Rex collection '1974-1977' culls the cream from a plethora of previously unreleased rehearsal takes and studio demos, from arguably the most adventurous and pioneering period of Marc's career. Lovingly mastered and curated from a stash of Marc's own tapes unearthed towards the end of 2024, the recordings are a fascinating document of an artist brimming with renewed vim and creativity. They also document how Marc and his super-hot band kept the tapes rolling when recording all over the world, from London to the USA, to Germany and France and back to Londonn. Included of course is I'm Dazed, the \"lost\" T. Rex single unearthed from those tape boxes in 2024. Remastered and released on cosmic yellow seven-inch on Marc's birthday in 2025 (with a new take of Billy Super Duper on it's B-side), it helped mark the occasion of Marc being awarded an official English Heritage Blue Plaque. The honour made him just one of 5 pop musicians to ever receive the accolade, alongside Freddie Mercury, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley. Two very different takes of I'm Dazed shimmer here: the 2025 single version remixed by Steven Wilson, and another, much slower take, led by languid drums, clavinet and piano. 74-77 comes in 2LP packaging with photography by Kevin Cummins, The set was curated for Demon by \"T. Rexpert\" Martin Barden and mastering undertaken by AIR Studios' Phil Kinrade.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrack List:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Bolan's Zip Gun\u003cbr\u003e2 I Really Love You Babe (Take 5)\u003cbr\u003e3 All Alone (Working Version)\u003cbr\u003e4 Calling All Destroyers (Working Version)\u003cbr\u003e5 Savage Beethoven (Take 4)\u003cbr\u003e6 Bust My Balls (Take 6)\u003cbr\u003e7 I'm Dazed (Take 3)\u003cbr\u003e8 Billy Super Duper (Warm Up)\u003cbr\u003e9 Galaxy Wild (Take 2)\u003cbr\u003e10 Damaged Suit (Take 5)\u003cbr\u003e11 I Never Told You (Take 3)\u003cbr\u003e12 Dreamy Lady (T.O.T.P.
