T. Rex - Light Of Love

T. Rex — Light of Love

50th Anniversary Edition on 140-gram orange vinyl

Special edition of U.S.-only release from 1974

Combines eight newly-recorded tracks with three from the Zinc Alloy album

Features "Till Dawn," Bolan's last collaboration with Tony Visconti

Demon Records presents a Special 50th Anniversary Edition of this US-only release from late 1974, originally released on the Casablanca Records label, founded only a year earlier.

Marc Bolan and T. Rex had recorded eight tracks in the U.S., which were destined for release on the band's 1975 U.K. album release "Bolan's Zip Gun." But previous album Zinc Alloy had not been released in the US, and Bolan was keen to have a new album available.

So Light Of Love combined the eight newly-recorded tracks with three from the Zinc Alloy album — "Teenage Dream," "Explosive Mouth" and "Venus Loon." Among the new tracks was "Till Dawn," Bolan's last collaboration with Tony Visconti, responsible for the string arrangement on the track.

Pressed on 140-gram orange vinyl, and housed in the original sleeve design, with a new inner sleeve.
