Additional information
This is a collection of live tracks and alternate takes. Includes liner notes by Roy Trakin. COSMIC DANCER is a two-disc compilation of work by the glam rock icon T. Rex, all of which is live and previously unreleased. "Debora," "Cosmic Dancer," and "Ride a White Swan" are among the T.Rex classics included. At first glance, Greatest Songs: Cosmic Dancer would seem an excellent introduction to the world of Marc Bolan and T. Rex as evidenced by the inclusion of key tracks like "20th Century Boy," "Get It On," "Telegram Sam," and "Children of the Revolution." What it doesn't tell you on the initial packaging is that almost all of the tracks are alternate or live takes. Fans looking for a solid collection from T. Rex would be much better off with 2007's Greatest Hits from Universal or Hip-O's 20th Century Boy: The Ultimate Collection. ~ James Christopher Monger
