Guest PULPY Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Once me and my dad were listening to zep in the car and he said the problem with t rex is that they're really one hit wonders.

Gnar Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 What are they like?? I've never heard any of their stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zipgunboogie Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 well there early stuff from like 67 till 70 is really folk sounding. just an acoustic guitar and a Bongo player. one of the most unique sounds that a band came up with. in 1971 he realesed ''electric warrior'' wich was really his first electric album. that has Jeepster on it and '' Bang a gong(get it on)in 1974 he released '' zinc alloy and the riders of tomarrow'' that sounds more like david bowie, elton john almost. its more pop.his lyrics are J.R.R Tolkein innfluenced. and he really liked Bob Dylan. id say get ''electric warrior'' or ''the slider'' those are my favs. his music is really up beat. but is deffinently rock.
