T. Rex - Bang A Gong (get It On)


Initially a British psychedelic folk duo called Tyrannosaurus Rex fronted by guitarist/vocalist Marc Bolan (born Mark Feld) with Steve Peregrin Took (born Stephen Porter). They became glam rock pioneers and shortened their name to T. Rex in 1970. They had a series of top ten hits in the UK, including four number one singles. In America, the group only had one major hit - "Bang a Gong (Get It On)". They retained a following until Marc Bolan's death in 1977.
