TREXXX
The previous post featuring Oasis in “Cigarettes and Alcohol”: many say they ripped the main riff off from wizard T. Rex, and his song “Get it On (Bang a Gong)”. Which… I love. So sharesies.
T. Rex tends to have that syncopated feel, though. My other fave, “The Motivator”, shows parallel patterns…

i had a phase ’98 when i listened to nothing but t. rex for three months. i made some horrible crepes midway through. i also traveled to baltimore. learned about steely dan.
after that, i developed a respect for david bowie.
and i still think marc bolan is the best thing that happened to music.
get on the earlier stuff, tho. late 60s / 1970. that stuff up there is the major radio material.
