glam rock fans?

I’m with Hooper’s assessment of Marc Bolan. One could argue if T.Rex- Electric Warrior wasn’t the genisus of Glam-Rock all by it self. Then on to Bowie with Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders from Mars and Aladdin Sane by the end of Diamond Dogs the psychedelic twinkle of glam started to fade. It was short lived but all in all some gender twisting, mind blowing good rock. Roxy Music carried the torch from s/t thru Manifesto with seven Lps in all. Some consider that the start of Art-Rock. Equally arguable is where glam ended as a genre. There were albums by Bowie and Roxy Music beyond glam well worth owning IMHO, as you may well know. Bowie’s -Pin Ups, Station to Station, Low and Roxy’s - Flesh + Blood and Avalon are excellent. Then depending on how far off a tangent from there you care to swing there is Todd Rundgren’s -Something/Anything, Eno’s -Another Green World, Lenny Kravitz- Mama Said, Prince… and the list goes on. Enjoy!

Sgore1 mentions Lou Reed's "Transformer" and I was thinking that I didn't mention the Velvet Underground, Opps! In my opinion probably the grandaddy of Art-Rock bands with great albums like the V/U & nico, White light/White heat, s/t and of course Loaded. Loaded is one of my all time fav's. These guys influenced a lot of band. This is such a cool hobby! Enjoy!

Does everyone concerned know that Speakers Corner Records has re-released "Transformer"?! And it sounds as good as a brit first issue of the times.
