"Life's a Gas" - T Rex cover by 64Guitars and Greeny

[64Guitars]

Greeny's a big Marc Bolan/T Rex fan so I thought it would be great to do a T Rex cover for 70sFest. I like T Rex a lot too but I'm only familiar with the album "The Slider" which I have on vinyl and a few of their hits. So I asked Greeny to suggest a few songs and this one struck me right away. It's from their 1971 "Electric Warrior" album and I think it's a great song. So thanks, Greeny, for introducing me to this great song and for providing a brilliant vocal track.

Brilliant. Takes me back to when I first listened to Electric Warrior. This was my favourite song on the album. Thanks guys.

[cuthbert]

Fantastic!

I'm a big T. Rex fan myself, and this is a faithful and well-done cover. Great vocal Tim, and 64G, you outdid yourself on the guitars and drums.

[Greeny]

Woo-hoo! This is the first time I've heard the finished mix - beautiful job, Mr 64!!!! That solo is a killer! And thanks so much for allowing me to sing this one. It was a very special treat. Got a big smile on now :-)

[kenny mac]

Great cover and brill performances from both of you. T Rex were one of the first bands I was into and still have a few of their singles. Not heard this one for a long time, well done!!

[Geir]

wow, this is special. Agree with what Cuthbert said, really excellent work 64g. And the vocals show true passion for the music.

bravo!

really cool solo too, sounds like more than an octave ... is it?
