Bolan's Zip Gun, 1975
Written by Marc Bolan
This song was originally issued as a Marc Bolan solo credit, but subsequent releases have listed it as a T. Rex work. It got some middling reviews at the time, and some fans seem to think it's a shambling parody of his earlier work, though today opinion is divided. Me, I'm no longtime Bolan aficionado, so I can't see the forest, just this particular tree. To my ears, the funky disco keyboards provide a nice complement to Bolan's indulgent vocals, and the whole is a catchy, peppy burst of glam rock.
