Thanks for the comments everyone.

It's just an octave. But I duplicated the track and time-shifted it slightly to give it some separation. It gives it a thicker, richer sound.

Huge Bolan fan here too...this is fabulous.

Great guitar work 64G, the tone of the rhythm electric sounds so damn close to that original T Rex sound and the production is first class.

All this topped of with a classy Greeny vocal just added to the overall excellence of it all.

The title threw me but as I listened it came back.  Nice T Rex cover guys!  Greeny's vocal sounds great and 64 the shifted octave lead solo is cool, cool, cool! It reminds me of the unique guitar sound that backs up the lines "I need a fix cause I'm going down" on the Beatles Happiness Is A Warm Gun. Well done fellas!

I got into T-Rex by listening to Paul and Bruno at the open mics :) - this is fabulous, what a killer combo - love the guitar sounds and the vox is just perfect.

I remember this being the b-side to Jeepster, which I bought in my fledgling vinyl days.
It's a great song & your version is only bettered by the original ... and ... this.

Well, I do know this one - another Marc fan here, I figured out how to move on stage by watching Born To Boogie :D (and sooner or later a cover of some sort -stripped down probably - of one of his might crop up from me)

This is a SUPERB version guys.
