Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow

Limited LP: Clear vinyl / Ltd Silver Vinyl + Bonus 12" (HMV)

LP : Standard Black Vinyl

Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow is the 1974 album by Marc Bolan and T. Rex. The album was preceded by hit singles “The Groover” and “Truck On (Tyke)” includes the follow-up hit “Teenage Dream”. The results of listening to black radio stations whilst touring the US during 1973 are apparent on this album, something of an oft-overlooked treasure trove.

Deluxe 2CD

In this special 2CD set, CD2 contains “The Alternate Zinc Alloy: Change”, a bonus disc of 24 fascinating ‘work-in-progress’ versions and demos, which (as far as possible) mirrors the original album’s running order.
