Uncut, 05/01/2005, p.146, "Trextasy never looked or sounded so addictive as on this outstanding document of the ultimate glam icon." Release NoteDVD Features: DVD Features: Product NotesBy 1972, the seminal English glam-rock band T-Rex was at the height of what came to be known as "T-Rexstacy:" they had already scored three of their soon-to-be ten straight Top 10 hits; their landmark 1971 album ELECTRIC WARRIOR was still riding the charts; critics were declaring them to be "bigger than The Beatles;" and fans were aping singer-songwriter-guitarist Marc Bolan's iconic sartorial style. To celebrate their success, Bolan and T-Rex played two sold-out performances at London's Wembley Empire Pool, captured on film by none other than former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr and released as the now-legendary concert film BORN TO BOOGIE. The only existant recording of a full T-Rex concert, BORN TO BOOGIE is centered around the dual live performances (with Ringo and Elton John guest starring on two tracks) and interspersed with an acoustic set filmed at John Lennon's mansion, goofy backstage footage of Bolan, and surreal sequences of nuns and dwarves inserted for visual effect.

By Roe
Born to Boogie is a gem. The concert footage is great, the band rocks, the songs
rock (and still sound great today) and Marc Bolan is really entertaining to
watch and listen to. The interviews that his son Rolan does are very interesting
also. This is much better than I expected and Im sorry I didnt buy the 2 DVD
set. I may still do that. If youre a T Rex fan, this is a must have. Great job
Ringo!
