RE: (TV) t rex/bolan



I'd like to take the next step and say I even liked "Light of Love", which
seems to be reviled by TRex fans themselves.  
To this day I occasionally sing to myself such Bolanism's as:

"Shee-ee-ees cuuu-uu-ute, Girl in the Thunderbolt Suit", or

"Gonna see my baby in the afternoon, gonna take my baby on a Venus Loon"
