Glam Rock & Spot the Piano Player...

My earlier blog post titled 'No you won't fool - The Children of the Revolution' had me scurrying off to Glam Rock days to check my understanding of T-Rex/Marc Bolan's lyric was correct - well what a wee trip down memory lane that was. I loved Glam Rock - Sweet, T Rex, Slade, Alice Cooper, Lou Reed, David Bowie and my personal favourite (The thinking man's glam rockers I like to tell myself) The Sensational Alex Harvey Band.

I never had the guts to become a Glam Rocker - but damn I came close as this picture from when I was fifteen testifies (quite what my sister thought she was I'm unsure)...


Anyway, I was watching T Rex perform 'Get it On - Bang a Gong' and noticed the piano player - at that time he was a relatively minor musician - take a look see if you recognise him :) I had no idea he played on this track...
