I'd never heard of him until I was asked that question after a gig tonight. He died before I was born. But having just downloaded a Bolan's greatest hits collection, I can see what they were getting at.

One of our tunes is very similar to Bolan's Teenage Dream and another is close to his Telegram Sam.

I can do androgyny as well as the next man (or woman), but this is the first time I've ever been compared to a real star. :cool:

Especially not in a mini...the car, not the skirt! Though if you wish to wear one then that's your business :-)))

Anyone know what his last hit was? :eek: (BTW How can you possibly have anything to do with Music and never have heard of him?) Try these, John Lennon?
Buddy Holly? :roll:

It's because Bolan died before Mr Symmetry was born. Who else hasn't he heard of then?

My eyes rolled at the mention of Marc Bolan in the same sentence as those two music Gods. Talented enough bloke, but really?

Lol! I should have said I'd heard of Bolan, but I wasn't familiar with his music.

I am now. :cool:
