About this album

Electric Warrior is the defining statement that turned T. Rex into glam rock standard-bearers. Released in 1971, the album sharpened Marc Bolan’s gift for infectious riffs, sly romance and knowing swagger, with Tony Visconti’s production giving the songs a punchy, commercially vital edge. Lead single Get It On became a major hit and the record’s blend of rock’n’roll muscle, pop melody and decadent attitude helped set the template for the glam era. Cosmetically loaded yet brilliantly concise, it remains one of British rock’s most influential and best-loved albums.
