whichever you prefer.
I'm a fan, but the prices of his available material is RIDICULOUS.
We just went on a used cd hunt and ended up at a store and got some disc of a show he did for the BBC. We got that disc for $10, new.
But the guy went on a rant about something about how he got into some disagreement with his record label and something about how the Japanese bought up a lot of their/his stuff and re-release it for a LOT of money.
I didn't know the Japanese part, but I knew that there was some kind of "tie up" with their/his music and now that he's dead, his son seen ABSOLUTELY no royalties to his stuff what-so-ever.
It's ridiculous. I own Electric Warrior, T.Rex, The Slider, Unicorn, some unchained disc, Bolan's Zipgun, and the BBC disc.
And believe me, all but Electric Warrior and the Unchained disc cost me over $20 per disc.
I love Marc Bolan, though. He had a fabulous voice and was pretty talented. But he lost tolerance with the business and was quite full of himself, though he was a fragile human being.
Any other Bolan fans here?
