There are enough absolute classic tunes on this for 5 stars, even though Bolan's pseudo-mystical persona does seem a bit put-on and somewhat flimsy at times. The directness of this seems like a welcome antidote to the overblown psychedelic Sixties. Very much of its time, but it does sound like some people were having quite a bit of fun then.
For some unknown reason this reminds me of the Metal Micky telly show. It would have been the perfect soundtrack: new, shiny, the future. It still sounds fresh, over fifty years later. Bolan knew how to riff. He's Chuck Berry with an afro perm. The singles of course stand out. Jeepster had me swaying along first thing in the morning, still in my PJ's. There's a certain amount of sorrow, before the boogie picks you up again. Decent.
