, and to wipe off with a duster every so often. And, by that token, this box is a must-have.
