5.0 out of 5 stars You'll Wonder Why You Haven't Heard of This Album Before!! REALLY!!, June 17, 2007
By starsinmybeard "Joel" (Portland, ME USA) - See all my reviews
A Sonic Masterpiece. Period. Probably the most exciting album ever made- by Marc Bolan or anybody for that matter. This is the most intense hook-filled plethora of Pop/Rock and Roll/Glam nonsensical, wonderful music and lyrics ever! All I can picture is 'Through the Looking Glass' or 'Alice in Wonderland'(maybe his mad hatter's style hat) driven by the best Les Paul riff-driven 4th generation Rock and Roll you can imagine! This music is as stirring as The Beatles or The Kinks in their prime.
Buy it before you go any longer without.....perhaps try some other T.Rex such as 'Electric Warrior' (another gem)first and get geared up!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Slider by T-Rex, January 31, 2009
Slider

I used to think "Electric Warrior" was the best T-Rex album of them all,... until I really repeatedly listened to "The Slider".

What Marc Bolan & Company started to do musically on the Warrior disc, reached it's apex on The Slider album. That whole combination of great, choppy Chuck Berry-like guitar hook riffs, funny, loopy lyrics & just all around heavy metal thunder wall of sound bombastics shows the band at it's peak. Even the quieter tunes rock!

My personal favorites, "Metal Guru", "Chariot Choogle", "Mystic Lady", "Ballrooms of Mars", & "Rabbit Fighter", sound like a great mini space-travel rock opera soundtrack.

Ideally, to me, both this disc AND the Electric Warrior disc should both be enjoyed together. They make a potent case for T-Rex & Marc Bolan's place in rock & roll history that greatly deserves to be remembered and appreciated more than it presently seems to be.

Definatly both worth checking out if you have'nt done so already!
