Marc Bolan had passed away five years earlier, EMI releases this compilation of some great music from T. Rex and its not all glam rock, some outstanding tracks lifted from the fantastic Slider album and Lean Woman Blues from 1970 also an outstanding song, sooooo good, if you are into the blues!

T Rex - 20 Golden Greats (Compilation)

EMI Australia

Cat# PLAY 1014

1982

Australian release

Cover is in good condition, no seam splits, no writing but light creasing on the front and small graphic damage on the front up in the right hand top corner.

New inner plastic sleeve

Vinyl is in good - very good condition, visually examined carefully using a white halogen light source and I can see two light but LONG scratches on Side A and nothing at all on Side B. It is really not possible to accurately judge a vinyl record from a simple visual inspection so I then played the ENTIRE album, every single track.

The two scratches on Side A do cause light clicks/pops from near the end of track 4 (The Motivator) right through to the runout (yes one scratch is pretty long!) but the level stays consistent and relatively low level throughout.

I am talking light clicks here, not great horrible thumps! and certainly no mistracking.

The unmentioned tracks on Side A (1,2,3) are all clear of these clicks and Side B also plays without clicks/pops

There are no significant issues with surface noise on either side.

This is one real nostalgia trip, man! - nice play.
