Wednesday Weirdness: Marc Bolan & T Rex

One more example that weird doesn't necessarily mean bad...in fact, in the case of Marc Bolan, weird means totally and completely superb. The sound, the lyrics ("Well you're built like a car, You've got a hub cap diamond star halo, You're built like a car, oh yeah"), the look (Russell Brand long before Russell Brand)--everything completely eccentric. T Rex molded glam rock to Bolan's image, a modern day Dorian Gray with a better sense of humor.
