Blarg. This article needs to be POV'd like all hell. ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 15:30, May 7, 2005 (UTC)

Track Commentary[edit]

Is the commentary for each track really necessary for this album?

Onto something more to do with the album itself. Did Bolan play any other instruments aside from the multiple guitars?

Can't answer the second question but as a campaigner against long-standing red links, I'd strongly recommend getting rid of the song links until or unless the relevant articles are written. There is precedent for each track having its own article, Bowie and early Roxy Music albums have it to decent effect, but one always should ask whether every song really needs an article or can be discussed, briefly, within the album page.

John Peel[edit]

According to his autobiography/biography Margrave of the Marshes, legendary British DJ and former Bolan friend John Peel disliked this album, despite admiring the production values, and felt that MB had lost his way. Worth a mention? --Ef80 (talk) 18:39, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
