Tanx

Description

Tanx is the 1973 studio album by the legendary band T. Rex. The eighth album since their debut under the name Tyrannosaurus Rex in 1968, and the fourth under the name T Rex. Recorded at the height of Bolanmania, and produced by Tony Visconti, Tanx moves away musically from earlier works. While containing tracks in the vein of The Slider, singer and songwriter Marc Bolan showed his interest in soul, funk, and gospel music. The tracks include Tenement Lady, Bolan Boogie, and Mad Donna. The artwork for this special edition was recreated by original designer John Kosh, former creative director at Apple Records and the designer behind iconic album covers such as The Beatles' Abbey Road and The Who's Who's Next. This special edition of the record contains an unpublished color image of Marc Bolan taken by Peter Howe during the legendary photo session.
