Rextasy’ and is proof of Bolan’ s extraordinary and enduring appeal across the generations.The Slider contained two UK Number 1 hit singles, Telegram Sam and Metal Guru and the first to bear the T. Rex Wax Co imprint, a seal of approval from EMI Records, who felt Bolan sufficiently important to warrant having his own record label.This edition features the complete album remastered by producer Tony Visconti and Ted Jensen.Pressed on 180g clear vinyl for the first time.
