T. Rex - “Bang a Gong (Get It On)” (1971)
Originally titled simply “Get It On,” the song was retitled in the US to avoid confusion with a song by the American band Chase. The song’s popularity helped propel the exceptional Electric Warrior album to the top of the UK Album Charts, and it became the best-selling album of 1971. Despite the band’s enduring legacy and influence, “Get It On” is T. Rex’s only North American hit.

So I’ve seen some wild live rock and metal footage, and the modern bands are just shy of being a Cirque du Soleil act in and of themselves. And yet they don’t quite reach the sheer chaos that Marc Bolan and T Rex have in this clip from their performance on the Smothers Brothers(?) like the outfits, the backup singers, the tambourine chaos, the WHIP! Sheer chaos that outdoes even the most firework-laden and heavily choreographed modern concert

On what would have been Marc Bolan’s 75th birthday, I’m kicking off the weekend with the T. Rex song Get It On.
In addition to Bolin on lead vocals and guitar, T. Rex bassist Steve Currie and drummer Bill Legend, the recording also features Rick Wakeman (The Strawbs, Yes) on piano and hammond organ, Ian McDonald (King Crimson) on baritone and alto saxophones, and Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan, aka Flo & Eddie, (The Turtles, Mothers of Invention) on backing vocals.
