O mnie

Ja, o mnie i jeszcze raz ja
In the East London suburb of Hackney, a working-class Jewish couple, Simeon and Phyllis Feld, were expecting a child. Phyllis worked days at a fruit stand in Soho while Simeon worked at various odd jobs including cosmetic salesman and truck driver. On September 30th, 1947, the couple gave birth at Hackney General Hospital to a son and they named him Mark, who was to become The Marc Bolan we all knew and loved.
Marc died instantly when the car [a purple mini 1275GT] he was a passenger in crashed into a sycamore tree in Barnes Southwest London on September 16th 1977 2 weeks short of his 30th birthday.
LONG LIVE MARC BOLAN

Now this i find creepy.
In 1969 Marc had a book of poems published called
"the Warlocks of Love"
here is one of the poems


Sycamore of sorrow, pray I’m swallowed
in the swell of your yelling leafy breast.
My crippled bended chest is shamed
through flaming crowsfeet, soaring nouns
of norse confessions,
dark earth gremlins, rootlegged, hobbling
in the cryptess of my turned wound.
Ill-famed fair prince, steal my lightning,
stake me with steel, for my haughtiness.
Straddle my storm head with your abyss shroud.
Call me harlot.
Call me wormywordler.
Everso, but out loud.

  • The Life Of MARC BOLAN

    Biography for
    Marc Bolan

    Birth name
    Mark Feld
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Height
    5' 7" (1.70 m)
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Mini biography
    Mark Feld, born in London, was always destined to be a star. Even as a teenager, he was already seeking fame. Well known as a sharp dresser, he was employed by a modeling agency and became a "John Temple Boy", wearing John Temple suits in their catalogues as well as becoming a cardboard cutout displayed in their shop windows. Many initial attempts to get into the music business failed, and so Marc turned to acting, landing several character parts in some TV shows including a juvenile delinquent on the Sam Kydd TV series - "Orlando" (1965). His first recording, "The Wizard" was released in 1965 and resulted in an appearance on the TV music show "Ready, Steady, Go". Briefly he became a member of 60s group 'John's Children' before forming his own group, Tyrannosaurus Rex. The first Tyrannosaurus Rex single was 'Debora', also a track on the album "My People Were Fair" released in July 1968. Although not a hit the first time around, on its re- release in 1972 when Bolan was at his peak 'Debora' made the UK top 10. In July of 1969, Tyrannosaurus Rex, dropped their folky, hippy sound to go electric with the single "King of The Rumbling Spires". Unfortunately, like his other singles, it failed to take off, only reaching #44. The group shortened its name to T.Rex and finally broke through with the single, "Ride a White Swan" in 1970. This opened the door to a whole series of hit singles including 'Bang a Gong, Get it on' which reached the US top 10 in 1971 as well a series of highly acclaimed albums.

    At the height of his popularity, Bolan had a string of number 1 hit singles in the UK and became a teen idol as well as a leader of the glam rock movement. In 1972, Marc released his own movie, Born to Boogie (1972), featuring among others Ringo Starr. However, due to the rise of 70s soul music, already by 1975 he was in decline, at least sales-wise. As a leading figure for the punk movement in the UK, he provided a forum for new acts to appear on TV via his own music programme. Cruelly, just when he was on the rebound, Marc died in a car crash in 1977.
