Captured at the peak of T. Rextasy, ‘Born To Boogie’ is the Ringo Starr-directed 1972 film of the Godfather of Glam, Marc Bolan.
Featuring live versions of T. Rex’s greatest hits, recorded at their famous Wembley concerts, the film also includes a legendary jam session with T.Rex joined by Ringo Starr and Elton John, and a mad hatter’s tea party with Catweazle and (Bolan/Bowie producer) Tony Visconti.
Available in several formats and packages:
2DVD+2CD DELUXE EDITION: [ Ссылка ]
The deluxe edition also features the only live T.Rex concerts filmed on 16mm with a soundtrack recorded to 8- and 16-track, mixed to 5.1 by Tony Visconti, as well as numerous extra features, some previously unreleased, and two CDs of the two concerts.
Housed in a beautiful book with new annotation by Mark Paytress and previously unpublished Keith Morris photos (and trays for all four discs), ‘Born To Boogie’ is the ultimate film of Marc Bolan and superstardom in the early 1970s.
