Rex\u2019s monumental ELECTRIC WARRIOR album on April 23rd 2012. It will be preceded by a box set of singles produced especially for Record Store Day 2012 (April 21st 2012).\r\rThese new editions are crammed with previously unreleased demos and out-takes - the centrepiece of which is original producer Tony Visconti\u2019s re-mastered version of Electric Warrior.\r\rThis year is the 40th Anniversary of Glam Rock, or Glamiversary as some have christened it. Electric Warrior was T. Rex\u2019s second album, released in September 1971. It was T. Rex\u2019s No. 1 single \u201cHot Love\u201d which sparked a movement that gathered pace throughout 1971 to become a fully-fledged phenomenon in 1972. 1971 was the year Marc Bolan broke big, and thanks to a touch of glitter under his eye when performing \u201cHot Love\u201d on the March 10th edition of Top Of The Pops, he was to herald a new pop era, Glam or Glitter Rock. By the end of 1971 Bolan and Rexmania was as close as anyone had come to Beatlemania since 1963.\r\rElectric Warrior topped the UK album charts twice, from December 18th 1971 to January 29th 1972 and again from February 5th to February 19th 1972.\r\r\rThe centrepiece is original producer Tony Visconti\u2019s re-mastered version of Electric Warrior, which is presented with four bonus tracks - the non-album single, \u201cHot Love\u201d (No. 1 in February 1971) plus the B-sides \u201cThere Was A Time / Raw Ramp\u201d, \u201cKing Of The Mountain Cometh\u201d and \u201cWoodland Rock\u201d. \r\rThe second disc in the Deluxe and Super-Deluxe editions opens with Marc Bolan reciting a previously unreleased poem titled \u201cThe Electric Warrior\u201d which was recorded for a US Radio promo that is featured in full at the end of the album.\r\rThis is followed by an alternative version of the Electric Warrior album comprised from previously unreleased demos and out-takes. In addition there are unreleased demos recorded in London and New York of a recently discovered untitled instrumental from the \u201cHot Love\u201d sessions and a T. Rex cover of Carl Perkins\u2019 rockabilly classic \u201cHoney Don\u2019t\u201d. \r\rThe Limited Edition Super Deluxe Edition of Electric Warrior will be housed in a lavish box set which is foil blocked and de-bossed and will contain the two CDs plus a DVD of rare and unreleased TV performances and promos by the group, and a wealth of additional items - alongside a 32-page hardback book featuring a brand new essay from Bolan biographer Mark Paytress (including new interviews with those who were close to Marc). The box also includes reproductions of rare photos and memorabilia: a poster including a timeline, three photographs, a coaster and a vintage press release. \r\rThe DVD includes the only two surviving Top of the Pops performances from the BBC archive of T Rex\u2019s Electric Warrior-era hits \u2013 \u201cHot Love\u201d and \u201cGet It On\u201d, the latter featuring Elton John. The DVD also includes the previously unseen Blue Screen versions of \u201cJeepster\u201d and \u201cLife\u2019s A Gas\u201d from Germany\u2019s Beat Club plus the actual broadcast versions of \u201cJeepster\u201d and \u201cLife\u2019s A Gas\u201d. The rarely seen official promo videos for \u201cGet It On\u201d and \u201cJeepster\u201d are also included, plus live performances of \u201cGirl\u201d and \u201cCosmic Dancer\u201d which were recorded at the performance of T. Rex\u2019s historic Wembley Empire Pool concerts on March 18th 1972. These were not included in the concert film Born To Boogie which used none of the matin\xe9e concert footage.\r\rTony Visconti\u2019s re-mastered version of the album will be released on vinyl for the very first time as a double LP.\r1.
