Between 1995 and 1997, Edsel released eight full-length CDs of Marc Bolan's previously unreleased demos, alternate takes, unused and abandoned songs and unfinished recordings. These CDs were deleted in 2001. Since then, copies of the rare original individual releases have changed hands for foolish amounts of money and sellers on ebay have offered to pirate the entire set! Edsel is now proud to announce the re-issue of all 8 CDs in a limited edition bound book set, with extensive brand new annotation by Mojo writer Mark Paytress, author of the acknowledged definitive Bolan biography “Bolan: The Rise and Fall of a 20th Century Superstar”.
The T. Rex Unchained series of releases features the wealth of unreleased and unfinished material that Marc Bolan constantly recorded throughout his all-too-brief career. Recorded in studios, hotel rooms and anywhere he could set up a tape recorder, the series chronicles a less-seen side of a rocker who was an all-out media sensation for a couple of years in the early '70s. Presented in a fantastic bound book set featuring extensive brand new annotation by Mojo Magazine and Marc Bolan biographer Mark Paytress. Superb outer book style picture sleeve with 28-page integral booklet and mounted picture wallets for each disc. Fabulous, comprehensive 'unreleased' set in 'as new' condition!

Talk about going out with a "Bang"... (...A Gong... from Chuck Barris might be in order here...). Thing is, it'd be most welcome, if (and I'm sure that the "Tox"-ish one would not mind...) some friendly folks reading this would reactivate past, now dead Toxx-ic links… Uh… starting perhaps with the dead FLAC ones HERE (por favor?!):
