Check out the new blog - another continuation of the lengthy 1972 Rolling Stone article! In this segment, Marc discusses magic... 6 New Dandy tracks are up on the player, albeit the very disappointing "new and improved" myspace player, which, as you'll see stops playing at the fifth song just to show you an advertisement. The new player is rubbish!!!!!!!
Boogie On!

This week is Elvis week, and I almost forgot! Marc used to listed to Elvis EVERY Saturday, so in honour of him, we've posted some Elvis-h tracks!
Also, we've just got our own Marc youtube channel "MarcBolanLive". There will be high quality videos uploaded to that every now and again - subscribe if you like. The channel can be found at: youtube.com/marcbolanlive
Meanwhile, this Marc Bolan tribute page is growing stronger - every few days, it shows up in 6th place on a google search for "Marc Bolan", and this page (along with T.Rex & Tyrannosaurus Rex pages) has gotten 4,873 page views since we got our 'site-meter' hooked up on 28 July 2008!
On average, about 158 unique people visit these pages every day! How cool!
Anyhow, that's it for this update, but remember to keep a little Marc in your heart, and tune in the same Marc time, same Marc space!
