Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in 7 Inch Vinyl from T. Rex The last year of recordings of the classic line up of T. Rex Marc Bolan, Steve Currie, Mickey Finn, Bill Legend and with Tony Visconti producing. Recorded in the U.S & Germany less than a month apart. ‘Truck On’ having been demoed acoustically in Tony Visconti’s flat with wife Mary Hopkins harmonising in October 1971 it took 20 months to actually record the song, which was then issued as a single within the next 5 months in November 1973 and was the first T.Rex single to not enter the top 10 stalling as it did at 13 .This version is less polished and much more appealing to fans than the released version it’s been argued. Satisfaction Pony a re recorded final version ended up on the B side of the Teenage Dream single in February 1974 These recordings from Marc’s own tapes part of the material stolen from his & Gloria s house and now repatriated with the estate.
