AngelHeaded Hipster: The Songs Of Marc Bolan & T. Rex is a tribute album by Various Artists, released in September 2020 via BMG.
An extraordinary tribute album has been released to one of rock's great composers, Marc Bolan, which was also made under the direction of the legendary Hal Willner, who was instrumental in assembling tribute albums and events throughout his career.
AngelHeaded Hipster: The Songs Of Marc Bolan & T. Rex is a collection of major stars including Elton John, U2, Joan Jett, Nick Cave, Peaches and Marc Almond who have reinterpreted and reimagined some of Marc Bolan and T.Rex’s greatest tracks including “Jeepster”, “Bang A Gong (Get It On)”, “Cosmic Dancer” and “Ride A White Swan”.
In Elton John’s autobiography Me, he wrote about his friend Marc Bolan: “Marc seemed to have come from another planet: there was something otherworldly about him, as if he was just passing through Earth on his way somewhere else.” Elton had joined Marc for a performance of “Bang A Gong (Get It On)” back in 1971 on the UK TV show Top of the Pops.
This double album 2LP record set is a limited edition on white coloured vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves, pressed in the UK via BMG.
