The material represented on this unique series of cd's come in the main from four reels of home demo tape recorded by Marc at his London homes between the spring of 1971 and the autumn of 1973. What has been uncovered within these reels are the genuine embryonic beginnings of many Bolan classics. Along with well over a dozen songs discarded as the recording process moved from Marc's four track TEAC A3340 home tape machine all the way to finished studio masters.

It is evident throughout these recordings that even in their early incarnations, a great many of the tracks are already fully realised, complete with lyrics (often completely different from the released versions) and rudimentary guitar overdubs.

Bolan's Creole style vocal warbling and blues influenced chord structures, sit so well within that guitar, vocal framework that the songs themselves could easily have come from any one of a dozen 'Howling Wolf', `Big Bill Broonzy', 'Skip James' or `Robert Johnson' classics.
